Around the Market
The past 18 months have been exceptionally busy in the
housing market, with record numbers in property sales
and rental growth. Manchester has seen some of the
strongest growth in the country, solidifying itself as an
investment hotspot.
National house price growth was up 6.9% in October 2021,
almost double the rate recorded in October 2020, with
Manchester’s growth even greater at 8.7%. Rental growth
in the UK has also hit a 13-year high, with demand for
rental properties in major cities doubling last year.
Rents continue to rise
With more people returning to cities after having worked
remotely during the pandemic, urban areas also saw
strong rental growth in 2021. The private rented sector is
Woodfield Road, £215,000 expected to see similar growth this year, by 4.5%.
Approx £950pcm, 5.3% rental yield Manchester has developed into an investor’s dream, with
with demand for rental homes doubling in Q3 in 2021, compared with the earlier part of the year. The North West was
also rated as the best place for buy-to-let investments in the country.
Strong buyer demand remains
Seven out of ten properties on Rightmove were marked at sold in December 2021, with the site seeing the highest
number of completed home sales since 2007. The company’s Director of Property Data, Tim Bannister, says: “The net
result as we approach the start of the 2022 market is the lowest ever available stock of property for sale per estate
agency branch, yet with ongoing high buyer demand.”
As a result, ‘buyer power’ remains strong, and ‘power buyers’ (who have sold STC or be able to buy without selling) will
continue to get priority.

Why Sell Now?
A recent Rightmove article referenced;
'While the start of a new year can spark life changes for many of us, we tend to spend the winter months
staying cosy indoors.'
So it’s no surprise that latest research shows that March is the month home-movers spring into action,
and best time of the year to put your property on the market.
April is the next strongest month to sell, based on competition between buyers for each available
property, followed by May.
Why? Well, for starters, lots of buyers and sellers are motivated to get into a new home for the summer
months, with many home-movers putting gardens and outdoor space at the top of their wish-lists.
Also, for the past five years (excluding 2020), March is when we have seen the most buyers enquiring
about properties for sale. This in turn creates competition between buyers, giving sellers the best chance
of sealing the deal.
The number of new listings coming to market is also typically highest in March, but because buyer
demand is usually so high, it’s still the strongest month to sell.
How to be in the best position to buy when you find ‘the one’
The spring is already shaping up to be a busy one. We’re continuing to see an increase in already high
levels of buyer demand, as well as the number of new sales listings coming to market. Meanwhile, the
number of requests to estate agents from future sellers to value their homes is up 27% since the start of
the year, compared with last January.
If you’re thinking of selling, you’re probably looking to buy a new property, too. Due to the speed and
competitiveness of the market, it continues to be of high importance to become a ‘power-buyer’. This
means making sure you have your current property on the market, or preferably sold subject to contract,
to give yourself the best chance of securing your dream home.
