Global house prices rise at slowest pace since 2015 amid inflation and rate pressures, according to Knight Frank survey


Global house prices rose at their slowest pace in the first quarter of 2023 year-on-year since the same period in 2015, and remain under pressure across the world, as central banks continue to tighten policy to rein in inflation, according to a report by Knight Frank.

The first cuts in interest rates may now be delayed until the second half of 2024 for several key markets, leading to fewer transactions and reduced market liquidity for 12 months or more, the consultancy said in a report released on Wednesday.
