Rightmove records busiest ever Boxing Day as home hunters prepare for 2026
-
Rightmove recorded its busiest ever Boxing Day for website visits in December 2025, in signs of a bigger-than-usual housing market bounce.
Visits to Rightmove nearly doubled (a 93% increase) between the quietest day of the year - Christmas Day and Boxing Day, as house hunters swapped board games and Christmas treats for property searches.
New buyer and seller activity on Boxing Day in 2025 was busiest in the South East, East of England and London, according to the website.
It did not disclose the number of website visits for commercial reasons.
The most popular type of homes to be listed for sale on Boxing Day were smaller properties with two bedrooms or fewer, which are often targeted by first time buyers.
In December, the Bank of England base rate was cut from 4% to 3.75%, in a boost to some mortgage holders. Many lenders have recently been reducing their mortgage rates.
