Sell House Fast Barnes Cray, London

Questions to ask your quick home buyer

When you use a quick buyer to sell your house or flat, you have the opportunity for a streamlined process through which you can complete the sale within a few weeks. That can sometimes be much speedier than using an estate agent or auctioneer, but you should still do some advance research before choosing this option given how important a home sale can be.

Below you’ll find a few sample questions that you should consider asking a fast home buying company, as the answers will give you invaluable insight into how their business operates. Their responses will also help to alert you to any potential problems about selling your home to them.

How much commission will you charge me when buying my home?

This is a crucial query because legitimate fast home buying companies such as LDN Properties generally don’t charge any fees for buying houses or flats. We believe that homeowners should get to keep all of the proceeds from selling their homes, and so if a fast buyer is asking you to pay commission, then you should be cautious about selling your home to them.

Do you try to get homeowners to sign sale and rent back agreements?

Another top question because some fast home buyers will try to get you to sell your home to them by promising that you can still live in the property after the sale is complete by renting it from the buyer. However, there is often nothing to prevent the buyer from trying to evict you after six months, which could ruin your long-term plans if you intended to rent it for many years.

Will you make me sign a lock out agreement before buying my property?

Lock out agreements are not necessary in the fast home buying industry, and you shouldn’t sell your property to a quick buyer that asks you to sign such an agreement. These agreements give the company exclusive rights to buy your home for an extended period of time, blocking out all other offers, but a trustworthy fast buyer doesn’t need that amount of time to buy your home.

How do I know that I can trust you with the sale of my property?

Most of the speedy home buyers that you can trust are members of The Property Ombudsman (TPO). This is a third-party entity that writes regulations which aim to guard homeowners against scams in the fast home buying industry. Be cautious about selling your property to a company that isn’t a TPO member because they don’t have to follow those rules and you risk falling victim to fraud.

LDN Properties gives you a simple way to sell your Barnes Cray home

Launched in 2003, LDN Properties gives homeowners throughout London a straightforward and no-hassle method for receiving competitive and speedy offers for selling all shapes and sizes of flats and houses, regardless of their age or condition or whether they are freehold or leasehold.

We are happy to talk with people looking to sell throughout the city, including in the south London district of Barnes Cray in the borough of Bexley. This area used to be a hamlet with less than 20 homes until the start of the Victorian era, and its close proximity to the River Wansunt was used by several now-demolished businesses including a printing works and a carpet mill.

Our team can make offers to buy your home whether it’s a dilapidated house, if it has a potential structural problem such as dry rot or subsidence, if it’s located in an area that some people might not find desirable such as selling near a railway line or under an airport flight path, whether it is built from concrete or another non-standard construction material, and many more examples.

And we promise that you won’t pay any fees when you sell your home to us, which means that you can count on obtaining the full proceeds from the sale. In contrast, if you sell your home through an estate agent or auctioneer you will have to pay them potentially large commission.
