We have found out that it is taking longer to get a sale agreed throughout every UK region, with the East Midlands experiencing the largest percentage increase in time to sell. ⌛ It's now taking an average of 72 days across the UK to find a seller, that's up from 55 this time last year. Nevertheless, the property market is looking buoyant with the number of agreed sales 16% higher so far this year compared to 2023. New instructions are also up 10% and it’s very pleasing to see that the time to complete from SSTC has fallen marginally over the last year.

The latest figures from the Bank of England show that mortgage approvals for January sit at 55,227, up from 51,506 in December. Approvals are up 7.2% month on month and 40.2% up year on year (Jan 2023 figure was 39,382). January marks the fourth consecutive increase and approvals are now at their highest level since June 2023 (53,953). Commenting on the latest figures Benham and Reeves director Marc von Grundherr said: “Buyer indecision has been the biggest factor slowing the property market over the last year and who can blame them with interest rates climbing and mortgage offers changing by the day. “However, we simply haven’t seen the same level of hesitation in recent months and market stability has improved notably since interest rates were first held in September of last year. He added: “This confidence boost has naturally led to an increase in mortgage approvals and sellers are already starting to benefit from a greater degree of interest and an increase in the number of offers submitted.” EasyMoney founder and chief executive Jason Ferrando, commented: “A fourth consecutive increase in mortgage approvals demonstrates that buyer confidence is on the up, despite the base rate remaining at a lofty 5.25%. “While buyers are continuing to tread with a degree of caution we’re already seeing this uplift in mortgage market activity start to filter through to the wider market and help stimulate sold prices in a positive manner”. He added: “These early signs suggest that the property market is set for a far more settled year and this is good news for both homebuyers and sellers alike.” If you’re looking for mortgage advice and want to discuss your affordability when it comes to getting a mortgage, contact our friendly team of advisers today.
