What's happening in the housing market? 🏡 📉 The average asking price of homes has dropped by 1.7% this month to £360,197, in line with the usual December monthly fall. 👉 We're seeing signs of some movers racing to beat the 1st April 2025 stamp duty deadline. Overall, market activity is significantly stronger than a year ago, with sales up 22% and new buyer demand up by 13%. 👉 Rightmove's traditional Boxing Day Bounce is coming up later in the month, where we usually see a sharp jump in activity between Christmas Day and Boxing Day. In 2023, our visits surged by 273% during this period. Our property expert Timothy Bannister says: “New sellers in December have to work particularly hard to capture the attention of Christmas-party and festivity-distracted buyers, and the 1.7% average monthly fall is a fitting gift for those who are still buying homes rather than presents. We’re continuing to see strong activity in the market as we close out the year, which reflects the growing confidence buyers are feeling about making their moves happen."

The North West continues to be on 🔥… 📣 Spring home-moving season brings surge in new listings: Rightmove 🗞️ Thursday 28th March saw the highest number of new properties listed for sale on Rightmove so far this year. It was the third biggest day for new listings since August 2020, with Boxing Day in 2022 and 2023 being the only days with more homes coming to market in one day 📈 There were 45% more homes added to Rightmove on Thursday 28th March than the previous Thursday 🏘️ 📊 Property expert, Tim Bannister, said: “It’s still a price sensitive market, so while the uptick in activity we’ve seen over the past few months is a positive sign, sellers still need to heed the advice from their agent on pricing competitively to help secure a successful sale.” 👨🏻💻 What’s happening in the housing market right now? The housing market continues its recovery following a muted 2023, with asking prices up by 0.8% over the past year, currently standing at £368,118 across Great Britain 🤯 A regional look compared to pre-covid years shows varying regional price variations, with asking prices up by 29% since March 2020 in Wales, followed closely by the North West by 28% versus just an 8% uplift in London 🇬🇧 Asking prices and sold prices vary however, sold prices are a lagged metric due to the length of the sales process and time it takes to update with land registry but the current outlook is positive ✅ Yet again, it shows the resiliance of the UK property market (as we saw with Brexit, Covid, Conflicts, Cost of Living Crisis and every other time the property market was predicted to crash) coupled with the continued strong performance in the North West region! 🎯🔥

Heads up, sellers! If you are trying to sell your home during this peak season, you might need to prepare yourself for lowball offers. Despite the projections that prices should be coming down, low inventory is keeping home values high. This is creating a situation where a lot of buyers have unreasonable expectations on what kind of deal sellers are willing to accept. That’s why today, I’m sharing my best guide on how to respond to a lowball offer, negotiate, and get the deal you wanted in the first place. To learn more, check out this video.

It’s not you, its me! So many times out of 10 the reason a house doesn’t sell is the price and that’s a fact. But every now and then there’s a property that’s the right price, the right location and has lots of other things going for it and just doesn’t get the interest it deserves. In this instance the house just hasn’t found the right buyer instead of the other way round. Let me know your thoughts on ‘it’s not you (house), it’s me (buyer)!’ Have a good evening Mark #property #sales #itsnotyouitsme #match #sellinghomes #marketinghomes #homesforsale #marketing #price

🏡 Pricing a home with "meat on the bone" to give buyers room to haggle assumes defeat from the start. ❌ A more effective strategy is to set a compelling price that sparks buyer competition. 🔥 Negotiate from a position of strength! 💪 #HomePricingStrategy #RealEstateTips #PricingYourHome #RealEstateColorado #HomeSellingTips #CompetitionInRealEstate #WindsorHomePricing #LovelandRealEstateTips #WindsorHomeSellingStrategies #FortCollinsCompetitivePricing
