The housing market shows no sign of slowing, suggests consumer confidence figures from Woolwich. Research this month shows average consumer confidence at 61% throughout the UK during April. In April 2001, average confidence was at 48%. Andy Gray, head of mortgage products for Woolwich said: ‘Confidence figures are at their highest levels ever throughout the UK. With house price inflation at 15% to 16% some are suggesting a late 1980’s style bubble has developed. In our opinion, this is wrong.’
