REDDITCH is one of the areas in the country where homes sell the quickest once put up for sale.
According to the latest survey from property website Zoopla, homes in affordable regions such as the North West and North East, are selling the fastest, with Redditch, Manchester, Carlisle, Stockport, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Halton in the top ten fastest moving markets
Homes in England and Wales spend an average of 36 days on the market before a sale is agreed, however, in Redditch, homes spend an average of 22 days on the market.
Richard Donnell, Zoopla’s executive director, said: “It currently takes just over a month to agree a home sale across England and Wales but this varies widely across the country and by property type with smaller family homes the fastest selling.
“Metrics like time to sell and average sale price are crucial in helping would-be sellers understand the value of their home and the asking price they could secure in 2025.
“Buyers have a lot more choice of homes for sale than a year ago. Aiming too high on the asking price is likely to impact saleability and how long you may have to wait to agree a sale.”
