Rightmove

Rightmove reports average newly listed asking prices in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea fell from £1,648,148 to £1,552,970 in one month, a drop of roughly £95,000. Nationally, newly listed asking prices fell 2% in August, with London down 4.4% as supply rises to a 16-year high and sellers compete for affordability-stretched buyers. Hamptons data shows investor (landlord) buyers are increasingly using lowball offers—paying on average 88.7% of asking price in July—with a rising share of such offers being accepted, especially for leasehold flats. » Más en theguardian.com

Rightmove has announced a share buyback programme of up to £350 million, due to begin on 3 August 2026. The programme is intended to return surplus capital to shareholders and reduce issued share capital; all repurchased ordinary shares will be cancelled. By 31 July 2027, Rightmove expects total payouts to shareholders of more than £400 million, of which around £330 million will be through buybacks. The buybacks are based on the shareholder authority granted in 2026 and are subject to price and volume limits as well as regulatory requirements, and Peel Hunt and UBS have been appointed to execute the programme. » Más en de.investing.com
