Liverpool homes are some of the most discounted on the property market, research has suggested.

Homes for sale in Liverpool are reduced, on average nearly £13,000, which equals 7.5%.

The research, taken out by property website Zoopla, also revealed that discount levels on houses are at their lowest since 2010.

Signalling bad news for buyers looking to negotiate a better deal, the study has shown that nationwide houses are reduced by just 6.05% on average.

The north has the highest level of discounts with Liverpool sitting at number six, below Coventry, Blackburn, Bradford, Manchester and Blackpool.

Around 35% of Liverpool’s homes are discounted, versus 37.8% on the Wirral.

Lawrence Hall, of Zoopla, said: “Buyers may be disheartened by the decrease in the typical discounts on offer, but can take cheer from the fact that almost a third of houses are listed today below their original asking price.”
