Traditional Sale vs Selling to a Cash Buyer
Traditional Route
Selling through an agent often means waiting for tenants to leave, refurbishing the property, and navigating uncertain timelines. Many landlords face multiple fall-throughs and high costs.
Selling to a Cash Buyer
We offer a straightforward, no-fuss solution. You get a fair offer for your rental, tenanted or not, and we work to your timeline. You also avoid estate agent fees and gain peace of mind from a guaranteed sale.
Real Example – Landlady in Bognor Regis
One recent client owned two flats in Bognor Regis, both tenanted and in need of some updating. She wanted a clean exit before the tax year ended. We made a fast cash offer, worked around her timeline, and completed without her needing to evict tenants or spend a penny on refurbishment.
She saved:
Over £5,000 in agent fees
Potential capital gains tax on market uplift
Months of carrying costs on empty units
