What is a cash House Buyer?

Cash house buyers are companies that purchase homes without selling another property or applying for a bridging loan or a mortgage.

Cash house buyers are also prepared to overlook condition issues with the property.  Here at Property Saviour, we will make you a fair offer, taking into account any work that’s required, and make you a proceedable offer.

You can achieve around 90% of market value with an estate agent.  If you are not in a rush, this is a route we’d most certainly recommend.

With a cash buyer, you will get the certainty and convenience of a quick house sale.  However, as you can appreciate, any cash buyer will be looking to make around 20% gross profit on your property.  There are around 10% transactional costs. These costs are calculated as follows:

  • Legal costs for buyer & seller – 2%
  • Stamp duty – 3%
  • Holding costs (utilities) & light refurbishment – 3%
  • Resale costs – 2%
 
Be careful, though; not all cash house buyers are the same.  Many cash buyers within our industry use bridging loans to fund their purchases.  Here’s how to spot this on Companies House:
Look at Companies House to see their history of borrowing.

If any cash house-buying company offers you 80% of the value, the offer is probably too good to be true. 

As the property market cools, we are seeing an increase in the volume of enquiries from sellers who have been let down by these so-called cash buyers.  Having wasted several months of their valuable time and costing them thousands of pounds in extra mortgage payments.

Are Companies That buy Houses for Cash Legit?

We can’t speak for all cash house-buying companies, as trust has to be earned.  Sell my house fast for cash industry isn’t regulated by the UK Government.

Never blindly trust; always verify that the company you are dealing with is legit.

Before selling your house to any cash house buyer, you’ll need to do your research:

  1. Are they a cash buyer without the cash? Check on Companies House for charges.
  2. Can they give you proof of funds in the form of a bank statement? If their reply is, ‘We don’t work like that!’, then walk away.
  3. Do they carry out valuations? Valuations are a must when borrowing money.
  4. Can you use your own solicitor? Most will insist that you use their solicitors!
  5. Will you have to sign an option agreement?
  6. Who is the buyer? Many operate as online estate agents/property auctioneers.  Some websites will sell your details to their ‘pre-vetted buyers’.

Different ways to sell your house

There are several ways to sell your house depending on your circumstances, including:

  • Estate agents – online/hybrid (self-employed) and traditional High Street agent
  • Auctions – traditional and Modern Method of Auction
  • Cash house buyers


We’ll compare them all to enable you to make an informed decision:

Method of Sale

Pros

Cons

Estate agent - High Street

There is no sale no fee usually.

Your local agent will know the area.

Likely to get you best price from an owner-occupier.

Accompanied viewings by agent.

Handle negotiation for you.

Sales progression is included.

Professional photos and floor plans are usually included as part of your negotiation.

Can take a long time to sell.

Over-value properties to win instructions.

Not suitable for a quick sale.

Properties needing work may not suitable due to buyers requiring mortgage.

May seem more expensive compared with online estate agents with thousands in fees at usually 2% plus VAT of sale price.

Receptionist won't not know the property as they've not seen it so can't answer specific questions that a buyer may have.

Property chains can make things difficult.

Agent may tie you into a 3 or 6 month contract with punitive exit clauses.

Estate agent - Online / hybrid model

Low fixed fees.

Usually one-man/woman band means direct contact.

If you have a local agent, he/she will have better knowledge of property so will be able to answer buyer's questions.

The notice period is minimal because if you 'sack your agent' you will have lost your upfront fees.

Upfront fees that are non-refundable.

You may have to do your own photographs and floor plans or pay additional fees for this service.

There's no guarantee of a sale.

May not be interested once fee is banked.

You'll have to do own viewings.

Negotiation is usually extra. You are encouraged to do your own.

You are responsible for sales progression unless you pay extra.

May try and upsell your buyer with conveyancing and mortgage broker service.

No recourse once you have paid if your single contact (a self-employed estate agent) 'leaves' the business.

Lots of uncertainty as sale may take several months to conclude.

Cash house buyers

Genuine cash house buyers can complete relatively quickly.

There are no fault finding surveys with us.

There are no fees to pay.

There are no chains or delays.

Property Saviour price promise means the price agreed is the price you'll receive.

We've have genuine reviews left by real sellers just like you.

Some may not have the cash and need a bridging loan hence survey is imperative.

Price is usually renegotiated after the survey or just before exchange of contracts.

Quite a few of them use 'fake reviews' filmed on actors in a professional recording studio with perfect scripts, ideal lighting and so on.


Auctions

The process is much quicker than using an estate agent. Usually an auction can conclude within two to three months.

There are upfront fees for entry fee (non-refundable), solicitors fee for preparing legal pack and searches.

It is not the fastest way to sell especially if you need to get hold of cash quickly.

Modern method of auction means you could be £10,000 worst off because of buyer's premium - a fee/commission that is paid directly to the auctioneer and their 'partner' estate agents.

The sale is not guaranteed because the buyer can walk away - even after a legal exchange of contracts.

Auction property are usually associated with 'problem properties' and your nosey neighbours could turn-up at open viewings.

Low guide prices are encouraged to get bids going. Warning: you could end up selling your property at just 10% over the guide price.

Not all auction houses are the same and specialist knowledge is required in order to sell successfully.
