Homes for sale in Durham
Durham's cathedral and castle look down over the River Wear, and the streets around them, from the viaduct to Gilesgate and Neville's Cross, mix period terraces with family homes and new developments on the edges.
If you own one of them, SwapAnyHome lets you sell or swap directly. Buyers contact you, you decide who views, and no agent takes a percentage at completion.

Selling or swapping in Durham, without an agent
The university, the hospital and the East Coast Main Line bring a steady flow of people to Durham, and many local owners are thinking about Newcastle, the coast or a village in the county. Add where you'd like to be, and swap matching finds owners whose homes and plans fit with yours.
- Step 1
List your home
Add photos, the details buyers ask about and your asking price. A moderator checks every listing before it goes live.
- Step 2
Say where you'd move
Add the towns, budget and home you're after. We match you with owners who want each other's homes.
- Step 3
Talk to buyers directly
Answer questions, agree verified viewings and negotiate offers yourself — no agent in the middle.
- Step 4

Durham questions, answered
- Does it cost anything to list a home in Durham?
- During our launch beta, listing is free for our first 1,000 founding members, with no card and no billing. When the beta ends, listings go back to £10 a month, and founding members keep 50% off for life. There's never a commission or a completion fee.
- Can I list a home I'm selling after renting it to students in Durham?
- Yes, as long as you own it and are selling it. You can't advertise it for rent on SwapAnyHome, though — the site is for sales and permanent swaps only.
- Can I sell my Durham home without an agent?
- Yes. SwapAnyHome replaces the marketing side of an agent: your listing, buyer messages, offers and viewing requests. For the legal side you'll need a conveyancing solicitor for the legal work.
- Is my personal information kept private?
- Yes. Listings show the area, not your exact address, and your name is only shared once you agree a viewing. Messages stay inside SwapAnyHome.
