Staycations are on the rise

In this short article we look at the number of people contemplating the purchase of holiday homes in the UK

Currently only 31% of Britons' second homes are purchased in the UK. With staycations on the rise, accelerated by Covid-19, could we see an increase in holiday homes purchased in the UK?
Pre Covid-19, the number of people holidaying abroad was slowing. In 2019 there was the slowest growth in UK residents holidaying overseas since 2012 and in January 2020, there was the lowest monthly increase in global airline passengers since the Icelandic volcanic ash cloud in 2010.
Heatwaves, Brexit, value of the pound and climate change are all reasons for the increase in staycations, and now Covid-19.
In 2019 UK residents spent £43.4 billion on overseas holidays, perhaps some of this money will now be spent on staycations, allowed from 4th July. Source: Dataloft, Savills, ONS, IATA

Are there more homes for sale across the UK?

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.
