Market still frenetic but early signs of slowing due to record prices and lack of choice

  • Price of property coming to market rises by a relatively modest 0.8% (+£2,509) this month, though still the largest rise at this time of year since 2015, and prices are now at a record in all countries and regions of Britain
  • High prices combined with an all-time low in the number of available properties on agents’ books are starting to slow the market’s frenetic pace, with sales agreed in May 17% ahead of same period in 2019, slackening from April’s +45%
Top-of-the-ladder buyers are more insulated from mass-market’s increasingly stretched affordability:
  • Average prices up by £67,394 since March 2020 for properties in this sector (+12.3% compared to +7.5% for all properties)
  • The number of sales agreed on properties over £500,000 in May was 49% above the same period in 2019, despite buyers knowing they will miss the maximum stamp duty saving that comes to an end in June
Cash-rich relocators from more expensive areas also fuelling prices in fastest-growing regions:
  • Welsh prices up by 14.6% since March 2020, and also the highest jump in buyer demand, up by 44%
South West prices up by 11.4% with properties selling more quickly than ever recorded, resulting in fewest properties available for sale per estate agent of any region in England – just ten per agent branch

An impressive individual 4-bedroom detached family home, situated in a non estate position on a plot of approx. a quarter of an acre plot and ideal for the centre of town, with a super south-facing rear garden, generous parking, a double garage and great potential to create the home of your dreams.

This map highlights the average size of homes sold across the UK since 2020, measured in square feet from completed sales. What stands out is how little the averages vary between regions, despite very different housing types. Northern Ireland is the clear exception, with noticeably larger homes on average.

Following on from the Chancellor’s Autumn Budget, this article breaks down what the new tax measures really mean for Attleborough. With the feared £500,000 property tax dropped and a targeted Mansion Tax on £2m-plus properties introduced, I explore the likely impact on local homeowners, landlords, and tenants, separating headlines from reality.

This map reveals how homes in Attleborough are owned, from mortgage-free households to rented areas. These patterns matter because ownership shapes how and why people move, whether driven by lifestyle choices, long-term roots, or changing life stages, offering valuable insight into the local property landscape.
