Yopa’s First-Time Buyer Stock Research
Monday 28th September, 2026
Yopa analysed property listings and sales to show that homes it classifies as suitable for first-time buyers make up just 1.8% of listed properties, while demand softened slightly in the third quarter. The headline statistic gave the agency a timely hook to comment on the government’s proposed buyer-support scheme and the shortage of suitable homes.
Why it worked: It paired a stark scarcity stat (only 1.8% suitable stock) with imminent policy news, flipping the scheme’s demand narrative into a supply-gap warning.
The lesson: Consider mining public listings to quantify a surprising market bottleneck, then time the release to undercut a fresh policy or trend narrative.
