No More Stamp Duty Savings… So, What’s Next for the Market?
The end of March marks a key date for buyers hoping to benefit from stamp duty savings.
So… is that it?
Is the market about to stall?
That’s the worry on many people’s minds.
But behind the headlines, the reality looks very different.
In moments like this, the difference lies in how you move—not how quickly.
For buyers, it’s about being strategic.
You're already behind if you’re only looking at what’s online. With just 2% of homes ever making it to the open market, a smart search strategy is essential. That’s why many are now using our Search & Secure Service to access off-market opportunities and get ahead of the crowd.

For sellers, this moment still holds weight.
The stamp duty deadline may be out of reach for most buyers—but the urgency it created hasn’t disappeared.
Serious buyers are still actively searching and keen to move, and many are frustrated by the lack of good homes available.
When demand outweighs supply, the right property—presented well—stands out.
And that’s where we’re seeing results.
With the right strategy, sellers are achieving stronger offers than expected.

So, while the headlines might create anxiety, the reality is this:
If you’ve been thinking about moving, now is a very good time to act—with the right guidance.
And if you’re not ready just yet, that’s okay too.
Start gathering information, explore your options, and take control of the process on your own terms.
Because property decisions shouldn’t be rushed—they should be informed.
