This month’s numbers show important shifts in supply, demand, and pricing that could shape your property decisions in the months ahead.

NE9 Property Market – May 2025

NE9, which includes areas such as Wrekenton, Springwell, and Beacon Lough, experienced notable growth in new listings, but a slight cooling in buyer activity.

Headline Figures:

• Properties for Sale: 229
  ⬆️ Up 10.63% compared to May 2024
• New Listings: 71
  ⬆️ A significant 61.36% year-on-year increase
• Sales Agreed: 57
  ⬇️ Down 9.52% compared to May last year

These figures reflect a more active seller landscape with increased choice for buyers, but also heightened competition among listings.

Asking Price Data:

The fall in per-square-foot sale prices suggests some sellers are accepting lower offers to secure deals, even as average sale asking prices tick upward.

Market Conditions:

A sharp rise in fall-throughs points to increased uncertainty or tighter buyer criteria, while fewer withdrawals may signal improved seller commitment.

NE8, NE10 & NE11 Market – May 2025

These postcodes cover popular areas such as Felling, Pelaw, Heworth, and Low Fell—key growth areas for both first-time buyers and investors.

Market Supply & Demand:

• Properties for Sale: 553
  ⬆️ Up 7.38% year-on-year
• New Listings: 136
  ⬇️ Down 5.56% from May 2024
• Sales Agreed: 120
  ➡️ Unchanged from last year

A modest rise in listings paired with stable buyer activity shows this market segment is more balanced, avoiding the surge seen in NE9.

Price Breakdown:

Unlike NE9, these areas have seen healthy growth in sale values per square foot—showing that buyer willingness to pay has increased, especially for competitively priced homes.

Additional Market Activity:

Lower withdrawal and fall-through rates suggest a stronger deal pipeline in NE8/10/11 and fewer last-minute surprises during the sales process.

At-a-Glance: Key Comparisons

• NE9 leads in price per sq ft for listings, but NE8–NE11 outperforms on actual sales completion and buyer demand stability.
• Sellers in NE9 may need to price more strategically as buyer caution increases.

Why This Matters

Whether you’re an investor comparing yield potential or a homeowner weighing up your next move, these May 2025 property statistics offer vital clarity. Gateshead continues to be a resilient and in-demand area, but the data clearly shows that pricing, timing, and presentation are more important than ever.
