    10 reasons to buy in 2025

    10 reasons to buy in 2025

    The UK property market has a lot going for it thanks to a year in which mortgage rates finally dropped and confidence replaced uncertainty. This encouraged buyer demand, and the number of sales agreed increased by 25% on the previous year.If you're considering relocating in 2025, there are numerous compelling reasons to get started.

    Here are 10 reasons to buy in 2025:

    1. Fair pricing

    House prices did not skyrocket in 2024, rising by an average of 1% compared with 2023. This means you will not pay through the nose and get the house you want at a fair price, and the earlier you start, the better.

    2. Achieve a good selling price

    You will also get a good price for your current home, which will have likely enjoyed excellent increases in value over the years. Strong levels of demand mean you will not be left waiting around for a buyer.

    3. Good mortgage deals

    Mortgage rates improved during 2024, and the good news is this is set to continue in 2025. Now that we are getting closer to a settling point and have not fallen to the previous unsustainably low levels, the market sentiment is one of ‘move now’.


    4. Move up

    If you are moving up or selling up, buying is always worth considering when the market is on the up. The conditions for moving up the ladder are ideal, creating a real window of opportunity in 2025.

    5. Fabulous choice

    Fabulous properties are appearing in every county and almost on every street, increasing your chances of finding what you want. This is boosted further with some second homeowners and landlords selling up.

    6. No elections

    Unless something rather unpredictable occurs, 2025 does not have to contend with the uncertainty that a general election can bring. This means you can focus on any tax or buying advantages the government offers.

    7. Good timing Making an early start has numerous benefits. Many sellers are already placing their homes on the market in December in anticipation of the Boxing Day Boom and the January rush, not forgetting the early build up to the spring market.

    8. Start your future

    With future growth levels appearing to be favourable, investing in your future now could be a good move. Investing in property can help secure your future while providing the perfect setting to enjoy so many magical moments.

    9. Less stress more certainty

    More certainty means less stress. Moving home is a big decision, but the right guidance prevents niggling worries from becoming big concerns. You will have many questions, and the answer to all of them is to use good property professionals.

    10. It’s easier

    Evolving technology that connects you to the right homes that allows virtual viewings to virtually all you will ever need during your move, makes the buying process easier. Agents in 2025 will combine tech with local expertise to give you better service.
