FAQ

Q. Will it take a long time?
A. No. Once we have surveyed your home at a time convenient to you, we will make you an offer to purchase within 24 hours. Thereafter, completion can take place normally within 10 to 15 working days, indeed, if your solicitor is available to draw up the contract on acceptance of offer, this timescale could be reduced.

Q. Will you pay me the market value for my home?
A. The market value represents what someone is willing to pay. Obviously there are a number of factors that will influence the amount we will be prepared to pay i.e. the condition of the property, whether or not a fast purchase is required, market conditions, location and the property's inherent appeal. You will be under no obligation to accept our offer and we shall explain the basis of our assessment.

Q. How long is your offer valid?
A. We will honour the price offered for 1 month. If after that time you decide to proceed with the sale we may need to revise our offer to reflect any changes that may have occurred in the market. If house prices have been stable we will continue to offer the original price.

Q. Do you only cater for quick sales?
A. Absolutely not. If you wish we can arrange the date of completion in-line with normal conveyancing custom and practice. We are completely flexible on this point and want to satisfy your requirements.

Q. Do I need to appoint my own solicitor?
A. Yes and No, you can use your own solicitor but we prefer you to use ours because they are tried and tested  and they understand that speed is of the essence but don't forget, we will settle the solicitor's reasonable account on completion at no cost to you.

Q. Do I need to undertake any refurbishment work before you will purchase my home?
A. No, this simply will not be necessary. We are able to source appropriate tradesmen to carry out any necessary refurbishment works after we have purchased the property from you.

Q. What will you do with my property if I decide to sell it to you?
A. Initially, we would normally undertake any refurbishment works that are necessary. Thereafter, we will either rent the house or simply sell it on. The decision to rent or sell is made on a strictly commercial basis i.e. tenancy demand and rental yield ­ v ­ capital appreciation attainable in current housing market.
