Not a good figure when I compare it with the same year-to-date sale agreed figures from the last couple of years.
2022 – 173,607 properties sold stc
2021 – 193,607 properties sold stc
But the last couple of years have been extraordinary for the UK property market and should be taken with a pinch of salt in some respect. We must compare 2023 with more normal years, like 2017/18/19/20. This tells a different story.
2020 – 151,694 properties sold stc
2019 – 143,504 properties sold stc
2018 – 138,665 properties sold stc
2017 – 134,503 properties sold stc
