Sellers flooding back to the housing market

The number of houses for sale has reached its highest level in 27 months, new figures show.

Many put their moving plans on hold after mortgage rates spiked to 14-year highs and house prices started to fall at the end of last year.

Estate agents typically reported having 35 homes for sale per branch in March. This was the highest number of homes for sale per branch since January 2021.
