2013 Sees Increase in Market Activity, According to
Relocation Agent Network
The UK
property market appears to have had a good start to the year, with nearly three
quarters of estate agents from Relocation Agent Network reporting an improvement
in market activity compared to the same time in 2012.
A recent survey conducted by estate agency
organisation, Relocation Agent Network has found that 72% of its members, who
responded to the survey, have seen an increase in buyer enquiries and sales
agreed in January 2013, when compared to the same time last year. Almost two
thirds of respondents reported up to a 15% annual increase, with an additional
quarter of agents seeing up to a 30% increase in market activity.
When asked why they thought there had been an
improvement in January 2013, compared to 2012, the majority of respondents
(68%) indicated that people had more confidence in the market. A ‘more
accessible mortgage market’ was the second highest reason (25%) attributed to
the improvement in market conditions.
Michael Griffiths from Coast
& Country Estate Agency states, “The reported improvement in the number of
buyer enquiries and sales agreed is fantastic news for those thinking of
entering the market this year. As we approach the spring months – traditionally
a popular time to move home – we anticipate that more people will begin to
enter the market.
