FX.co ★ UK Lloyds House Price Index Slides Deeper Into Negative Territory in October

The Lloyds House Price Index for the United Kingdom weakened further in October 2026, pointing to increasing pressure on the housing market. According to the latest data updated on 6 November 2026, the index fell by 0.6% month-over-month, a sharper decline than the 0.1% drop recorded in September 2026.

On a month-over-month comparison basis, the October reading shows that price momentum has deteriorated: while September’s figure was only marginally negative, October’s deeper contraction suggests softening demand or rising supply in the market. The data indicate that the negative trend in UK house prices not only continued into October but also intensified compared with the previous month.
