Figures researched by Property Solvers, a professional house-buying firm, have shown it takes on average 18 weeks and three days to sell a property across Oldham. The Oldham Times attempted to contact the three Conservative councillors but they did not wish to comment directly. Meanwhile, the area with the largest turnover, or possibly most sought-after, is the OL2 postcode – which Royton, Shaw and Heyside all fall under. Both postal zones took an average of 18 weeks and two days to sell. The OL3 postcode, which the majority of Saddleworth falls under, saw 23 properties sold for an average of 18 weeks.
