March Property Update: Download the Latest Residential Property Review

The UK housing market continues to shift, with affordability pressures, regional differences, and tax changes shaping buyer behaviour. Our April 2025 Residential Property Review gives you a clear and concise look at what’s happening – and what might be ahead.

In this edition we cover:

  • Prime London market cools – Buyer demand for high-end homes has dropped, particularly in areas like Clapham and Wimbledon.
  • Homeowners undervalue their properties – New Zoopla data shows 64% of owners underestimate their home’s worth, sometimes by £100k or more.
  • Moving house costs more – With Stamp Duty relief ending, the average moving bill is now over £51,000 – up nearly 11% in a year.
  • Mortgage borrowing slows – Despite falling rates and inflation, approvals dipped again in February, pointing to ongoing affordability challenges.
