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.

With mortgage rates steadier and spring listings emerging, March 2026 offers buyers a balanced window before peak competition intensifies.

If you are thinking about moving in the next 6 to 12 months, a market appraisal is often the best first step. It gives you a clearer view of value, timing and buyer demand, helping you plan with more confidence in a competitive 2026 market.

Rental demand remains resilient in early 2026, but growth has moderated. For landlords, spring is less about reacting and more about refining strategy.

Searching for the right home can be overwhelming. Use this practical checklist to stay organised, confident and ready to act when the right property appears.
