With property portal Rightmove reporting more house sales across the country on one date in March than on any single day over the past ten years, Leamington estate agency ehB Residential says demand is outstripping supply in the town.

Interest in family homes with space for home working is accelerating, with the stamp duty holiday extension fuelling the desire to move to a new space.

Sales and prices have been on the rise for the past few months as the pandemic sees buyers re-evaluate their priorities.

The Rightmove statistic, that March 23 saw more sales UK wide than on any other single day in the past decade, comes as no surprise to ehB Residential office manager Clive Thompson.
