A Soft landing for sales market continues to play out as Zoopla’s leading indicators of housing market activity and pricing show a steady and sustained recovery in demand and continued growth in the number of new sales agreed. House price inflation continues to slow but a major price re-correction remains a very low probability. Demand for homes reached its highest level this year after the Easter break and is 14% higher than 2019 levels but still 42% down on this time last year. The stock of homes for sale continues to expand and is now 66% higher than a year ago. Greater availability of homes for sale is boosting choice and the number of new sales being agreed is 6% up on 2019 but in line with the 5-year average. The market remains on track for 500,000 sales in H1 2023.
“Thank you Jonathan and the whole team at Napier Watt for marketing and executing the sale of Buckingham Mews so brilliantly.”
