      A crash in British home prices is unlikely but they will dip further this year than earlier thought as the cost of living crisis and rising borrowing costs take their toll on indebted buyers, a Reuters poll showed.

Average house prices were expected to fall a modest 3.0% across 2023, deeper than the 2.4% drop predicted in a February poll but nowhere near the crash some were expecting, the May 16-31 poll of 23 market specialists showed.
