Motivated seller deals — listings gone stale
Properties on the market 90+ days. The seller is tired, the agent is tired, the price is tired. Perfect conditions for a cheeky offer that sticks.
Why time on market is the best signal
In a normal UK market, a well-priced property sells in 4-8 weeks. When a listing has been up for 90+ days with no price cut, the seller has already proven they will not walk away. They just have not accepted yet that the market said no. That is the exact moment a below-asking offer lands. We track every listing\'s days-on-market and surface the ones where the seller has blinked, even if they have not cut the price.
Days on market, tracked
We track every listing from first listed date. See exact age, not the agent's "new" refresh.
Stale + no price cut
These sellers are in denial about the market. A cheeky offer at 85% is often accepted.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know a seller is motivated?
Time on market is the strongest signal. 90+ days without a price cut means the agent has tried and the market has rejected the price. A second signal: the seller has already bought elsewhere or is downsizing. We surface listings where the mandate for a quick sale is implicit.
How low can I offer on a stale listing?
A 10% below asking offer is a reasonable opener on a 90-day listing. 15-20% below on a 180-day listing is not insulting, it is market reality. Back your offer with comparable sales data (we include this on every property) so the agent can defend it to the seller.
Why track days on market instead of price drops?
Not every motivated seller cuts the price. Some would rather wait for a low offer than publicly reduce. Stale listings with the original asking price often present the best negotiation dynamic, because the seller has not yet admitted defeat.
Can I filter by exact days on market?
Yes. Set the minimum days on market filter (90, 120, 180+) and combine it with your usual criteria (area, price, bedrooms). We show the exact first-listed date on every property so you can sanity check.
