According to forecasts by Zoopla, the housing prices are expected to remain largely stable throughout the remainder of the year. This observation is substantiated by Nationwide's report indicating a slight drop of 0.1% in housing prices last month. Zoopla also mentions a strengthening market with evidence being the reduction in the number of listings that experienced more than a 5% price cut - a figure that dropped from 28% in February to 18% now. Yet, they concede that the future trend largely hinges on the mortgage market.
