Upminster, London

Did you know? Top facts to learn about the London town of Upminster

Located in the east London borough of Havering, Upminster is a town that for many centuries was a small rural village. Property development in the district increased significantly in the 19th century following the opening a railway station and a shift in the local economy from farming to making bricks. Here are some top facts to discover about this neighbourhood:

• Upminster is included in the Domesday Book, a survey from 1086 of England and most of Wales, when the district was known slightly differently as Upmunstra
• The name for the neighbourhood is said to derive from the Old English words "upp" and "mynster" that translate as the site of a large church on elevated ground
• The area mixes residential and commercial properties, with a large amount of retail outlets located on Corbets Tey Road, St. Mary’s Lane, and Station Road
• One prominent local landmark is Upminster Windmill, which was constructed in 1803 and is a Grade II* listed building that now serves as a museum

What are the benefits of selling your Upminster home fast to LDN Properties?

Selling your Upminster house or flat can produce several benefits that you might not get to enjoy if you wait a few months or longer to find a buyer for your property. LDN Properties can usually complete the purchase of a freehold or leasehold home in just a handful of weeks, which is typically much speedier than you can expect when using an auctioneer or estate agent.

One of the leading benefits of selling your home fast is that it significantly increases the odds of you getting a sale price that’s at or close to the property’s current value. The longer that you wait to find a buyer, the greater the chances increase that the housing market could have a negative turn that might have the effect of lowering the value and sale price of your home.

Another important advantage of a fast home sale is that you’ll get swifter access to the proceeds from the sale, meaning you can more quickly use those funds for whatever purpose first prompted you to sell your house or flat. We have been buying London homes for 15+ years, and during that time we’ve heard many explanations for why people want to sell their properties, such as funding a move overseas or somewhere else in the UK, selling to pay off mortgage arrears, dealing with a divorce or other major family situation, wanting to pay for upsizing or downsizing to a dream property, selling an inherited but unwanted house, and a number of other reasons.

There are other benefits to selling your home fast with LDN Properties, including the fact that we will never charge you any commission or other fees. That means you can count on receiving the entire amount of the sale proceeds from whatever offer we make for buying your home.

How LDN Properties calculates valuations when buying London flats and houses

There are many different factors that our experts consider when making a fair and speedy offer to buy a house or flat in Upminster or elsewhere in London. We have a long list of happy customers who have benefited from our streamlined and competitive offers, and we’re always willing to share with homeowners the exact justification behind our property valuations.

One issue that we will look at is whether you have invested money in making physical changes to the home, such as building an extension or a large renovation. We are looking to see whether the net effect of the work has been to increase or decrease your property’s total value.

Other elements that we frequently review when making property valuations include, but are not limited to, seeking input from home valuation professionals, asking the local planning authority for any important documents that might be relevant to your house or flat, looking at the current pros and cons of owning a home in Upminster, and browsing property sales websites such as rightmove and Zoopla to compare current and past sale prices of homes similar to yours.
