Boxing Day Brings Buyers - Be Ready

At Andrew Craig Estate Agents, we know the North East property market inside out - and there’s one day of the year that consistently surprises people with just how powerful it is for sellers: Boxing Day.

While most of us are relaxing with family, finishing leftovers, or dipping into the sales, thousands of potential buyers jump straight onto property portals, ready to browse, plan and start their move for the year ahead.

It’s called the Boxing Day Boom, and if you’re thinking about selling in 2026, it’s an opportunity that you don’t want to miss.

What is the Boxing Day Boom?

Every Boxing Day, the property market experiences a huge surge in interest.  People finally have time to sit down, scroll, chat about their plans, and dream about their next home - which sends online property searches through the roof.

For homeowners, that surge means one thing: Your property will be seen by more motivated buyers than almost any other day of the year.

Why List on Boxing Day? The Andrew Craig Advantage

1. Your Home Launches When Buyer Activity Peaks

Buyer attention is at an all-time high, and those browsing on Boxing Day tend to be serious about moving.

By going live at the right moment, your home gets instant visibility.

2. You Beat the January Rush

Many sellers wait until after the New Year to list their property.  By launching with Andrew Craig on Boxing Day, you’re ahead of the competition before they’ve even booked their valuation.

3. Better Exposure Brings Better Offers

More eyes on your listing means more enquiries, more viewings - and ultimately, stronger offers.
