Mannleys Market Update
What’s Happening in the Property Market?
Property Market Slows… But Mannleys Is Thriving!
The property market is holding steady amid uncertainty, with buyers and sellers pausing ahead of the upcoming Autumn Budget. Landmark Information Group reports Q3 2025 listing volumes down 1% and sales under offer down 6% compared with last year, while Rightmove shows average new seller asking prices up just 0.3% in October—well below the ten-year October average of 1.1%.
High property availability and Budget speculation have cooled the usual Autumn bounce, meaning some sellers are adjusting prices and some buyers are holding back.
But it’s not all slow news. Year-to-date, Rightmove shows new buyer demand up 2%, new sellers up 5%, and sales agreed up 5%. Landmark is also pushing faster, more certain transactions through its Project 28 Charter, aiming to cut completion times to just 28 days.
At Mannleys, we’re bucking the trend. Between September and October so far, we’ve agreed nearly 50 sales and added 59 new listings—with even more in the pipeline. Our team is helping buyers and sellers move with confidence, no matter what the wider market is doing.
Thinking of selling, buying, or letting? Now is the time to act, and Mannleys is ready to guide you every step of the way!
