UK Property Market Sees Positive Growth in 2024

UK Property Market Sees Positive Growth in 2024 – But Challenges Remain!

The UK property market has shown promising signs of recovery and growth in 2024, buoyed by increased buyer activity and a rebound in key areas of the housing sector. However, the market is not without its hurdles, as affordability concerns, the potential risk of rising interest rates, and regional disparities continue to pose challenges.

The UK property market is showing signs of strength, with a remarkable increase in homes marked as ‘sold subject to contract’ (SSTC) between January and November 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

This upward trend in every region across the country, reflects renewed confidence among buyers and sellers.

Here’s the regional breakdown of growth:

• East Anglia: Up 22.2% (highest growth in the UK)

• East Midlands: Up 21.5%

• South East: Up 19.6%

• North West: Up 18.5%

• London: Up 18.3%

• West Midlands: Up 18.2%

• Yorkshire & Humber: Up 17.6%

• North East: Up 15.7%

• South West: Up 15.6%

• Wales: Up 14.6%

• Scotland: Up 12.9%

• Northern Ireland: Up 12%

This growth is an encouraging sign, particularly after the challenges of the past few years. However, while more homes are being marked as sold, yet it’s crucial to remember that only 53% of properties listed on the market in last 18 months has ultimately resulted in a successful sale and move.

Who will be affected by the Rachel Reeves £2m mansion tax?

A new £2m-plus home surcharge is billed as progressive, but its impact falls mainly on London and the South East, where many owners now face an annual bill from 2028. Critics warn it punishes long-term residents, cools the prime market and deepens regional divides, even as households weigh downsizing. Many fear a new cliff edge at £2m too.
