In recent years, a 'Boxing Day bounce' has been reported by property portals, as households wishing to move in the new year go online to start their search after Christmas Day.
In 2021, Rightmove recorded its busiest ever Boxing Day for visits to their website and app, up by 21% on the previous year. Over the whole festive period demand was up by 23%.
The typical jump in the level of website traffic to portals and agents' websites over the holiday period means that it presents an excellent opportunity for sellers to maximise who sees their listing.
Getting your property listed online also helps reach a larger audience than is available locally. The 2022 Property Academy Survey found that a quarter of buyers were looking to buy over 26 miles from where they currently live.
