As we settle into 2026, many homeowners are wondering about the best time to sell. The good news is, all signs point to a market that's not just stable, but actively gaining momentum, making it an excellent period for vendors to list their property.

Understanding the Current Market Landscape

The property market, much like the British weather, can be unpredictable. However, current indicators suggest a robust environment. We're seeing a healthy demand from buyers, particularly for family homes in areas like Gravesend, Kent, and its charming surrounding villages. This sustained interest, coupled with a balanced supply of properties, creates a favourable climate for sellers.

At Town and City Homes, we've observed a renewed confidence among buyers. This isn't just a fleeting trend; it's a reflection of broader economic stability and a desire for people to find their forever homes. For those looking to upsize from their first property, perhaps into a three or four-bedroom house, the conditions are ripe for a successful sale.
