How comfortable are vendors with physical viewings in their own homes?

We look some recent research into how sellers felt about physical viewings in their homes

  • The recent Dataloft Homemover survey has bolstered reports of growing momentum in the housing market. The vast majority of vendors who were considering selling their homes before lockdown, still plan to do so.
  • So long as social distancing measures are enforced, 83% of vendors who are looking to sell their homes as soon as possible, say that they are either very or fairly comfortable with physical viewings taking place.
  • This renewed confidence in the market led to an 111% increase in sales viewings booked last week (Property Market Insights Report, Coadjute).
  • It is no surprise that those who are looking to delay their sale until next year were the most concerned with 8% insisting on digital viewings only. Source: Dataloft Homemover survey and Coadjute

The data is clear. Nearly 42% of UK homes find a buyer within the first four weeks of hitting the market, proving those early days matter most. Serious buyers act fast, and pricing correctly from Day One creates momentum. Testing the market can work, but only briefly. Stay overpriced too long, and buyers move on.
