Stamp Duty Holiday Deadline

Stamp Duty Holiday Deadline

How many Weeks Left To List Your Property To Market?

  • With just under 26 weeks of the stamp duty holiday left, even with homes selling 31% faster than before lockdown, sellers only have 10 weeks to list their properties if they want to complete in time.
  • According to The Advisory, the average time to sell a property, from first day of marketing to completion, is on average 18 weeks and in a hot market, like today, it can take on average 16 weeks.
  • Buyer demand in August was 39% above the same time last year and mortgage approvals saw a 29% annual increase, indicating that there are plenty of buyers out there.
  • Here at Millbanks we have said the window to list is between September 26th and October 14th
  • Although 31st March 2021 seems a long way away, vendors need to consider the time scales of selling homes and act now. Source: Dataloft, The Advisory.

The property market remains active, but more homes for sale means buyers have greater choice and higher expectations. For Attleborough homeowners, a successful sale now depends less on simply listing a property and more on getting the pricing strategy right from day one.

Scrolling property portals is useful, but registering with an estate agency can give buyers a more personal, proactive search experience, especially when the right home is about to come to market.
