Introduction
If you’re thinking about selling, you’re probably asking one question:
“Is now actually a good time — or should I wait?”
The truth is, the property market in London isn’t simple right now — but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad time to sell.
The Market Has Shifted — Not Stopped
We’re no longer in the “everything sells instantly” market.
Now:
- Buyers are more price-sensitive
- Mortgage rates have changed affordability
- Properties need to be positioned correctly
But demand hasn’t disappeared — it’s become more selective.
Serious Buyers Are Still Active
The key difference:
- Fewer “casual browsers”
- More motivated, proceedable buyers
That means:
If your property is priced and presented correctly, it will sell.
Pricing Strategy Matters More Than Ever
Overpricing is the biggest mistake right now.
What happens if you get it wrong:
- Property sits on the market
- Interest drops quickly
- You end up reducing anyway
The first 2–3 weeks are critical.
Presentation Is No Longer Optional
In a competitive market:
- Poor photos = no viewings
- Cluttered properties = low offers
- Weak marketing = wasted opportunity
You don’t get a second chance at first exposure.
What Should Sellers Do Now?

- Get an accurate, evidence-based valuation

⚠️ Reality Check
If your plan is:
- “Let’s test a high price and see what happens”
You’ll lose momentum — and money.
