Guildford, Haslemere & Liphook Market Update – (April 2026)
April’s latest figures from Rightmove show a market that continues to move forward despite a more challenging mortgage backdrop.
Average asking prices nationally have risen by 0.8% this month, though below the seasonal norm, while the number of homes available for sale remains at an eleven-year high for the time of year.
That balance between supply and demand is very much visible across Guildford, Haslemere and Liphook.
Guildford: Choice Returning to the Market
Across Merrow, Burpham, Onslow Village and central Guildford, we are seeing healthy stock levels and steady interest in quality homes.
Buyers remain particularly focused on:
- Homes near strong schools
- Properties within easy reach of the station
- Houses with flexible working space
Well-priced homes continue to attract serious attention.
Haslemere & Liphook: Lifestyle Markets Holding Firm
The appeal of Haslemere High Street, Grayswood, Shottermill, Liphook village and nearby country lanes remains strong.
These markets are often driven less by short-term headlines and more by long-term lifestyle decisions:
- Access to countryside
- Commuter links
- Family environment
- Space and quality of life
That demand continues.
What April’s Numbers Tell Us
Rightmove reports sales agreed running 3% behind last year, with buyer demand 7% lower.
That sounds cautious, but context matters.
There are also significantly more homes available, meaning buyers have more choice and can make measured decisions. This creates a more sustainable market than the rapid conditions seen in previous years.
Mortgage Rates & Borrowing Power
Higher mortgage rates are clearly a factor, but buyers are still being helped by:
- Wage growth outpacing asking price changes
- Greater borrowing flexibility introduced last year
- More realistic seller expectations
In practical terms, many buyers are still able to proceed confidently.
