Local Middlesbrough Estate Agents:

Are estate agent valuations accurate?
Estate agents Middlesbrough have valuations that vary from estate agent to estate agent. There are a variety of factors at play that will determine how honest your valuation is, but the main factor will be your estate agent's honesty. Your estate agent Middlesbrough may overvalue your property in order to gain your business. This will mean that if you go with this estate agent and then struggle to sell, you will be stuck on the open market for months.

Once you have accepted their cash offer you will usually have the payment processed within a few days.
How the buying process works if you’re a cash buyer
Middlesbrough cash house buyers are people or companies who can purchase your property without the need for a loan or mortgage to be able to complete the sale. You will still need to hire a conveyancer, which can often be the longest part of the house-selling journey. However, when you sell with us we will cover the cost of your legal fees if you go through our agreed solicitors.
How long does it take for a cash buyer to complete?
Fast property buyers in Middlesbrough can often complete sales within 2 months of having an offer on a property accepted. Here at The Property Buying Company, we can buy your property in as little as seven days, and then it is over to the conveyancer to complete the process.
Do you need a solicitor if you are a cash buyer?
Yes, you will. When you sell with cash buyers in Middlesbrough you will still need to instruct and hire a solicitor to progress your house sale for you. Your solicitor will make sure the sale progresses as it should. When you sell with us, we will hire a solicitor and cover the costs for you, taking away the stress of your house sale.

Exactly how long the conveyancing timeline will take varies from solicitor to solicitor, however, the average waiting time is between 6 to 8 weeks. As a special thank you for selling with us, we will cover all of your solicitor's costs for you that you would associate with a typical house sale.
Middlesbrough House Auction
If your property can be classed as slightly unusual, then a Middlesbrough house auction could be a selling route for you to explore.
Middlesbrough property auctions are becoming an increasingly popular choice for selling, but if you wish to use one you will need to get familiar with the difference between a guide price and a reserve price as these are set for each lot.
A guide price is a lot like a valuation, it is the price that the auction house or the seller thinks the house is worth.
A reserve price, on the other hand, is the minimum amount a seller is willing to accept for the property, but this figure is often kept quiet. A guide price for a lot is like a valuation.
It's the price that an auction house or the seller thinks the property is worth. A reserve price on a lot is the minimum payment that the vendor will accept, but this is usually kept private.

However, it is worth keeping in mind that even if you put your home on a Middlesbrough house auction you are not guaranteed a sale.
