In the last month, 29 properties have become available for sale in Haydock. Out of those, only four have been sold, which is around 14% of the total. It seems that higher mortgage rates are playing a role in slowing down the buying process. Mortgage rates have increased by about 2% compared to last year, making it harder for buyers to afford a home. As a result, some sellers have reduced their prices in response to the market conditions. Overall, house prices have decreased by around 2.5%.

Despite these challenges, it's not all bad news. Homeowners can still achieve great results by using effective marketing strategies and working with proactive estate agents. For example, there was a property on Nathan Drive that was initially listed with another agent at a lower price. However, when a different agent took over, they implemented a proactive marketing approach. Within just two weeks, the property was sold for £10,000 more than its original price. This shows that with the right approach, homeowners can still succeed in the market.

The Haydock property market is experiencing changes, and it's important to adapt and find opportunities within these shifts. Higher mortgage rates have slowed down the buying process, leading to some price reductions and a slight decline in house prices. However, homeowners can still achieve good results by using effective marketing strategies and working with proactive estate agents. By embracing change and staying resilient, homeowners in Haydock can navigate the market and achieve their property goals.
