The research follows a report from Nationwide revealing that average house prices across the country have edged towards the £200,000 mark.

It said prices had increased 4.8 per cent in February compared with the previous month, reaching £196,930.

It attributed much of the increase to the impending increase in stamp duty on second homes which is due to take effect on April 1.

The stamp duty changes are widely considered to have prompted a 'significant number of purchases' which may lead to the property market cooling this summer.

Simon Rubinsohn, chief economist at RICS, said this week that it is 'inevitable' that April's stamp duty changes will take some of the current heat out of the housing market.
