SEPTEMBER’S HARVEST BROUGHT us to Thanksgiving and London’s year-over-year price increase stands at 30 per cent. The average price of a home has doubled in five years.
Even with prices at record highs, volume also peaked, with more transactions in September than in recorded history. At this peak of price and volume, let us take a breath and imagine what comes next.
“The market is not expected to cool in the near future, but the value increases seem to have slowed in the last two weeks”
This ascent cannot continue unabated. At the A Team, we are already seeing signs that we are approaching a peak. The market is not expected to cool in the near future, but the value increases seem to have slowed in the last two weeks.
No one can predict the future, but the present is a tremendous selling opportunity. A calmer market will mean more buying opportunities in the future ― this is inevitable, but timing is everything.
That being said, we’re talking about your home and not just an investment. Downsize, upsize, right size, but be sure to talk to someone who can guide you through that change for the market we’re in.
