How hard is it to sell a property in Leeds?

Selling your house in Leeds can be challenging, depending on the time of year you do so, and the attractiveness of your property. Online statistics demonstrate that the time it takes to offload your property is also heavily impacted by the type of house it is.

In 2023 and 2024, high inflation and rising interest rates means that upsizing is not possible for most people. This means that selling a house in the higher price bracket for Leeds (over £350,000) is going to be slightly more challenging.

If you want to sell your house quickly in Leeds, without any stress or hassle, then contact Sold.co.uk today.

How long does it take to sell property in Leeds?

Over the past year, the average time to sell a house in Leeds is 136 days.

For detached properties, the mean time has been 132 days, while semi-detached houses in the city have sold in an average of 99 days.

Terraced properties in Leeds take approximately 114 days to sell, while flats are on the market for around 190 days before finding a suitable buyer.

The time it takes to sell your house in Leeds can also vary depending on where you are in the city, or whether you live in one of the nearby commuter towns. For example, the average house in Bradford takes 141 days to sell, while in Huddersfield, it is 98 days.

How quickly can Sold.co.uk sell my Leeds property?

You can sell your house in Leeds directly to Sold.co.uk within 7 days. This is a faster option than any other route, including auction houses and/or traditional high street agencies.

You can also arrange for the sale to be completed on a specific date if that is more convenient.

Selling your property quickly can be ideal for Leeds homeowners in a variety of situations. Firstly, if you are in financial difficulties and need a large influx of cash quickly, then Sold.co.uk can make this happen.

If you and your ex-partner are going through a divorce, and want to ‘cut ties’ as soon as possible, then our cash buying option can be useful for you, too.

When you inherit a probate property in Leeds, you can also avoid the stress of fixing it up, renting it out or maintaining it while it’s empty by selling it to Sold.co.uk.

Tenanted houses are notoriously difficult to sell on the open market. Sold.co.uk purchases Leeds properties in any condition – regardless of how difficult your renters are, how long the tenancy contract is for, or how much damage has been done to the house.

Preventing a chain from breaking down, or simply preferring the convenience of a quick sale without costs, means that dozens of Leeds homeowners have already sold their house to us.

What can I do if I’m struggling to sell my Leeds home?

When you are struggling to sell your Leeds property, using a cash house buyer is by far the best option. This route gives you far more control over the selling process, compared to alternative options like an auction house.

For example, with Sold.co.uk, you do not have to accept our valuation if you don’t want to – whereas with an auction house, you have no control over what the final selling price is.

Sold.co.uk buys properties in Leeds in any condition, regardless of where they are in the city.
