Rightmove states that buying conditions favourable in strong start to year

The number of newly listed properties for sale is 1% lower than this time last year, but 11% higher than two years ago. Similarly, the number of sales agreed is 5% below this time in 2025 but is 9% higher than at this time in 2024.

Although market activity is difficult to compare with this time last year due to the looming stamp duty deadline, Rightmove says current trends look stronger when compared with 2024.
