Rightmove trading update reported 6 November 2026: 2026 revenue growth guidance trimmed to 6-7% (from 6-8%) and top-end ARPA growth guidance cut from £120 to £110, attributed entirely to housebuilders spending less. Reported buyer demand for resale properties down 10%, agreed sales 9% lower in four months to end-October, new home developments down 6% vs end-2025, average five-year fixed mortgage rate 5.5% at end-October. Noted Government First Homes scheme (autumn Budget) lifted housebuilder optimism with volume boost likely later in 2027. Comment from CEO Johan Svanstrom and AJ Bell's Dan Coatsworth.
