UK Regional House Sales Continue to Climb in 2025

There’s strong momentum in the UK housing market, with the number of homes going under offer (sale agreed) from January to April 2025 up across most regions compared to the same period last year. This points to rising buyer confidence and a market that continues to move, making it of particular interest to anyone in and around Bolton considering a move this year.

Here’s how each region has performed in terms of year-on-year percentage growth in homes sold subject to contract:

• North West: Up 11.3%

• East Midlands: Up 11.2%

• Wales: Up 11.2%

• East Anglia: Up 10.8%

• North East: Up 9.8%

• West Midlands: Up 9.0%

• South East: Up 7.6%

• South West: Up 6.5%

• Yorkshire & Humber: Up 6.5%

• Scotland: Up 5.6%

• London: Up 4.3%

• Northern Ireland: Up 0.9%

With more sales being agreed and activity on the rise, many homeowners are feeling more optimistic about making a move. But it’s worth remembering this key fact: only 54% of homes that come to market actually end up completing. That’s why pricing your property realistically from the outset is still the most powerful tool you have.

If you're based in Bolton and the surrounding areas and you thinking about selling in 2025, now could be a great time to have a chat.
