US house prices rose in April, Case Shiller index finds

US house prices rose in almost all major cities in April, a closely-watched survey has indicated. The Case Shiller housing index, which is compiled by Standard & Poor's, showed prices rose 0.7% in April from March, on a seasonally-adjusted basis. Nineteen of the 20 cities tracked by the survey showed price rises, marking the third consecutive monthly gain. The survey follows a separate report on Monday that showed new home sales hit a two-year high in May.
