Colby Short, founder and CEO of GetAgent.co.uk, said: “It’s been a pretty turbulent time for buyers and sellers across the property market over the last year, in particular.
"For those home sellers that did brave it and decided to sell, the vast majority have managed to secure a very good percentage of asking price.
"Even in the worst-performing areas, 92% is no kick in the teeth and demonstrates that even in much tougher periods property is still a very stable investment.
"Of course, the reality of this reduction is very different across the likes of Gwynedd and Westminster when you consider the actual monetary reduction.
"Those in the more expensive pockets of the market will have seen a far greater sum wiped from their asking price for even the more marginal percentage reduction.
"However, the flip side is that they are selling for hundreds of thousands of pounds more and so they’ve still managed to do alright.
"With buyer demand now flooding the market, the pendulum should shift back towards the seller and we should see the asking price achieved breach the 100% mark in a number of areas once again.”
