What are the fees when considering a quick house sale?
There are no fees. The Cash Property Buyer’s service is free. We pay for all costs, so you don’t have to. Our service is professional, free and fast. All valuations, conveyancing, EPCs etc don’t cost you anything.
Do you buy any type of property?
The Cash Property Buyer will consider any type of property in any condition. Residential, commercial, house, flat, bungalow. Short leases, structural issues and Japanese Knotweed aren't an issue either. We will give you a fair and reasonable cash offer, whatever type of property you're looking to sell.
How long does it take?
The Cash Property Buyer can usually make a desktop offer within 24 hours of contact. If accepted the sale process usually takes from 7 to 14 days from there or we will work to your timescale requirements.
Will you reduce your offer before exchange?
No. This is an unethical practice carried out by some buyers. They will make an attractive offer but then significantly reduce it, even on the day of exchange. Whist not illegal this is highly unethical and places enormous strain on sellers who are often in an already vulnerable position. We will never do this, our offer will be fair and we won’t change it.
Will I be selling directly to you?
Yes, we will buy your property directly. Unlike some other companies we do not act as middle man or agent and connect you to an investor buyer. We buy the property in cash, simple as that.
Do sales fall through?
We do not change our minds on any purchase once we have made a formal offer. Speed and certainty of sale are the big advantages of selling to us. 44% of sales through traditional agents fall through within 4 weeks.
Will I be under any legal commitment?
There's no obligation whatsoever to go ahead and you can change your mind at any point in the process prior to exchanging contracts.
What do you do with the property?
Clearly we are a business and need to make a profit, that’s no secret. Once we’ve bought your property we will usually sell it on the open market, often following improvements, or keep it and rent it to tenants.
Do you come out to see our property before making an offer?
The majority of our competitors do not send anyone to view the property they agree to buy over the phone. We believe that meeting us in person allows you to better understand the high level of service we provide you with. The Cash Property Buyer visit every property we offer on. We also organise for independent surveyors to survey the property prior to exchange of contracts.
Why don't you charge any fees?
We buy your property and cover all the costs. When the sale has completed, you have your money and have moved on.
Do you pay the full market value?
We need to make a profit so will buy at a discount to the market value. To our clients the speed and certainty of sale are a higher priority than achieving the full market price. Be very cautious of other companies that claim to offer full or 90%+ of market value. They could not make a profit at those prices so are likely to ‘chip’ the offer at the last minute.
What’s the catch?
There’s no catch. We pay cash and will buy you property in 7 days or a timescale to suit you.
