About Preston
Achieving city status in 2002, Preston is one of the UK’s most improved cities in recent years, with huge investment in the area.
It’s an area known as one of the best cities to live and work in the whole North West and that’s increasing because of its various regeneration schemes.
The reason you probably landed on this page though is that you own a property in Preston, and you probably know most of this if you’ve lived there in recent years.
What we can help you with is the understanding of property in the area, and currently according to Zoopla over the last 12 months as of September 2021 the average house price in the area is at £196,437.
Preston's property market
Let’s have a look at the property market in the city in a little more detail, Preston as you can see that we previously stated, has slightly lower house prices than the UK average.
The thing you might be most interested though, is how long it may take to sell your home.
Home.co.uk provide exactly those stats, and in September 2021 it took 194 days of a property sitting on the market to go to sold status. This doesn’t include the time until it actually completed.
Flats generally took the longest to sell, as they usually do, at a significant 311 days. The quickest to sell, just behind detached was semi-detached properties at 114 days.
When you compare these stats to other cities, Preston has a relatively slow property market – taking the nearby Blackburn as an example, that has an average time on the market of just 139 days.

Your selling options in Preston
You’ve hopefully decided that now is the time to sell, or else why would you be here? Well, you have a few options on how you can choose to sell it, here are the main three choices and whether or not they might suit your requirements:
Estate agents
This is by far the most common way people in Preston choose to sell their property, and well, anywhere in the UK in fact.
It’s essentially an estate agent listing your property on the open market, using the likes or Rightmove, Zoopla & others. You then rely on the general public to bid and purchase your property.
Using this method, you’re likely to achieve closer to market value than the others, but the main disadvantage is there’s no set time to when you get that sale and you’re relying on the buyer, usually, to get a mortgage.
Auctions
Another popular option, often when a house fails to sell on the open market, is to go to a property auction.
An auction can be a good way to sell certain kinds of properties, auction goers are mostly looking for good deals on properties that they can flip or rent out to tenants, so if your property fits the mould, it could be a great option.
Most people tend to think that auctions are really quick, and on the day, they are, but there’s a lot that goes into getting a property to that stage.
It takes around 6-10 weeks for the property to be prepared and there’s no guarantee on the day that you’ll sell.
It can be a great option, especially if your property creates a bit of a bidding war, but usually people who attend auctions are savvy and on the look out for a good deal – however, you can set a reserve that you are comfortable with.
Cash house sale
Here’s the option that we can provide you, a quick sale in as little as 7 days.
That being said, we don’t offer you full market value for your Preston property, so it isn’t a suitable option for everyone.
We do however offer a quick sale with no hassle and no fees, we even cover your solicitor costs.
This option is great if you require a guaranteed date of sale and want to move quickly. If you can wait for the duration the open market will take, you’ll likely receive a higher amount.

Benefits to selling quickly
Aside from the obvious being you can move on with your life quickly, there are several other benefits to a quick sale that you may not have considered. We've listed just a few of them below for you:
We cover the costs. Worried about solicitors fees? Don't be.
If you went for a traditional sale you could be on the market for months, costing you a lot on utility bills, council tax and more.
We take all the hassle and stress out of a traditional sale - we handle everything.
We can even lend a hand on helping you negotiate an onward purchase or arrange removals.
What can we offer for your Preston property?
This is a question we always get from people online, particularly, social media.
It’s impossible to really answer, every property is wildly different, the location, size, type, condition will all play into what we can offer you.
We do not offer a set percentage, it massively varies.
The best way to find out exactly what we can offer is to have a quick conversation with one of our property experts.
Honesty & transparent approach
It’s important to us that we offer a honest and transparent approach right from the start of the conversation.
Not everyone is familiar with our service, and what we can offer, so we fully explain everything you need to know right at the start of the process – and we’re completely honest about the fact we can’t offer you full market value, just a fair value!
Honesty is so important in this process, because there is no point trying to pressure sell our service as it needs to work for both parties, or later down the line it simply won’t work out.
