Bolton at Home properties now up for sale by auction

Bolton at Home currently have properties for sale in The Haulgh, Horwich, Great Lever, Kearsley, Westhoughton and Darwen.

Houses and buildings owned by the housing association tend to go on sale when they no longer "provide value for money" for tenants.

A spokesperson for Bolton at Home said: “We occasionally sell properties if they stop meeting our needs or no longer provide value for money for our tenants.

“Selling by auction is a way of ensuring we get a better sale price for the property. We use surveyors to help us come to a valuation for the reserve price, under which we will not sell.

“The proceeds of any sale are reinvested into our homes and services.”

Here is a list of the properties on sale by auction:
