Selling any property can be perplex and you may be left wondering, “what are the ways I can sell my flat quickly?” or “how do I sell my flat if it has a short lease?” Here at Pride in Property, we can offer you an alternative to a traditional open market sale with our sell flat fast service, we will buy your property in as little as 7 days, taking all the stress and hassle out of the purchase whilst covering all your fees.
The most general way owners have sold their flat has been through an estate agent. However, this isn’t the only method. There are different routes you can take, so we’ve broken down the options:
Also known as the “open market”, private selling is one of the most common methods. This works by advertising the flat with an estate agent, hosting viewings, or open house events for potential buyers who can submit an offer. Once you accept an offer, a contract of sale will be drawn up and both parties will have to instruct their solicitors to ensure the legal exchange and completion of contracts. Once everything is signed the flat will be owned by the buyer and you will have to pay the agreed fee to an estate agent. This is often a small percentage of the property’s sale price.
An alternative that not many people consider is to take your flat to auction. Auctions can be a really useful tool, particularly if you’re selling a property that needs repairs or if you want to sell your flat quickly, but auctions may not be as quick as you think often taking months in preparation for the actual auction day.
Part exchanging your flat is another option you have if you are looking to buy a new build property in return. Although it seems like an appealing prospect, you should be aware that they will typically only offer you between 65-70% of your property's value in exchange for taking away a lot of the hassle of selling. Although this is an option if you are looking for a sell my flat quickly solution as they'll buy it in time for you to move into a new build.
We are one of many companies in England and Wales that will offer you the ability to sell my flat quickly, but we’re one of the few that have our own cash facilities. The way this works is that generally we will offer you below market value for your flat, but in return we can purchase your property in as little as seven days. This allows you to fix situations such as chain breaks, help you move for a great work opportunity or stopping your flat from being repossessed.
If you’ve ever wondered ‘how can I sell my flat fast?’, you’re in exactly the right place. As a regulated property buyer, we at Pride in Property are positioned to offer reliable and honest advice about achieving a quick property sale in 2022.
It’s becoming increasingly important for people to buy flats with a longer lease; if you’re trying to sell a flat that has a lease under 89 years then chances are you are going to be asked to extend it. This is due to some house repayments lenders not offering house repayments on leases under 80 years and lease extensions increasing in price. For those reasons, it can be extremely difficult to sell my flat quickly if you’re on a short lease, so if that is the case and you are struggling to get your lease extended, you may want to seek alternative options for selling your flat.
We buy flats in the same way as we buy houses, which means we can buy your home in the same time frame. If you're looking for a quick solution, we can offer that, and we typically quote that we can buy your flat in 7 days or we can buy your flat in a timeframe that best suits your requirements.
We're completely honest and transparent from the start, and we'll be the first to tell you that we can't offer you the full market value for your flat. The figure we typically offer is around 80% of the true market value of the property, but this depends on a variety of different factors, and we can sometimes achieve more, or less, depending on the property. The best way to find out exactly what we can offer you is just to have a quick conversation with us in which we can go through the flat in more detail and provide you with a more accurate initial figure.
