Residential Property Market News July 2025

Looking ahead, projections point to modest improvements. Savills has revised its 2025 price growth forecast down to 1 %, citing economic uncertainty and early-year softness, though it expects a stronger rebound of 24.5 % cumulatively from 2025–2029 as mortgage conditions ease further. RICS data shows buyer demand has returned to positive territory (+3 % net), but price pressures linger (net balance –7 %), suggesting a stabilizing but cautious market. The consensus is clear: affordability improvements and an uptick in transactions are on the horizon, but any economic or policy shocks could quickly undermine confidence.
