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

UK home sales agreed in 2025 tell a story of steady progress rather than drama. Many regions are seeing uplift thanks to realistic pricing and strong demand, while others are adjusting to affordability and expectations. The market is functioning, confident, and increasingly shaped by local conditions.

Some homes sell swiftly while others linger, quietly slipping from view. The gap isn’t chance, it’s sellability. Price, presentation, and guidance decide who wins attention early and who stalls. Understanding what makes a home irresistible can turn uncertainty into momentum.

A delightful two-bedroom home with an open front outlook over open greensward, lounge features a cosy open fireplace, a sleek kitchen/diner flowing into an outside garden room, modern bathroom, generous storage, low-maintenance garden and private parking. Warm, stylish and ready to enjoy.

This map highlights how uneven UK house price growth has been over the last decade. While some regions have surged ahead, others have seen far more modest gains. It’s a clear reminder that national averages hide wide regional differences, and that property performance is always shaped by local markets rather than headlines.
