While some properties get snapped up within hours of hitting the market, others can take a little longer to become someone’s new home.

Properties which have been waiting for a buyer for some time could mean you are in a better position to haggle the price down, so there’s a chance you could grab a bargain.

And that's no different for York, seeing one property on Zoopla first listed in August 2020 and has yet to find the right buyer.

Of course, sometimes the reason a property might not be selling is because the vendor is asking too high a price and is unwilling to come down on it.

However, that isn't the case for this £650,000 four-bed townhouse for sale in York that when first listed over two years ago was up for £750,000, seeing a reduction of £100,000.

But if you were on the hunt for a new family home, then look no further as this property on Zoopla might just be for you.
