UK Housing Market – First Quarter 2025
As we move into the first quarter of 2025, the UK housing market has shown promising signs of recovery. After a period of uncertainty, the market is stabilizing, with demand increasing in key regions. Mortgage rates have remained relatively competitive, encouraging first-time buyers to re-enter the market. This shift is especially notable as the typical buyer profile has evolved; buy-to-let landlords, once a dominant force, are being replaced by a new wave of homeowners eager to secure their first property. While the market remains somewhat cautious, there is a growing optimism, particularly in cities with strong local economies and desirable locations.
In the property sales sector, we’ve seen certain listings sell in just days, which is a clear sign that well-priced, well-presented homes are still highly sought after. This fast-paced selling environment is becoming more common, especially in areas where demand exceeds supply. The market is becoming increasingly driven by motivated buyers, with properties moving quickly when priced right.
