Confidence is still considerably lower than last March however where confidence was 65 per cent.
Andy Gray, head of mortgages at Barclays and the Woolwich, said: "As predicted confidence is continuing its upward trend as we enter the traditional home buying period. Potential buyers that may have been holding back waiting for the market to stabilise seem to be more confident now, alongside this interest rates have been stable for eight months in a row"
