The multi-million pound Greater Manchester mansions that are plummeting in price

Over the last year, house prices have been consistently increasing across Greater Manchester, with properties coming onto the market at considerably high prices due to an ongoing imbalance of supply and demand.

Despite the lower and mid ends of the property market continuing to remain busy, it appears that on the higher end of the market, property prices are taking a tumble.

In some of the region's most expensive areas, those multi-million pound mansions that we all love looking inside on Rightmove and Zoopla appear to be struggling to sell. And as a result of this, in order to attract a wider range of buyers, their prices are being slashed.
