If your home is taking a long time to sell, it may be for a number of reasons. However, the longer it sits on the market, the more difficult it becomes to get a good price. We work closely with our clients to determine what their needs are in terms of a sale and we then put a buying solution together to give the best offer. In many cases this is higher than most people are prepared to go, as the number of properties on the market increases, crating a “Buyers Market”.

Relocation or Emigration:

If due to work or career circumstances, you are in need of selling your house, you may find that, achieving a good price in a short time frame is not always possible. Rather than settle for a lower offer – up to 25% below your properties market value, we can help by making you an offer to purchase in line with the true property valuation. Then, dependent on the amount of equity you have in the property, we can allow you to take up to 75% of the property valuation away in cash, with the remainder being paid at a date that is mutually agreed upon.

Buying another house:

If you are in a chain and have bought another property, only to find that your chain has broken down, the burden of covering the debt on 2 properties can be financially crippling.

An underperforming investment:

A number of Landlord investors have found that with the tightening squeeze on yield, their investments have been underperforming in the SW London area. As interest rates climb – which they are guaranteed to do over the next 18 – 24 months, some investors may find their portfolio under pressure. We are able to assist by looking at the portfolio to identify the properties which may longer fit within the original investment strategy. Those “problem properties” would not likely be of interest to another investor – unless purchased for a significant discount. We take a broader view as to how we see the property being best utilized. We offer Landlords the opportunity to get rid of these properties whilst providing them with a realistic market price.

Financial difficulty:

Personal debt in the UK has risen to an all-time high. Inevitably Taxes are following as the Government tackles our National Debt. Soon interest rates (the cost of borrowed money) will be forced to increase. This combination of factors will place a lot of families under severe financial pressure.

If under these circumstances, it becomes necessary to sell your house, we are able to help. We work with and would introduce, specialists with debt consolidation and Creditor – Mortgage company negotiation, whilst we look at buying your house and finding you a more affordable option.

Downsizing:

Having spent your working life bringing up a family and climbing the property ladder, there often comes a time, when it becomes desirable to “Downsize”. In doing so, couples can get access to some of the equity in their property – possibly reinvest in more property (at home or abroad) of just enjoy their retirement.

It may not be Tax efficient to take all the surplus equity out at once. We are able to offer solutions that meet the needs of people who wish to downsize, but do not want to needlessly give funds to HMRC.

Divorce:

We offer a fast and discreet buying service for people going through Divorce. As it is our policy to always offer the highest possible price for a property, and to exchange as fast as possible, it can be one less stress to have to deal with.

We need to meet both property owners either separately or together, to discuss what each party wants to achieve. Once this is understood, we undertake to present an offer within 24 hours.
