Guildford, Haslemere & Liphook Market Update (March 2026)
Much of the national conversation at present is centred around geopolitical tensions and their economic impact. The situation involving Iran has created volatility in financial markets, with implications for inflation and interest rate expectations.
Naturally, this has filtered through to the UK housing market, but the picture locally across Guildford, Haslemere and Liphook remains reassuringly resilient.
Market Conditions – Measured and Stable
This month’s ‘House Price Index’ from Rightmove confirms that the number of homes for sale at this time of year remains at its highest level for 11 years. This is consistent with our experience across our local offices in Guildford, Haslemere and Liphook.
The high volumes of stock make it important for sellers to price their properties carefully to compete with other homes on the market, which in turn ensures a more stable market for buyers.
ONS data continues to show broadly stable pricing across the South East, with modest growth rather than sharp fluctuations.
In our local markets:
- Demand remains consistent for well-presented homes
- Stock levels have improved, offering greater choice
- Transactions are continuing at a steady pace
Buyer Behaviour in 2026
What we are seeing from our locations in Surrey and Hampshire is a more considered buyer:
- Decisions are thought through rather than rushed
- Financial planning is more detailed
- Buyers are realistic about pricing and affordability
This is a sign of a maturing, stable market rather than a weakening one.
Mortgage Market – Adjusting to Global Events
The Iran conflict has influenced expectations around interest rates, with some lenders increasing pricing and withdrawing some of the higher-risk (high loan-to-value) products.
However:
- Lending remains widely available
- Competitive products still exist
- Buyers are continuing to proceed with purchases
Local Market Drivers Remain Strong
The enduring appeal of our area continues to underpin demand:
- Excellent schooling
- Strong commuter links
- Attractive countryside and lifestyle
These factors are far more influential on long-term demand than short-term global volatility.
Professional View
Whilst global uncertainty may influence headlines, the reality across Guildford, Haslemere and Liphook is that the property market remains active and stable.
For committed buyers and sellers, 2026 continues to offer opportunity, particularly in a market that is now more balanced and predictable.
