With plans announced to raise the council tax surcharge on higher-value homes, this snapshot looks at how many £2m-plus properties have actually sold across the UK this year. The data shows a highly concentrated market, dominated by London, and reveals just how small this sector is nationally despite the noise around a “mansion tax.”

The Autumn Budget brought predictable housing and tax shifts, headlined by a 2028 levy on £2m+ homes that affects under 1% of properties but will shape behaviour for years. Landlords face tighter margins as taxes rise, while Attleborough’s market absorbs uncertainty. The measures add clarity rather than comfort as pressures build.

Some homes sell swiftly while others linger, quietly slipping from view. The gap isn’t chance, it’s sellability. Price, presentation, and guidance decide who wins attention early and who stalls. Understanding what makes a home irresistible can turn uncertainty into momentum.

As the year closes and the market slows for the festive holidays, this article steps back to examine the total value of every home in Attleborough and how it has changed since 2010. Despite economic swings and uncertainty, the message is clear: Attleborough’s housing wealth has grown strongly, reshaping fortunes for homeowners and homebuyers alike.
