After a subdued end to 2025, the first quarter of 2026 has quietly rebuilt confidence in the housing market. March may be the strategic launch point sellers have been waiting for.

If you are thinking about moving in the next 6 to 12 months, a market appraisal is often the best first step. It gives you a clearer view of value, timing and buyer demand, helping you plan with more confidence in a competitive 2026 market.

A chance to acquire a plot of just under two-thirds of an acre with demolition of the existing uninhabitable cottage and planning permission for two detached, two-storey dwellings with single garages. Alternatively a renovation of the existing dwelling. This is offered for sale through the Modern Method of Auction which is operated by Iamsold Ltd.

With mortgage rates steadier and spring listings emerging, March 2026 offers buyers a balanced window before peak competition intensifies.
