Property Market 2026
With the new year in full swing the market has started to stir again. Valuations are up, and with them, agreed sales. The Merseyside property market continues to show resilience, with steady demand across areas such as Maghull, Crosby, Formby and Aintree. While national headlines often focus on uncertainty, local trends tell a more balanced story.
For sellers, well-priced homes in desirable locations are still attracting strong interest, particularly family homes close to schools and transport links. Properties that are prepared properly for the market, with realistic pricing and professional marketing, are achieving quicker sales.
Buyers, meanwhile, are expected to benefit from slightly increased choice compared to previous years. This allows more room for negotiation, especially on homes that require modernisation. However, popular areas remain competitive, so being financially prepared is key.
Mortgage rates and affordability continue to influence decision-making, but Merseyside remains attractive due to its relative value compared to other parts of the UK.
