Is it quicker to sell your New Eltham property to a quick home buyer?
There are a few different options available to you when preparing to sell your home in New Eltham, which is part of the borough of Greenwich in southeast London. This mostly rural area features properties that were largely constructed in the 1930s, and is home to several sports clubs including the RACS Cricket Club and the training ground for football club Charlton Athletic.
You can try to sell your home via an estate agent, a property auctioneer, or to a fast home buyer such as LDN Properties and there are potential pros and cons for each approach.
Selling your home using an estate agent can be helpful to the extent that the company will take care of producing a listing for your property, advertising it, and leading the viewings for people to see your home, although these can sometimes be inconvenient for homeowners.
But there are no guarantees about when your property might sell through this method, and there are cases where homes can remain unsold for many months or even for more than a full year.
Further, you will have to pay an estate agent commission if they are able to find a buyer for your home, so be sure that you can afford this deduction when planning the budget for selling the property and moving to a new one.
Property auctioneers will handle the work of advertising your home and selling it, and the date of the auction can give you a bit more certainty about when the property will sell because a winning bid on your home is considered a legally binding agreement to buy it.
But there is no certainty about how much money you will get at the auction, and you might have to settle for only receiving the opening minimum reserve price. This value can often be lower than most homeowners are comfortable with because the idea is to set the opening bid at a low price that will encourage several buyers who will then try to outbid each other with higher prices.
Also, you will have to pay auctioneers a commission for their work selling your home, although in certain circumstances you might be able to have the buyer pay these fees.
We believe that selling your property to LDN Properties is one of the speediest option available, because it will only take a few weeks and you won’t have to deal with any of the potential negative aspects of other methods of selling such as having to host viewings.
And if your home is struggling to sell because of a specific issue, we might be able to help because our friendly team has extensive experience buying a huge range of freehold and leasehold houses and flats, no matter their shape or size. A sample of the different types of homes that we’ve bought include flats above commercial properties, dilapidated homes, houses with structural problems such as subsidence, homes on noisy roads, and many other examples.
