Outlook for Sales & Rentals

Outlook for Sales & Rentals

Sentiment for pricing over the next three months is positive:

  • House prices and rental values are expected to rise across most of the UK over the next three months, based on the latest RICS sentiment survey.

  • All surveyors in the North and West Midlands thought rents would rise over the next 3 months. Confidence for house price growth highest in Yorkshire & The Humber, North West and London.

  • Expectations of house price growth have risen despite the interest rate rise in December, as stock levels remain close to historic lows.

  • The continued imbalance in supply and demand is also the driving force behind rental growth. National 12 month rental growth projections now stand at 4.5%.

If you are thinking about moving in the next 6 to 12 months, a market appraisal is often the best first step. It gives you a clearer view of value, timing and buyer demand, helping you plan with more confidence in a competitive 2026 market.

It’s one of the most common questions we’re hearing right now — “Should I sell now, or wait?” With more homes coming to market this spring than we’ve seen in years, it’s understandable to pause and consider your timing. But the reality is, waiting doesn’t always mean a better result. In fact, for many sellers, acting now could be the smarter move.

The decision to move home is never a small one. It often comes with a mix of excitement and uncertainty weighing up what you have, what you want, and what comes next. But at its heart, moving is about more than property. It’s about creating the space for new moments to unfold.
