🏡 The property market slowed the week before last...
But that's exactly what happens every Bank Holiday.
Around 22,100 homes sold subject to contract across the UK in Week 21, down from the previous week, but there's no surprise there. Late May Bank Holidays almost always create a temporary dip in activity.
The bigger story remains the same.
Buyers are still buying.
But they have more choice than they've had for years.
With stock levels remaining high, buyers are comparing more properties, negotiating harder and taking their time before making decisions.
The homes that are priced correctly and marketed well are still attracting strong interest.
The homes chasing ambitious prices?
Many are simply being overlooked.
This isn't a bad market.
It's a competitive market.
And in a competitive market, strategy matters.
