Quick Buy - Frequently Asked Questions

Do you buy all types of property?

Yes we buy all traditional residential properties throughout England. We also buy tenanted properties and land with or without planning permission.

How much will it cost me?

We do not charge any fees. You will not pay any Agents Fees, Valuation Fees or Legal Fees whether you use our solicitors or your own.

Do I have to have a HIPS?

Part of the terms of HIPS, is that any private sale WILL NOT require a HIPS or Home Information Pack. Your sale to us is a private sale, so selling to us means we do not require Home Information Pack, nor do you need to provide HIPS.

How long does the process take?

This depends entirely on your requirements. We are fully flexible, we can exchange contracts within 24h if necessary and complete at a time to suit you.

How much will you offer for my property?

Typically we will offer you between 75-85% of the open market value of your property. To obtain a genuine open market value on your property we are using independent, fully qualified RICS Chartered Surveyors.

Below is a brief example of the figures involved when selling through an estate agent


Asking price of		£160,000
Typically you will receive an offer at 7% below asking price	-£11,200
Estate agency fees are typically 2% of purchase price +VAT	-£3,496
Your solicitor fees with VAT	-£750
The process can often take six months during which you are still making mortgage repayments. Assuming the outstanding mortgage is £100,000 and the rate of interest is 6% this represents further costs of	-£3,000
Home Information Pack	-£500
Taking all these costs into account at the end of the sale you will actually receive		£141,054
£141,054 represents 88% of the original market price

If you were to sell to Quick Buy there would be NO estate agency fees, NO legal fees, NO Home Information Pack fees to pay and as we offer a quick completion we can save you months on your interest repayments.

In addition, if you are looking to sell a property and buy a new one not only do you achieve the savings outlined above but by selling to Quick Buy you effectively become a cash buyer yourself and that means that you are in a position to negotiate a higher discount level on the purchase of your new property as you can move quickly.

I have a problem. My property is in poor condition and requires total modernisation. Can you still help me?

Yes! House sales can be arranged for properties which require modernisation and refurbishment.

Do I need a Solicitor?

Yes, but remember we will pay the fees.

Do you buy properties with tenants?

Yes. We already have a large portfolio of tenanted properties throughout the UK and are keen to add more.

Why do you refer to yourself as a cash buyer?

Because we have the funds - and we're ready to proceed right away. We don't need to delay the process by waiting for a mortgage company to approve the loan.

Can I recommend a Friend?

Yes, and we will pay a generous commission to you.
