22% of estate agents state the majority of homes are selling in less than a week. Zoopla is reporting the number of homes selling within the first week of marketing is currently at its highest ever level. The average time taken to sell a property across the UK in April 2021 was a record low of 45 days on Rightmove. This is 16 days quicker than the April average of 62 days recorded from 2015–2019.

Properties are currently selling quickest across Yorkshire and the Humber and North West, areas where property price growth is currently exceeding the national average. Homes in London are taking the longest, an average of 57 days. However, this is still below the average for the same time of year between 2015 and 2019.
