The latest Rightmove House Price Index shows prices are now 0.5% higher than this time last year, marking a clear shift from the seasonal pause of December to a more confident start to 2026.

List now, not in the spring rush. When the market floods with new listings, buyers have too many choices and get fatigue. A valuation today puts you ahead of the crowd, attracts motivated buyers, and helps you secure the best possible price.

From pricing strategy to presentation and timing, selling well is rarely rushed. Early preparation gives you more control, stronger interest, and often a better final price.

The latest Rightmove House Price Index shows the national average asking price at £368,019, effectively unchanged month-on-month (0.0%). Following the strongest start to a year for prices since 2020, February’s pause suggests the market is consolidating rather than accelerating.
