Welcome to the 16th UK Property Market Stats Show of 2025, your go to weekly TV show on the UK Property Market on YouTube

This week, I’m joined by Bryan Mansell as we delve into the key property market headlines for 16th week of 2025 ending on the 20th April 2025.

It must be stressed that this was an Easter week, so many of the metrics are lower than normal (see the graphs to see this is a normal occurrence)
