Sell House Fast
Catford, London

The process of selling your house or flat in Catford fast to LDN Properties

The district of Catford, within the east London borough of Lewisham, is an area where LDN Properties can make a fair and speedy offer to buy all types of freehold and leasehold houses and flats. This neighbourhood has a good blend of commercial and residential properties, and includes a local landmark of a huge fibreglass black cat sculpture called the Catford Cat.

It’s fast and simple to sell your home to LDN Properties, and starts when you call us for a no-obligation quote. Within the first hour of talking with you, we should be able to make an initial price offer for buying your home, and you’ll have at least a full week to consider it.

If you accept our tentative offer, the next step is for one of our friendly representatives to visit your home. This is a chance for them to inspect the inside and outside, and it’s also a perfect time for you to ask any remaining queries about selling your home.

The final step is when your solicitor works with us to quickly complete the necessary legal documents for selling your home. Within a handful of weeks we will be able to finalise the sale, exchange contracts, and ensure the full proceeds are paid to you as quickly as possible. It’s a much speedier process on average than using a property auctioneer or an estate agent.

And unlike estate agents or property auctioneers, we promise that you will never have to pay any commission or other fees if you sell your home to us. Ever since we launched LDN Properties in 2003, we’ve always wanted owners to keep their full proceeds from selling their homes. By contrast, you’ll have to pay auctioneers and estate agents fees that could significantly reduce your final sale profit.

Top queries to ask an auctioneer before selling your property in Catford

You might be thinking about using an auctioneer to sell your Catford home, because there’s the potential to make a decent profit if many people want to buy the property and keep trying to outbid each other by offering ever-increasing prices for the house or flat. If your property receives a bid at the reserve minimum value then it is deemed to be legally sold.

But the process can take at least a couple of months, including a wait between the day on which you list your home for sale and when the auction takes place. If your house or flat sells, there’s also a wait of an average 28 days for the buyer to complete the process of purchasing it.

Should you be thinking about using an auctioneer to sell your home, consider calling or emailing different companies and asking them some of the questions below. The responses that you receive will help you to determine whether this method of selling is the right one for you.

What fees will you charge for selling my house or flat?

Auctioneers charge commission for the work that they do in selling your home. By asking this question of many companies you could be able to identify an auction house with lower fees than its competitors, which can be vitally important if a higher commission would cut into your overall sale profit significantly.

Have you successfully auctioned my type of home previously?

If you have a non-standard home, such as a dilapidated property, asking this question will help you discover the odds that an auctioneer can successfully find a buyer for it. Some auction houses might have never sold your type of home, and so they may not understand how to attract any bids for it — and if you receive no bids, your property will be considered unsold.

What is your overall strategy for marketing my property?

Another important question that will give you insight into how a particular property auctioneer operates. Whatever the company says in response should let you know how serious they will work to advertise your home and generate interest from buyers. An auctioneer who can’t identify a solid plan for marketing your house or flat is likely a company that you shouldn’t use.
