Property market strong at xmas time
22 December 2009 |
| |
| The Christmas period is often considered to be one of the slowest times of the year for property sales, however a week by week analysis shows the weeks leading up to Christmas can be some of the busiest of the year. Most people would expect that over the festive season we would begin to see property sales slowdown. However, this is not the case according to rpdata.com national research director Tim Lawless.Mr Lawless said “In some cases the lead up to Christmas can actually be one of the busiest times of year. The trend of sales volumes over the coming Christmas period will be interesting to watch. Traditionally many buyers remain active during the last weeks of December. The second last week of the year (week 51) typically sees a jump in the number of properties sold as buyers look to finalize contracts prior to Christmas leave. Incidentally, this same trend is evident in the weeks leading up to the end of the financial year,” Mr Lawless said. |
