The Wimbledon tennis tournament may just be starting but the property market is already taking off.
Analysis by sales progression platform TwentyEA, shows that while average property prices in Wimbledon have eased by 2% year on year, the local market remains active.
More transactions have successfully progressed from instruction through to completion, according to the research.
Comparing the period June 2025 to May 2026 with the previous 12 months, the number of properties reaching completion increased from 187 to 196 transactions.

However, the proportion of properties reaching exchange fell from 46.5% to 38.1%, while seller withdrawals increased from 53.5% to 61.9%. At the same time, the proportion of properties requiring a price reduction rose slightly from 43.4% to 44.7%.
Encouragingly, fall-through rates remained stable at around 24%, TwentyEA said, showing that transaction risk has not increased despite ongoing market adjustments.
Katy Billany, sales director of Complete ASAP, says: “A 2% adjustment in average property values is relatively modest given the wider economic backdrop, and this is likely to have helped keep the market moving.
“The increase in completed transactions year-on-year demonstrates that there is still healthy demand in the Wimbledon market and that buyers remain willing to proceed when properties are realistically priced.
“The rise in completions demonstrates that with the right advice, realistic expectations and proactive support throughout the transaction, successful sales are still being achieved at a consistent rate.”
