New property listings in Great Britain rose by 2.6% to 209,941 in July 2026, according to Sprift's latest Sales Market Intelligence Report. In the same period, sales agreed increased by 1.1%.

This difference resulted in the national conversion rate dropping by 0.8 percentage points to 54.6%. The report highlights a trend where listings are outpacing sales, which may be relevant for letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring market activity.
