This week we have been reporting on many property stories and one of them was the Glasgow flats that have been on the market the longest.
Flats in Glasgow seem to either sell really fast or take longer than anyone would want - and by this we mean years.
Because of the market's unpredictability, this means that when you see the property you love, you may want to put an offer in quick before someone else outbids you to take away that dream home.
So rather than looking at new properties or ones that have just been added, it may be worth having a looking at what's been available for a wee while.
Ranging between £230,000 to almost £850,000, these three properties have sat on the market the longest, according to property website Rightmove.
Here are the top three Glasgow houses that have been on the market the longest...
20 Craigpark Terrace, , Dennistoun, G31 2LZ
Added: 13/03/2020
Price: Offers Over £460,000
This property is built over three floors and is said to have a whopping 11 bedrooms - yes ELEVEN.
The lovely home features three bathrooms and approximately 4,352 square feet of accommodation space which dates back to an era when properties were built to a standard and exacting quality that is "seldom seen today", says Rightmove.
According to the description, "The property is set in a great location that never ceases to improve in popularity and it's sure to be a popular listing with those who seek a truly unique opportunity.
"The property reflects all the grandeur of the Victorian age and retains some truly impressive Victorian features, such as the epic grand pillars and exquisite plaster-work. With just a little adjustment, the entrance hallway would not look out of place in a BBC period drama from the turn of the century Glasgow.
"The surrounding grounds are in keeping with the property and parking is on-street. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing. Some properties seem to tick all the boxes in terms of investment-grade, return on investment and future capital growth prospects, and we believe this is certainly one of them.
"Given the substantial accommodation with this beautiful period building, the close to the city-centre location, the spacious and flexible accommodation on offer, and the guaranteed £25k sitting tenant HMO income, this is a rare and unique opportunity not to be missed."
