A Peek into the 2025 Property Market. 🏡

As we begin the new year, the UK property market is already showing promising signs. Rightmove's latest House Price Index reveals that 2025 is off to a strong start, with prices maintaining their upward momentum.

For Sellers

If you're considering selling your property, now is an excellent time. With the Stamp Duty changes set to take effect in April, many buyers are eager to move quickly to benefit from lower rates. Rightmove predicts a 4% rise in new seller asking prices this year, setting sellers up for a strong start to the year. Additionally, the surge in buyer activity typically seen on Boxing Day has carried over into the new year, providing a great opportunity for sellers to capitalise on the increased demand.

For Buyers

The forecasted drop in mortgage rates is expected to improve affordability in 2025, making it an ideal time to begin your property search. With the Stamp Duty changes looming, it's essential to get organised and start your search as early as possible to meet the April deadline. New listings are already appearing on the market, providing buyers with a fresh selection of properties to choose from.
