The property market is sending mixed signals right now.

Headline house prices are still rising modestly… but underneath the surface, buyer confidence and transaction activity are softening in many areas.

What this really means is:
- Pricing strategy matters more
- Presentation matters more
- Local market knowledge matters more

At Open House Estate Agents, we believe national headlines only tell part of the story.

Every street, postcode and property type behaves differently, and understanding real-time local demand is key to achieving the best result.

Is the housing market softer than the headlines suggest?

While national house price figures are still showing modest growth, many property experts are warning that the real market picture underneath may be more cautious.

Recent reports highlight:
• Slower transaction levels
• More buyer negotiation
• Reduced confidence due to mortgage costs
• Sellers needing stronger pricing strategies

At Open House Estate Agents, we’re seeing first-hand that local market conditions matter far more than national averages.

Some homes are still achieving strong results. Others need sharper positioning, realistic pricing and better marketing to generate movement.

If you’re thinking about selling in 2026, honest local advice has never been more important.
