Hi there!

Based on your responses, it looks like an Estate Agent is going to be the right option for you.

First, let’s cover why the alternatives don’t make sense. Then we’ll explain why this seems like the best fit, and how we may be able to help save you months of delays and frustration.

The alternatives...

There are three main ways to sell your house: You can sell directly to a House-Buying Company, sell via Auction, or sell through an Estate Agent.

House-buying companies and auctions offer a faster sale, but you get a drastically lower price.

Based on your responses, a House-Buying Company isn’t a good fit for you because:

Getting a good price is your priority.

(House-buying companies buy your home quickly, but they only pay around 80% of the market value – sometimes less. So you’d stand to lose £20,000+)

(House-buying companies buy your home quickly, but they only pay around 80% of the market value – sometimes less. So you’d stand to lose £30,000+)

(House-buying companies buy your home quickly, but they only pay around 80% of the market value – sometimes less. So you’d stand to lose £60,000+)

(House-buying companies buy your home quickly, but they only pay around 80% of the market value – sometimes less. So you’d stand to lose £100,000+)

You have 5+ months to sell.

(You have plenty of time to sell, so you don’t need to lose tens of thousands of pounds selling to a house-buying company)

Your property is worth over £650,000.

(It’s too expensive for a house-buying company; there are no genuine ones who buy in your price range)

Your property has a significant issue.

(House-buying companies like problem-free properties that will be easy to re-sell. Yours has issues, so they’d make an extremely low offer)

Auction isn’t a good fit for you either, because:

Again, getting a good price is your priority.

(Houses sold at auction tend to achieve 10-15% less than market value on average. So you may expect to lose £20,000+)

(Houses sold at auction tend to achieve 10-15% less than market value on average. So you may expect to lose £30,000+)

(Houses sold at auction tend to achieve 10-15% less than market value on average. So you may expect to lose £60,000+)

(Houses sold at auction tend to achieve 10-15% less than market value on average. So you may expect to lose £100,000+)

You have 3-4 months to sell.

(You can likely get a higher price and sell just as quickly another way)

You have 5+ months to sell.

(You have plenty of time to sell, so you don’t need to lose tens of thousands of pounds selling via auction)

You're selling this property and buying another.

(Auctions work to fast, fixed timeframes, whereas your onward purchase will be unpredictable – delays can creep in and the deal can collapse. So auctions are usually a really bad fit in your situation)

Your property isn’t a good natural fit for auction.

(It’s unlikely to appeal to developers, meaning you can probably sell just as quickly – and at a much higher price – using a different selling method)

So selling through an Estate Agent seems like the best option for you. It’s also the best way to get the highest price for your property…

Unfortunately, it isn’t easy though. There are 2 main problems:

  • Time. According to Zoopla, the average estate agent sale takes 25 weeks. (And that’s the average… meaning half of sales take even longer.)
  • Stress. It’s not just about it taking a long time... The process of selling a house is also stressful. In fact, it’s often ranked as one of the most stressful life events we go through.
So, what should you do next?

Thankfully, there are things you can do to speed up the selling process and get the quicker sale you’re looking for.

We may even be able to help you directly…
