January 2026 showed a market regaining momentum. Across much of the UK, sales agreed are running ahead of two years ago, led by the Midlands and East. Scotland and Wales are also strengthening.

Some regions dominate, others quietly punch above their weight. It’s a powerful reminder that the UK property market isn’t one story, but many regional economies moving at different speeds.
