Ready for a Boxing Day bounce?

Dewi Dewi Jones Dec 24, 2024, 12:30 PM

In recent years, a 'Boxing Day bounce' has been observed by property portals, with households planning to move in the new year starting their online searches right after Christmas Day.

Boxing Day 2023 saw a record number of new sellers launching to the market for that time of year, while buyer demand jumped by 273% between the Christmas Day lull and Boxing Day.

Despite the usual pre-Christmas slowdown, activity levels are robust compared to last year, setting the stage for a potentially busy Boxing Day surge.

The usual surge in website traffic to portals and agents' websites during the holiday period offers an excellent opportunity for sellers to maximise visibility on their listing. Source: Dataloft by PriceHubble, Rightmove
