Generally speaking, the housing market in the UK in 2025 has been mainly shaped by the stamp duty changes that came into effect in April. In many regions of the country, it led buyers to rush through their property purchases to avoid paying more tax after the deadline, which is why you’ll see a spike in activity in the first quarter of the year almost everywhere—explore Home.co.uk’s data to see buying and selling trends for any part of the UK here.

Birdseye view of Swansea

In Swansea, sales over the past year actually peaked in November 2024, with a slow downward trend toward the end of March. After that, sales of terraces in particular steadily increased month by month until July, with all house types on average spending 147 days on the market.

Property Consultant Manager at The Property Buying Company, Raphael Kaye, has seen trends change in Swansea in recent times:

Market insight – Swansea
“At the end of November 2024, most types of property spent around or under half a year on the market, but one-bedroomed flats in particular seem to have fallen out of favour with Swansea’s buyers. They’re now staying up for sale for an average of 329 days, which is frustrating news for sellers looking to upsize.”
Karl McArdle The Property Buying Company

Swansea’s housing market has undergone some interesting changes over the past 12 months—here’s what’s been affecting it in 2025: 

Asking prices are down, but sold prices are up over the year

Home.co.uk data tells us that the average asking price for all house types fell from £291,000 to under £288,000 in the year to November 2025, but Rightmove, which uses data from HM Land Registry, paints an interesting picture with that in mind. The average sold price in the city went up by 3% over the past year and 8% since 2022. 

The bad news: Sellers can be left unsure about how to pitch their property when they get conflicting advice from different sources, such as property portals and estate agents.

The good news: The Property Buying Company offers a cash price that’s fair and unbinding, with the added benefit of being able to buy within days.

Demand for rental properties pushing up rental yields

Swansea is apparently showing average returns of 5.27% on rental properties, according to TKR Management, so more and more investors will be getting attracted to the area. The city is increasingly student-heavy, so there’s always a need for rented accommodation for a good chunk of the year.

The bad news: Homeowners in Swansea might be getting increasingly hassled by investors looking to capitalise on the prospect of increasing rental yields. 

The good news: You can get an instant and free cash offer from The Property Buying Company to compare alongside any other offers you might receive.

How to sell your house quickly in Swansea

You can obviously choose to sell your house however you want, but you’ll want to compare your options if you are focused on a quick sale.

Using estate agents to sell on the open market is perhaps the route most people go for automatically, but it also has the potential to be the slowest; many people wait up to (or even over) a year to sell their home. You’ll also need to pay solicitors to process the sale.

Selling at a Swansea auction is a much quicker way to find a buyer, as you essentially get a room full of interested parties to bid on your house—they are there for that purpose. You will have fees to pay that way, too. 

Selling to a cash buyer is probably the fastest route to completion, with many sales wrapping up in only a couple of weeks. With companies like The Property Buying Company, you’ll get your legal fees covered, so what you’re offered is what you’ll get for your Swansea property.

Selling via estate agents£1k-5k16-52 weeks

House prices in Wales have slowly risen over the past year, which is more than can be said for a lot of other regions across the UK. The ONS reported that, as of September 2025, property prices had risen by 2.7%, with those in Swansea in particular rising by 3.6% to an average of £208,000. Rental rates in the city went up by 5.6%, too, with landlords now charging an average of £811 for private properties.

This means it’s a pretty good time to sell a Swansea home, as you could stand to get more for it than you would have this time last year. Investors will be looking for buy-to-let properties to start making money out of the increased interest in the area, but they will be as likely to negotiate as regular buyers on the open market will, so it’s important to do your research so you know what your property is worth and, more importantly, what you want to charge for it. 

Cash buying companies like us don’t need to enter into negotiations—what we offer is what you’ll get for your property and it’s really easy to get the process underway.
