The different ways to sell my flat quickly?

The most general way owners have sold their flat has been through an estate agent. However, this isn’t the only method.

There are different routes you can take, so we’ve broken down the options:

How to sell a flat quickly in the UK?

If you are looking at trying to get a fast flat sale, then we’ve put together some useful tips that may help you achieve your goal.

Naturally, as you live in the property there is general wear and tear, so just making some minor improvements may be the difference between getting that coveted sale.

Modernise where you can

• It’s all about your budget, but you should try and carry out improvements where you can. A new kitchen or bathroom can massively help the appeal of your house. They are also two of the most expensive things to replace. Updating things such as doors, windows, fixtures and fittings would add a lot of value to your property and sell flat quickly.

Choose neutral colours

• Are you thinking, I want to sell my flat quickly, it's got some great vibrant colours, why isn't it selling? Well you need to consider that not everyone may like your taste in colours. Go for light and neutral colours that are safe, as this will provide an appealing blank canvas, fresh look and even make your property feel spacious.

But don't go too neutral!

• It’s all about striking the right balance, you want your flat to appear lived in and homely, so you need to leave in a few personalised touches or effects. Neutralising everything could make the flat appear like it hasn’t been lived in.

Make the property presentable

• Now this seems like an obvious one, but before every viewing you should always clean and tidy your house to make it as presentable as possible. Get rid of any of the clutter, mould or dust and maximise the space in your flat.

Repair any damage to the walls

• Polyfilla is amazing. Re-plastering is a very expensive thing to do, especially if you’re going to do the entire flat. A more affordable option may be to fix some of the issues yourself. Using Polyfilla, you will be able to fill in any small holes or cracks across the home to make it look more appealing.

Get rid of any smells or odours

• Do you smoke or own pets? Then you’re going to need to try and remove any odours before showing potential buyers around your home. Having a strong odour can immediately put people off a property, but it’s an easy fix. Buy some air fresheners, put some shake and vac down, hoover the carpets and sofas, and air the property out by opening windows.

Advice for selling a flat with a short lease

If you're looking for a quick solution we can offer that, and we typically quote that we can buy your flat in 7 days. The truth is that we can buy it as quickly as you want as we have in the past bought within a 24-hour timeframe, but we can often operate a bit too quick and our average turn around time is 2 weeks.

So the answer to the question is we can buy your flat in a timeframe that best suits your requirements.
