Is the UK property market slowing, or just getting back to normal?

In the week ending Sunday 20 September (week 37), the UK recorded 17.1k net home sales. That is the number of sales agreed after fall-throughs are deducted, which makes it a useful measure of how much business is actually moving forward.

It is slightly below the ten-year Week 37 average of 19.1k, although that average includes the unusually busy years around the pandemic, so it needs a little context.

So far in 2026, net sales YTD are below 2025, almost level with 2024, and ahead of both 2023 and the average for the years before Covid. Buyers are buying. Sellers are selling. Locally, as elsewhere, there is a market to work with.

The harder question is whether an individual home is positioned to succeed in it. Of the homes that left estate agents’ books in August, 11 in 20 exchanged and completed (ie the homeowner moved). The remaining 9 out 20 were withdrawn unsold. That is why the asking price, presentation and response to buyer feedback matter so much.

If you are thinking of moving, or your home is already on the market, give us a call. We can talk through what buyers are doing in your area and where your property fits.

Why Property Investors Need More Than One Exit

Never buy a property where everything depends on Plan A working perfectly.

Before buying, ask what you would do if your original strategy changed. Could you rent the property long term? sell it? refinance it? change the refurbishment? or hold it for longer?

Having multiple exit options gives an investor flexibility when markets change, finance changes or personal circumstances change.

A property with several possible outcomes can be much easier to adapt than one where only a single strategy works.

How many exit strategies do you consider before buying?

SCOTLAND: Week 37 Property Market Update

Here is the Week 37 property market round-up for Scotland, giving a regional snapshot of how our region is performed last week. The stats cover the number of homes finding buyers, new properties coming onto the market, average asking and agreed prices, the likelihood of a home selling, and how long it is currently taking to secure a buyer.

That comparison matters because the property market is never one single national or regional market. Conditions can vary considerably from one region to another, one town/city to another and even one part of the that town or city to another part of it. This is particularly relevant when it comes to buyer demand, pricing and the speed at which correctly marketed homes are selling.

For Scottish homeowners considering moving home, these weekly figures and their trend are going to provide useful regional context to our local area. However, averages only tell part of the story. The likely outcome for your individual home will still depend on its actual location, orientation, condition, competition and, most importantly, the pricing & marketing strategy used from day one. For more specific commentary on your area, follow our weekly blog posts on social media

YOUR HOME FEELS DIFFERENT IN AUTUMN

Have you noticed how your home feels different when Autumn arrives?

During summer, life spills outside.

Gardens, parks, beaches, barbecues and long evenings.

Then suddenly we're back indoors.

And that's when the things we've been ignoring become obvious.

Maybe your living room suddenly feels cramped.

Maybe working from home is becoming difficult.

Perhaps the children need more space.

Or maybe you're looking around a large family home thinking:

"Do I really need all this anymore?"

Autumn has a funny way of making us reassess where we live.

And your potential buyers are doing exactly the same thing.

Some of them won't even know they're serious buyers yet.

But they're beginning to think.

Beginning to browse.

Beginning to imagine something different.

That's why Autumn can create an opportunity for sellers who are ready when those buyers appear.
