The below shows positive signs regarding the start of this year. Given the increased level of choice out there for buyers now it will be interesting to see where sellers choose to price their properties over the following months and what changes this has on their time to find a buyer.

The recent statistics from the property market showcase a noticeable uptick in activity post Christmas, aligning with the broader trends observed during this period. This resonates with my professional experiences as well, as there's been a steady flow of viewing requests, key handovers, and other appointments throughout the month. It seems that both buyers and sellers are keen to get a head start on their 2024 plans, indicating a solid and active start to the year in the property sector. #PropertyMarket #RealEstate #MarketTrends

A record number of homes were listed after Boxing Day last year. Sellers have planned to get their homes ready for the market in time for the New Year when buyer interests usually rise. Estate agents listed nearly triple the number of homes on Boxing Day (+173%) in comparison to the 2019 pandemic which was 46% higher than in 2021. Property expert Tim Bannister says: “We typically see a post-Christmas upturn in buyer activity, with early-bird buyers finishing off their turkey dinners and searching for a new home for the new year. It’s a key reason why we’re seeing more new sellers come to market on Boxing Day, ready for their properties to be the first seen by prospective new buyers. “However, with activity typically increasing from Boxing Day into January, sellers planning to come to market later in January still have time to capitalise on the renewed buyer activity,” he adds. #boxingday #newyear #2024housingmarket #UKproperty #UKrealestate #UKhomes #UKinvestment #UKhousing #UKproperties #PropertyInvestingUK #PropertyInvestment #PropertyNewsUK #RealEstateUK #InvestinginProperty #InvestinUKProperty #UKPropertyMarket #UKRealEstateNews #PropertyInvestorUK #Thursday #ThursdayNews
