Strong demand for homes continues

Strong demand for homes continues

We examine the current strong demand across the sales and rental markets

  • A net balance in demand of +64% was reported by survey participants for renter demand. This is the strongest result since 1999.
  • In the sales market, participants recorded a net balance of +16% for new buyer enquiries, up from +9% in December. This is the strongest figure since May 2021.
  • Conversely, supply of properties (new instructions) remains constrained in both the lettings and sales markets and will continue to put pressure on prices.
  • Source: Dataloft, RICS (net balance of survey participants).
  • The RICS net balance score is calculated by the proportion of survey respondents reporting a rise minus those reporting a fall in the given indicator.

Set in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Attleborough, this stylish four-bedroom detached home offers spacious, light-filled living with high ceilings throughout. Highlights include a generous 19ft entrance hall, dual-aspect lounge, 19ft kitchen/diner, and an enclosed garden with a 'secret garden', a good size driveway leading to double garage.

Thinking of selling your Attleborough home? It’s tempting to set a high asking price—after all, it’s your biggest tax-free asset. But overpricing often backfires. Since 2020, more than 1,400 Attleborough homes were withdrawn unsold—many simply priced too high from the start.

Buying your first home is an exciting milestone, but it can also feel overwhelming. With so much to consider—budgets, mortgages, legal paperwork, and finding the right property—it’s easy to feel lost in the process. This guide outlines the key things every first-time buyer should know before taking that first step onto the property ladder.

The Bank of England’s latest rate cut to 4%—its lowest in two years—offers a boost to buyer confidence and affordability. With UK home sales up 7.5% year-on-year, the move is expected to support stability in Attleborough’s housing market, though the pace of mortgage rate changes may remain gradual.
