How cash buyers calculate an offer
Reputable buyers start from evidence: recent comparable sales from HM Land Registry, the property's condition, the cost of any works, and their own costs of buying, holding and reselling. You should be able to ask what evidence an offer is based on and get a straight answer.
Checks to make before you accept
Before accepting any cash offer, ask:
- Are you buying with your own funds, or will you pass the deal to another investor?
- Will the offer change after a survey, and on what grounds?
- Are there any fees for me, including deductions at completion?
- Can I use my own solicitor?
- Is there any lock-in or exclusivity, and for how long?
How we work
We buy directly. You tell us about the property, we review the local sold-price evidence and its condition, and we give you a firm, no-obligation cash offer, usually within 24 hours. If anything found later would change the figure, we explain it in writing. There are no seller fees.
Questions
Are cash house buyers legitimate?
Many are, but practices vary. Ask the questions above and get every offer in writing.
Is a cash offer final?
Our formal offer is based on the property details and any valuation required. We explain clearly if anything changes it, before you commit.
