Why might I need quick buyer?

In the current economic climate, where there are very few buyers out there, there are still plenty of people who need to sell their houses for whatever reason. It could be that you have inherited a house that you don’t want to hold on to, you have another property in mind and need to raise cash soon to avoid a broken chain, or you have fallen on hard times and need to finalise a separation or sell your house before it gets repossessed. Whatever the reason, you have probably spent a lot of time wishing that someone would just ‘buy my house now’, especially if you have had it on the market for a while.

How do they buy houses quickly?

A quick homebuyer company fills the gap that, in a normal property market, individual cash buyers would fill. The simplest way to picture this is to imagine a buyer who wants to do a cash deal to buy your property. In this case it's a company like house-quick-sell rather than an individual, but the principle is the same. They make you a cash offer, and all you have to decide is whether the offer is reasonable and whether it will allow you to solve your current problem.

How do I choose a company?

Obviously, you want to be sure you are getting the best deal and that the people you are going to deal with are reliable and trustworthy, so do a bit of research first. Essentially, you need a buyer with a number of characteristics, so ask yourself whether the company is:

1. Reliable and trustworthy

These have already been mentioned, but bear repeating. Don’t be afraid to ask around and seek testimonials from customers, or to ask questions about any aspect of the process. A trustworthy company will give you a straight answer.

2. Flexible

The buyer needs to work around your needs, not tell you how it should be. They need to be able to value your property when it is convenient for you, and adjust schedules so that any payments come through to you before you need it.

3. Realistic

This goes hand in hand with treating you fairly. In all contact with you, the company buying your property needs to be realistic about expectations. They should be able to tell you if a schedule isn’t possible, or if they don’t think the property is worth the same as you do.

4. Understanding

Any transaction is a partnership of sorts, and selling a house is no exception. A company that understands your situation is much more likely to be able to help you in the way you need, and provide relevant advice, than one which only cares about completing the next sale.

How House-Quick-Sell® will buy your house for cash quickly and fairly

The enquiry form will ask you some basic questions about the property, for example, the location, the type of property, details like the number of bedrooms and whether it has parking or a garage, and what the general market value of the property is.

Once we have the details, our team will value the property and make you a cash offer within hours.

This will typically be lower than the asking price of your property. (Tip: To roughly estimate the value of your property visit Zoopla and plug in your property details). However, as you won't be paying any commission to estate agents or any fees to solicitors the bottom line won't actually be much different than if you were selling to an individual, except the process will be much quicker.

Don't just take our word for it, you can read and watch raw (no editing) actual video testimonials from our previous customers on the right.
