Chief operating officer of GetAgent.co.uk, Mal McCallion commented: “Over the past couple of years, our nation’s brilliant estate agents have been working harder than ever under the weight of unprecedented homebuyer demand, triggered largely by the government’s stamp duty holiday introduced at the start of the pandemic.”
“Today, the peak of this demand is well behind us but we’re still seeing a high level of market activity and the fact that agents are still managing to secure their clients such impressive sale prices is testament to their hard work and professional skills.”
“The coming months might bring a whole new challenge for estate agents as the cost of living crisis and uncertain economic outlook affect the buying appetite of the British public. But if their track record is anything to go by, the very best agents will still find a way to appeal to sellers and buyers alike, outperforming all expectations.”
