Agents put 11,613 new listings live on Zoopla during Boxing Day, the portal has revealed.
That is a 42% increase compared with the same day in 2021 and almost five times the average number of new listings across other bank holidays of 2022.
The regions with the largest Boxing Day bounce were in the South East of England, East of England, London, South West and the East Midlands, Zoopla said.
It was unable to provide a regional breakdown.
It comes as Estate Agent Today searched for listings 40 miles from London on Rightmove that were added in the seven days between 26 December and 2 January and the website returned 2,799 properties for sale.
Many of these were price reductions though and in the past two weeks, there have been 14,554 listings added, suggesting there wasn’t a massive influx within this search radius at least since Boxing Day.
Similarly, Zoopla had 2,000 new results in the seven days between 26 December to 2 January, but 9,220 when you go back by two weeks.
