If you want to move in 2026, positioning yourself as a serious buyer is essential. Here’s how to put yourself ahead of the competition and be taken seriously by sellers.

There are 243 homes across the UK named “Christmas Cottage”, each adding a festive note to the property map. From a £1.37m sale in Buckinghamshire to values sitting above the national average, these homes show that even a name can carry a seasonal premium and a story of its own.

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.
