As summer 2025 settles in, Attleborough’s property market offers little comfort to first-time buyers. With deposits averaging £61,000 and costs rising faster than wages, homeownership feels increasingly out of reach. For many, the dream of buying a home is slipping into fantasy.

The property market is stirring again. In June 2025, 115,709 UK homes were marked as sold STC—up 8.7% from last year. But growth isn’t uniform—some areas are thriving, others slower.

If you're an Attleborough homeowner or landlord thinking of selling, you’ve likely wondered how long it might take to find a buyer. Sale times vary by location, property type, and price. I’ve analysed the latest data from 82 local sales agreed during March, April and May of this year to give you a clear breakdown by type and number of bedrooms.
