Roaming around online looking at properties for sale, even if you're not actively looking for a new home, has always been a popular past time, but with the Covid-19 pandemic making more people re-evaluate where and how they live and maybe deciding now is the time for a change, the online property portals have never been so busy.
The market may be slowing somewhat in the past few months according to some analysts due to the rise in the cost of living, but the shortage of housing stock has countered this to a large degree - at the moment at least. Find out more about that here.
Daniel Copley, consumer spokesperson at property portal Zoopla says: "Whilst recent research from Zoopla shows a slowdown in property price growth for the third consecutive month, the market remains extremely busy throughout the UK and in particular, Wales and the West Country. Here the property market remains buoyant with properties to suit all budgets coming to market."
