Flintshire Property Market Update – October 2025 📊🏡
As we move into the final months of the year, we at Keystone have taken a deep dive into the latest figures for the Flintshire market — and our valuer duo, Ben and Sammie, have been busy analysing what’s happening with instructions, viewings and sales for October. Here’s what they found — and what it means for you.
New Instructions - Sellers Are Still Coming to the Market 🏠✍️
October saw a very encouraging level of new listings across Flintshire. Motivated sellers continue to recognise that now can be a smart time to act - before the market gets too congested or the year-end rush begins.
Highlights:
We saw a solid flow of homes being instructed with us - showing that confidence remains in the region.
Sellers who are getting ahead of the curve (thinking ahead to early 2026) are gaining a strategic advantage.
Importantly, these weren’t just any listings - many were homes that had been thoughtfully prepared and priced from day one.
As Ben points out, “Having new stock is great - especially desirable stock. It keeps the market dynamic and means buyers have options.”
Viewings – Genuine Buyers Having a Look 👀🔍
The viewing numbers in October tell a story of serious engagement — not just window-shopping.
What we saw:
Viewings remained busy, especially for well-presented homes.
Many people coming to view were already financially ready (mortgage in principle done, clear about what they’re looking for).
Crucially, the quality of the viewers is up - meaning fewer stale viewings, more genuine interest.
Sammie confirms: “It’s no longer about just seeing what’s out there. Buyers are going in with purpose - they know what they want, they’ve done their homework, and they’re ready to act.”
That’s good news for sellers - because when you attract the right viewers, the path to an offer and completion becomes much smoother.
Sales Agreed – Strong Results Despite Balanced Conditions 💼✅
Despite talk of a “cooling market,” our figures at Keystone show that sales are still being agreed at a strong pace — especially for homes which tick the right boxes.
Key trends:
Our average time from instruction to “Sold Subject to Contract” remains substantially better than many in the area.
Homes priced right, marketed beautifully and aligned with demand are the ones performing best.
The balanced nature of the market means strategy is everything: there’s less of a frenzy than in boom times, but equally less risk of a glut that puts sellers at disadvantage.
Ben puts it well: “The market isn’t swinging wildly either way. But for sellers who are ready and well-prepared, it’s absolutely still working for them.”
What’s Happening Heading Into Winter? ❄️🔮
As we approach winter, our lens is trained on a few important developments:
Entry-level homes (first-time buyers) continue to move quickly - strong demand here remains a consistent driver.
Family homes that are well presented remain in demand - especially those that are “ready to move in” and don’t need major work.
Buyers are getting more selective. They’re viewing fewer homes, but making decisions faster when they find “the one”.
Lifestyle-led moves (downsizing, relocating for balance) are becoming more prominent - people re-thinking what they want from a home.
This isn’t a rapid, overheated market - but it is active, strategic and still rich with opportunity.
