  • The Dataloft Demand Index shows a +14% increase in housing market demand since the start of Lockdown 2. More time at home means more time spent browsing properties.
  • Demand dropped from 5th October, reflecting uncertainty in the new Tier system and the looming Lockdown 2 announcement.
  • Buyers jumped back into action following the start of Lockdown 2, and demand is now only -10% below the peak seen the week commencing 17th August.
  • With just over 4 months of the stamp duty holiday left, buyers should act now if they want to take advantage of stamp duty savings of up to £15,000. Source: Dataloft Demand Index, based on visits to agents’ sites displaying the Dataloft Inform widget each week.
