New Year, New Home

TomS - Head Tom Simper Jan 8, 2025, 13:15 PM

As we enter the new year, many will be seeking a fresh start and making plans to move.

However, with a significant mismatch between the length of time home movers expect a property should take to sell and the reality, its important to align expectations.

82% of home movers expected it to take less than 3 months from under offer to completion but only 43% experienced that.

After the Christmas lull, the new year is a popular time to look to move home. Last year, demand for homes surged in the first few weeks of January. Source: Dataloft by PriceHubble, Property Academy Home Moving Trends Survey 2024, Zoopla.
