The property market has kicked off 2025 with a surge in home sales across most UK regions. Comparing the number of homes sold subject to contract in the first eight weeks of 2025 with the same period in 2024, the data shows an impressive rise in buyer activity.

Leading the charge is the East Midlands, with a 24.5% increase in sales. Wales (20.7%) and East Anglia (20.4%) are also seeing remarkable growth, alongside the West Midlands (18.9%).

In the north, London is up 16.9%, while both Yorkshire & Humber and the North East have climbed 16.5%. Scotland follows closely with a 15.2% rise. Meanwhile, the South East (14.4%) and South West (13.1%) are experiencing solid, steady growth.

The North West has seen an 8.9% uplift, while Northern Ireland is the only region to register a slight decline, down 1.2%.

This surge suggests growing confidence in the market, with more buyers and sellers making their moves.
