Houses For Cash UK Blog

Every body is asking how to prepare houses to sell fast in the UK at the moment and here are a few tips:

- Make sure it looks presentable at the front of the house as most people have made their minds up before even entering your house.
- Make sure the house is clean and tidy and smells nice
- Try not to have animals or children present when showing people around the house. This can be a terrible distraction.
- Make sure the colours in the house are neutral.

More on this in the coming weeks

What to do in UK with a house inherited, sell it or live in it?"

People who inherit houses are more frequently choosing private investment companies to sell their houses fast.
When people inherit property they generally want to release funds fast and in a slow housing market like today the quickest way is to sell to is to private investors.

If the funds are not required quickly the alternatives are to sit and wait for the best price or actually move into the house.

A lot of people in the UK are asking "how do I sell my house in 7 days", and the answer is to sell your house for cash to a private investment company.
Even auctions take longer because firstly you have to wait until the auction date, then you have to try and sell the house which isn't always guaranteed (people who go to auctions want real bargains) and then if you do sell you generally have to wait 28 days to get your hands on the money.

A lot of people are asking: "when is the best time to sell houses fast UK wide?" so I have one simple answer spring spring spring.

Why spring? Well here are some of the reasons:

- People are prepared to start fresh at this time of year with Christmas and new year out of the way
- The gardens are in bloom
- The weather is good and the light is bright
- A lot of people like to time their purchase by the end of the school year.

Summer is ok but the school holidays and generally people going on holiday can slow the market down.

Autumn is ok but in a slow housing market you don't want to be left with a house for sale in winter so sell very early in Autumn if you can.

Winter is the bleakest time to sell with bad light, bad weather, christmas and generally buyers are in hibernation

In a slow market the sentence we keep hearing is: "how do I sell my house fast for cash" or just "how do I sell my house for cash?" UK sellers are increasingly worried about the slow housing market and there is no need to worry because there are lots of companies who pay cash for houses. So get in touch if you need to sell a house. Cash fast is the way we operate with most completions taking between 7 and 28 days.

If you have lots of time to sell your house you may want to go the traditional way via an estate agent or you could try your luck at an auction. Either way will take longer so please take note of that.

A lot of advertisements in the UK read like this: "Need to sell house fast?" and they make lots of promises about completing house sales quickly but you must always be aware that some houses may take longer to sell because of various reasons:

- Structural problems - It may come up on the surveyors report that the house has structural problems, in which case the buyer may consider getting a structural engineer in which will slow down the house sale
- Your solicitor may work slower than the average solicitor and buyers can only complete as fast as both solicitors are prepared to move.

There are other reasons I will pick up on in the coming weeks

If you live in the UK, are in financial troubles and feeling desperate, house selling is probably the last thing on your mind right now but it may be the wisest option.

If you have mortgage arrears or if you are facing repossession then selling your house and renting it back may be best option.

- Getting another re-mortgage may just make matters worse, if you cannot pay your current mortgage then getting a bigger loan is not going to help in the long term.
- Burying your head in the sand and waiting to be repossessed and evicted is the worst option. You do not want to be left homeless.

Take action now.

Repossession of houses in the UK is rife at the moment. Lenders are far less lenient than they used to be so the best way to stop your home from being repossessed is to pay your mortgage arrears or secured loan arrears.

If the only way to clear the arrears is to sell your house then do it sooner rather than later. Repossession can leave you evicted and homeless.

We along with lots of other companies out there offer a rent back solution so there is no need to leave your home.

If you are facing repossession and you have no equity go to the citizens advice bureau and get some advice from them.

Companies that buy houses for cash range from individual private investors to massive corporations so make sure you know what you want before taking the plunge.

Whether it is the security of dealing with a big company or the personal service you will receive from a private investor it's important to understand that people are people and there are good ones and bad ones so it is worth doing your research before selling your home to them.

Did you get a good feeling when you spoke to them?
Were they professional when dealing with you?
Did they listen to your needs and find you a solution or were they pushy and aggressive?

Are you looking to sell your house yourself?

"DIY sell your house", seems to be the fad right now with people opting to use internet and newspaper advertising over Estate Agents.

Why is this?

The internet always finds a way to bully middle men out of the way so it was inevitable that hundreds of "do it yourself" websites would pop up and move estate agents out of the market but people are going private, mainly due to speed; estate agents are just not shifting properties fast enough.

There are hundreds of sites on the net but you need to bare in mind that most of them charge and they can only go as fast as estate agents with similar advertising means. It will however be a lot cheaper but the fastest way to sell your house is to at auction or sell to a private investment company. The latter will give you a guaranteed price where as an auction house cannot guarantee when it will go for.

Happy selling folks

"Sell this house fast", is the title on most of the emails I received today.

Is it the Northern Rock syndrome (people needlessly worrying) or are they in need of a fast house sale for other reasons?

I mentioned repossession orders yesterday and I think the prudent homeowners who are genuinely struggling are taking action rather than hoping it will all just go away so I think that blog really hit home.

Our consultants have been busy talking to people and the general consensus from today's enquiries is that most people calling are looking to sell quickly in order to sort their debts out.

As i said yesterday selling your house is one option and there are other options which we will discuss with you depending on your circumstances

We're going to be looking at different markets because it does change from place to place.

So starting with Manchester because that's where we're based I'll go through the situiation here right now:

Certain areas in south Manchester like Didsbury and Chrolton are still selling well compared to other areas but North Manchester and it's surrounding satellite towns are really feeling the pinch in the market right now.

"Sell my house privately Manchester" is the title today because again we will be focusing on Manchester and it's satellite towns.

"sell house to rent back manchester" is todays title because we are staying on the Manchester theme, it was going to be "sell your house and rent it back Manchester", but that just didn't sound snappy enough :-)

Again don't worry if you are based elsewhere in the UK we are definitely interested in your properties but as I said earlier in the week we are currently focusing the blog around Manchester and will be blogging in a city near you soon!

If you are based in Manchester and are looking to rent it back then call us today and we can do a same day viewing (if that is your preference).

"Sell your house manchester", is todays title because we are going to show you the various ways of how to sell your house in Manchester:

Estate agents - this option usually costs you about 2% of the house price and they do all the work. They do however have all the control and can play the seller and buyer off against each other and are just generally only motivated by earning their commissions.

Advertising - this is an option which can be done in classifieds or via the internet and the pro's include: full control and no commissions. The cons include: paying fees whether you sell or not and also handling all the responses and time wasters you will inevitably meet.

Selling to private investors or property companies - This is the fastest and easiest method but you may not get your intended price target

"Sell my own house manchester" is todays theme because, yes folks, it's another day of Manchester focus.

We've had lots of enquiries this week asking why we are focusing on Manchester and I want to set the record straight: We buy houses for cash everywhere in the UK, it's just that we are focusing on different cities with the blog.

Selling your own house, i.e. selling without and estate agent can be easy or it can be hard, if you are looking to advertise yourself then you have to be aware of how to create a good advert and then you have to deal with the response and weed out the time wasters etc. The altenative of course, is to sell your house to us :-), which is the pain free way to sell your house yourself

"Need to sell my house quick Manchester" is todays theme because we have had a huge amount of people enquire on how to their sell houses quickly in Manchester.

I think people are worried in the City because prices have seen a dramatic slowdown and the problem only seems to be getting worse. A lot of banks are increasing their rates regardless of what the Bank of England does, so this is having a massive effect.

I think a lot of lenders have been burned with Northern Rock being a prime example.

Some places in South Manchester haven't been hit as hard as the rest buy even Didsbury and Chorlton will start losing their buoyancy soon.

North Manchester is really struggling from all accounts
