Spring property market ‘off to a subdued start’ as buyers hesitate

There was an average of 252 would-be buyers registered per estate agency branch in February, according to the NAEA. That's 18% fewer than a year ago, and 46% fewer than in 2016.

Asking prices, new listings and website traffic are all up, says Rightmove - but the traditional January asking price bump is still well below the ten-year average

Rightmove points to some big potential changes in the post-pandemic property market, as many people "re-appraise their housing needs".
