Thinking of selling your home? Here’s a quick look at how the market is moving. In April, the average time it took to sell a home in the UK was 36 days — a slight improvement from the 38-day average seen during the first quarter of the year. This uptick in pace follows typical seasonal patterns, as spring usually brings more buyers into the market. On average, homes sell around five days faster in the second quarter compared to Q1, and about ten days quicker than in the final quarter of the year.
There were some notable regional shifts too. The North East saw the fastest sales, with homes selling 12 days quicker than the national average. The West Midlands also outperformed, with homes going under offer four days faster than average. At the other end of the scale, London continued to see the slowest sales, with homes taking 41 days on average to sell — though that’s still a three-day improvement on the previous quarter.
