Here are some different methods for a house sale.
Choose to sell your house using this route and you’ll most likely be going through an estate agent. The traditional estate agent will advertise your property and market it to their pool of potential buyers – the better connected your agent, the more likely you’ll sell your house.
Buyers then submit offers based on what they think it’s worth (typically less than your asking price). Once you accept an offer, a memorandum of sale is drawn up. From here both buyer and seller should instruct solicitors to ensure all the legal side of the sale is tied up correctly – this process can take time and if you're wanting to sell your property fast or get a guaranteed sale, this probably isn't the right option for you!
The sale will then go through. It’s at this time the estate agent fees will come in and they receive their commission – usually at least 1% of your sold price!
If you’re buying a new build property your developer may also give you the opportunity to sell your house fast through their part exchange scheme. Do so and they’ll value your property, taking into consideration any defects – their offer will usually come in at around 65-70% of the property market value. The price you pay for letting a developer take the hassle off your hands. Although if you choose this method you may be restricted to what type of property you can buy. Many choose this option of property sale because it's quick, but they tend to offer a lesser value than genuine cash home buyers like ourselves.
If you’re here to work out how to sell your house quickly, opting to use our quick house sale solution could be a good choice depending on your particular circumstances. Companies that buy property quickly typically give you a free cash offer, even though their offer will be below the market value. If you need to sell your property fast because of chain break, relationship breakdown or emigration, these companies tend to be your best bet, as the majority can complete a purchase in as little as seven days! So why not try genuine cash home buyers as an alternative to the traditional?
The fastest way to sell a house fast would be to sell through us, we can sell your house in as little as 7 days. We make the house selling process go as fast as possible while you still get a fair cash offer.

Now you might be thinking what is the value of my property to a company like us. If a Sell House Fast service sounds attractive, then here’s how to get started and with our easy to use enquiry form…
Disclaimer The price we quote you, is the price we pay.
Enter your postcode at the top of our “Get Your Offer” page.
We will pull the details up for your property, including type and size.
Enter your name, contact number and email. Our property consultants will contact you with a free cash offer.
Once you’ve agreed you’re happy with our initial valuation, we’ll then arrange for you to meet with one of our Acquisitions Managers. During the meeting, they’ll give your property the once over in person, flag up any issues and get to know more about you and your situation. It’s from their expertise that we’ll determine our final valuation which, if you accept, will lead to a RICS survey and valuation before completion. Proof you can sell the property in under 7 days!
As you can likely tell by now, we’re a fast house selling company. That doesn’t mean we’re biased though, a fast sale needs to work for all parties. Before using our service, you need to determine what’s more important to you, speed or money.
When you use a fast house sale company such as ourselves, in essence, you’re trading the time and hassle it would take to sell through an alternative method such as the open market for a below market value offer.
It’s a service that is typically only suitable for those who need or want to sell within a much quicker time frame, for whatever reason that may be.
Let's face it, we know this is the reason you're here, and we're as transparent as it gets, so let's cut to the chase - how much will we pay?
As cash house buyers we will purchase your house with cash but we will not offer you full market value for your property. We will offer you a competitive and fair price that is usually around 80-85% of market value.
To us as a cash buyer, property sales are all about efficiency and speed (as you’ve probably gathered by now), which is why we’ll buy your house for cash in as little as 7 days, so if you're thinking, I need to sell my house fast, we might be the perfect solution for you.
Over the phone we will give you our initial offer for your property, using local market data analysis to help find comparable properties to give you a competitive price that works for you and us. Then, we will send one of our Regional Managers to visit your property in person to confirm everything is okay with the property and the cash offer can still go ahead.
Visiting your home will allow us to take into consideration any unique features that your home possesses compared to the current houses on the market, as well as any potential issues, which get an accurate offer.
The location, condition, type of property etc. can all influence what we offer, so if your house is in a bit of a state, granted, this could be less, but if it’s obvious it’s been well looked after, our cash offer and initial valuation could well increase. Pretty much the same reaction as you’d get from buyers on the open market…
Quick cash offer for your home today!
When you want to sell your house fast the first question you’ll likely ask if you’re looking to take advantage of a Sell House Fast service like ours is exactly what amount you'll achieve for your property in comparison to the more traditional route, like using an estate agent and going on the open market through popular property portals.
At first glance, it would look like the open property market is the way to go. After all, we're honest and upfront about the fact our cash offer will be below the market value, so they can’t possibly be as good value, right? Not necessarily, it's still worth exploring a different selling route.
The main advantage of choosing us or any home buying company, over the open market is time, which if you’ve got a house to run, can quickly level the playing field - we'll even make an cash offer within 24 hours, and you can sell your home within days.
Sale Process | Traditional Estate Agent (9 Months) | Our Cash Buying Service (7 Days) |
---|---|---|
Property market value (Advertised Price) | £100,000 | £80,000 |
Offer accepted (Typical 5% Discount) | £95,000 | £80,000 |
Post survey negotiation | £92,500 | £80,000 |
Estate agent (£92,500 at 2% + VAT) | £90,280 | £80,000 |
Solicitor fees (£1000 + VAT = £1200) | £89,080 | £80,000 |
house repayments (£75K repayment at 5% PA = £563 pcm or £5067 for 9 Months) | £84,017 | £80,000 |
Utility bills and Council Tax (£375 x 9 months) | £80,642 | £80,000 |
Property clearance (skip & deep clean at £750) | £79,892 | £80,000 |
FINAL PRICE | £79,892 | £80,000 |
(Figures shown are based on a typical advertised property price of £100,000 which has come back with a RICS valuation of no less than £100,000, and the legal work and searches have shown that there are no issues concerning the property or its title. We would be able to pay up to 80% of the valuation if the property is in 'grade A' condition, of standard construction and is located in an area with average or above market conditions.)
Yet despite the figures, you’re still likely to opt for an estate agent when selling your property. Why? Because it’s traditionally how it’s done, even though a large proportion of agents have a habit of overvaluing. All of which slows your property sale down and has you forced to reduce the price to get good interest. And even then you’ve got viewings and a whole load of negotiating to do.
If you’re reading this thinking, “I need to sell my house quickly” then the open market is likely not the best route.
