Q: What kind of properties do you buy?
A: We purchase flats, houses and bungalows, leasehold or freehold, derelict, needing work or brand new.

Q: What's the top price you will pay?
A: There's no set limit. This is just as well, considering the value of some properties!

Q: Is the condition of the property important?
A: Not at all. We're interested in everything, from newly-decorated homes to properties with major problems. If repairs are needed, we can take care of them. It's not a problem

Q: What about an auction - maybe that's a faster option?
A: Auctions have their place, for sellers and bargain-hunters alike. But achieving a high final price can be a lottery, you have to wait for the next auction to happen, you have auction fees to pay and completion could take weeks.

Q: I'm in no rush at all to sell my home - should I contact you?
A: Yes. Our service also suits someone wanting the certainty of a guaranteed sale. Some people like the idea of agreeing a sale with us - so they're seen as 'cash buyers' and enjoy a stronger bargaining position when they start looking for a new home.

Q: Do you carry out a structural survey?
A: Not usually. It would delay the process. Our valuer will have a good enough idea. If we do decide to survey the property it would be one of our in-house, private surveyors and would take place within days. We don't use bank surveyors.

Q: My property has development potential. Can I benefit from this?
A: Yes. We recognise that some properties are ideal for development - even though the seller isn't in a position to manage this themselves. We can help by purchasing the property and agreeing with the seller to pay them a share of the profits when the property is developed.

Q: How fast can the sale be - from start to finish?
A: It can take as little as seven days.

Q: I have received a valuation from Sell My House Now but what if I don't want to sell today?
A: Keep us in mind for the future. We can offer a variety of purchase options including delaying the exchange and completion dates to suit your circumstances.

Q: Will my estate agent mind me selling through Sell My House Now?
A: They won't be overjoyed - because you're saving the likely 2-3% plus VAT they would have charged in commission! You get that money instead - and it's your right to sell direct. Please note that if you have already instructed an estate agent they may still try and claim a fee. Depending on the exact terms of any contract you have signed. Generally as long as you are not sole agency this will not apply. Even if you are sole agency then you can always cancel this arrangement.
