There is significant buyer demand in the UK housing market right now

Of late, the time it takes to sell a home in the United Kingdom has reduced by more than a quarter. When you consider the level of buyer demand in the current market, this shouldn’t be a surprise. The level of buyer demand right now is 34% higher than the same period in 2019.

There has been a reduction in the number of days spanning marketing the property to receiving an offer. On average, since lockdown was lifted, this takes 27 days. This is 31% lower than the same period in 2019.

Of all the property types on sale in the UK right now, it looks as though three-bedroom homes are in great demand. On average, this style of home sells in 24 days while one-bedroom flats sell in 34 days. This is the longest time to sell a property in the UK right now.

One of the key reasons why the time it takes to sell property has decreased is down to the shortage of homes in the market. While many homeowners are looking to sell their current home and move on, the demand is far outstripping the supply of homes.

This can be seen with four and five-bedroom properties selling 16 days faster, which is the largest decrease seen.
