Percentage Of Chances of Selling

Percentage Of Chances of Selling

Thinking of selling your Attleborough home? You’re not alone—but not every property finds its buyer. In today’s changing market, success comes down to realistic pricing, good presentation, and the right marketing strategy to help your home stand out and move.

Will Your Attleborough Home Actually Sell?
When a home goes on the market, not every one of them sells and the homeowner moves home. In fact, since January 2025, of the 1,236,316 UK homes that have left estate agents’ books across the UK, only 680,896 (or 55.1%) have actually sold and homeowner moved (ie exchanged and completed), with the rest 555,420 (44.9%) withdrawn unsold.
This data shows how important realistic pricing and strong marketing are, especially the further South you go. The numbers below show the percentage chance that a home has sold and completed since the start of the year:
· Northern Ireland – 82.3%
· Scotland – 79.5%
· Yorkshire & The Humber – 61.7%
· North East – 61.1%
· North West – 59.7%
· West Midlands – 59.1%
· Wales – 58.1%
· East Midlands – 55.8%
· South West – 53.6%
· East Anglia – 50.9%
· South East – 50.1%
· London – 39.8%
Homes in the North are far more likely to reach exchange & completion than those in the South. Sellers who overprice are finding buyers reluctant to engage, while those who start with realistic expectations are the ones successfully moving.

Despite the headlines, first-time buyers in Attleborough are not locked out of homeownership. When you look beyond prices and focus on monthly mortgage costs, affordability today is far better than many realise. The data challenges the doom narrative and shows that, while deposits are tough, buying a first home is still possible.

This data shows a clear north–south split in UK housing supply. Homes for sale are rising across London and the South, while much of the North is seeing stock fall. The contrast raises questions about affordability, confidence, and whether higher supply in the South could limit house price growth into 2026.

As 2025 draws to a close, this report examines how the UK and Attleborough property markets have performed and what may lie ahead in 2026. By comparing listings, sales, and prices with previous years, it reveals a market driven more by activity and confidence than by rising house prices.

The semi-detached home remains Britain’s most loved housing type, shaping family life for generations. This article explores how the value of semis varies widely across the UK, from London’s seven-figure prices to far more attainable regions, and why their emotional pull remains as strong as ever.
