Five affordable homes up for grabs in Greater Manchester for less than £100,000
Whether you are a first-time buyer looking to get a foot on the property ladder, or a homeowner who is looking for your next doer-upper project, there are some great bargains on the market for those with a tight budget.
The average house price in Greater Manchester over the last 12 months was £247,300, according to Zoopla, with terraced homes costing £181,926. However, despite the regional average there are certain areas where homes are priced much cheaper.
Here we have picked out five affordable homes that are currently up for grabs for less than £100,000 in Oldham, Bolton and Wigan. As expected, these properties will need a bit of renovation work doing to them, which is why their prices are considerably lower.
Some of these properties are set to go to auction later this month, whereas others are being sold on the traditional market.
£78,000
This two-bed terrace house is one of the cheapest homes you can buy in the region at the moment. Found in Royton, a popular town in Oldham which was named as one of the UK's top 10 sales hotspots in 2024 by Rightmove, it is on the market for £78,000.
The house has great potential for first-time buyers or investors, says estate agents Hunters, however its interior is in need of an update. Inside it has an entrance hall, lounge and kitchen, with two bedrooms and a shower room upstairs. Outside it has an enclosed garden to the rear and on street parking to the front.
The property is being sold with the benefit of no chain. It is set to go up for sale at an auction with bidding closing on July 18 at 3pm. You can view more of the property here.
