Sell your house for free today

Can you really sell your house for free?

It’s completely understandable to be sceptical when companies claim you can sell your house for free, with no hidden costs or strings attached. In many cases, these offers seem too good to be true (looking at you, Purplebricks). But in some cases, it’s absolutely possible.

Thanks to advancements in technology, we no longer need to rely on traditional estate agents who charge hefty fees and take a large commission. Today, there are far more affordable online options to sell your home. 

While many estate agents still charge a flat, upfront fee (ranging from £100 to £1,999), some may offer a free service but with limited support. Often sellers are left to manage important tasks like photography, marketing and getting legal advice on their own.

Take Purplebricks, for example. While they may advertise a “free” house sale, you’ll quickly find that services like professional photography — a standard feature with traditional estate agents, come at an additional cost.

As of 2024, only a few companies offer a truly free, fully managed house-selling experience, and The Property Buying Company is proud to be one of them.

How we’ve made selling easy

As one of the UK’s leading house selling companies, we’ve built a reputation for making the process as simple and stress free as possible. Over the past 13 years, The Property Buying Company has evolved into a trusted brand, the UK’s most rated cash buyer, offering sellers a range of solutions tailored to their needs.

When you sign up with us, you won’t be dealing with impersonal call centres. Instead, you’ll speak directly to one of our expert property consultants, based in our office just north of Leeds. From start to finish, they’ll guide you through every aspect of the sale, while our dedicated progressions team ensures your transaction reaches the finish line smoothly.

Whether you want to sell in as little as 7 days or prefer a 28 day timeframe, we offer options that fit your situation. You can choose to sell below market value for a fast cash sale, or closer to full market value through our online estate agency. And the best part? You’ll never have to pay a penny in fees.

We buy any house for cash

Our cash buying service was the foundation of our business, and it’s still at the heart of what we do today. We help people from all walks of life sell their homes quickly, allowing them to move forwards with ease. Contrary to popular belief, many of the properties we buy aren’t from repossessions or people in financial distress, but from homeowners looking to relocate swiftly – although we’re fully equipped to assist in those situations as well.

We offer a service that can buy your house in as little as 7 days, covering all your legal and selling fees while managing the entire process for you. While we can complete a sale in just 7 days, most of our customers prefer a timeline of 1 to 3 weeks, which works perfectly fine for us. We’ll tailor the process to fit your plans and timeline.

And when it comes to the type of property? We’re not picky! We’ll buy any house, in any condition — whether it’s a 2 bed semi detached fixer upper, a 1 bedroom studio flat, or a pristine 4 bed detached home. No matter the size, age, or condition, we’re ready to make you an offer.

Get a full market value sale

Our hybrid online estate agency, The Property Selling Company, is one of the UK’s leading hybrid agencies, offering a streamlined way to sell your house for near full market value. Whether you’re selling to pre-vetted investors or regular home buyers, we can help you complete the sale in as little as 28 days.

What sets us apart is that we cover all the fees associated with selling your home, including legal and marketing costs. Unlike other estate agencies, we don’t offer confusing packages or hidden charges. Any service required to sell your house, from professional photography to legal support, is completely free. No catches, no surprises.

Sell any time of the year

Our newest house selling option, The Property Auction Company, makes it easy to auction your house quickly, with auctions held every couple of weeks. No need to wait the typical 28 or 56 days – sign up one week, and your house could sell as soon as the next.

The Property Auction Company is ideal for anyone with a unique property or one in need of some renovation, who still wants to sell quickly and achieve a price closer to market value. And the best part? You can sell at any time of the year! While seasonal shifts may affect traditional open-market sales, auctions remain unaffected year-round.

Never pay a penny

One of the biggest challenges homeowners face when selling their home is the overwhelming cost of fees, from estate agency charges to solicitor fees. These expenses can quickly add up, making the process more stressful and expensive than it needs to be.

At The Property Buying Company, we eliminate those costs entirely. With us, you will never pay a penny. We handle everything, so you can focus on what matters most — moving forward.

Selling made easy

How much could you save?

A lot! With the average UK house price sitting at £288,000, selling through a traditional estate agent could set you back between £2,880 and £8,640 in commission fees (excluding VAT). Even online estate agents can charge anywhere from £100 to £1,999. 

By choosing The Property Buying Company, you could save thousands by paying nothing at all and not having to worry about the additional £600 to £900 in solicitor fees.

No matter your reason for selling, whether it’s relocation, the need to release cash or simply wanting a faster sale, The Property Buying Company tailors our approach to fit your needs. Whether you need quick cash or are aiming for near market value, we provide flexible options to suit every seller.

We understand that “free” might sound too good to be true. However, The Property Buying Company is able to offer truly fee-free services because we have millions of pounds in cash reserves and have built efficient processes and strong relationships with solicitors. This allows us to cover all your legal and marketing costs while still providing you with a fair and competitive deal.

How The Property Buying Company compares

When it comes to selling your home, the costs and timelines can vary significantly depending on the method you choose. Here’s how The Property Buying Company stands out from other common house selling options:

Traditional estate agents

Selling through a traditional estate agent can cost up to £5,000 in commission and fees, with the process often stretching from 6 to 52 weeks. While you may achieve a higher sale price, the lengthy timeline and high costs make this option both slower and more expensive.

Other house buying companies

These companies can charge around £1,000 in fees and can take 6 to 10 weeks to complete the sale. While faster than estate agents, you’ll still face costs that eat into your profits.

The Property Buying Company

In contrast, The Property Buying Company offers a truly fee-free service. You won’t pay a penny — legal, marketing and other selling costs are all covered. Plus, our average sale is completed in just 2 to 3 weeks, making it the quickest and most cost-effective solution available.

Property Auctions

Auctions usually involve costs ranging from £2,500 to £5,000 with sales taking 6 to 10 weeks. While auctions are a good option for unique properties, the fees can add up and there’s no guarantee of hitting full market value.

The Property Auction Company, however, aims to revolutionise this process with a fee-free auction service, offering bi-weekly auctions that have been proven effective for homeowners whose sales have fallen through.

Online estate agents

Although online estate agents are generally cheaper than traditional agents, they still charge between £100 and £1,999 upfront, with some fees reaching as high as £5,000. On top of that, sales often take 16 to 52 weeks. Many online estate agents also offer limited support, leaving you to handle much of the selling process on your own.

By choosing The Property Selling Company, you’ll receive full estate agency support without the fees. Our service goes beyond what the major online estate agents can offer, delivering professional, hassle-free support from start to finish — all at no cost to you.
