Sell House Fast
Highams Park, London

What’s the best way to quickly sell your house or flat in Highams Park?

There are several options available if you’re looking to quickly sell a property in Highams Park, which is a suburban neighbourhood within the borough of Waltham Forest in east London and is known for having two sporting facilities – Rolls Park and the Jubilee Sports Ground. You can try selling via an estate agent, using an auctioneer, selling to a fast buyer, or selling on your own.

You’ll find that each method of selling has its own benefits and drawbacks, and that some approaches are very fast whilst others can take a long time. A couple of the choices will also require that you pay fees, which will lower the net profit that you’ll make from the sale.

Consider the details of each method below before making a final decision on how to sell your freehold or leasehold home in Highams Park in a way that best matches your needs.

Selling via an estate agent

When you sell with an estate agent, they will create and market a listing for your home that features a description of its main features along with photographs. They’ll organise viewings for prospective buyers, and they will also oversee any serious offers you might receive. But it can take a long time to sell this way, possibly months or even more than an entire year.

You’ll also have to pay an estate agent commission usually based on the sale price they are able to get for the property. This will be subtracted from the sale proceeds, which will inevitably reduce the amount of profit that you can count on making.

Using a property auctioneer

A property auctioneer will similarly prepare and advertise a listing for your home, and host the auction itself. Selling this way can be risky in that you never know what the final sale price might be. And your home receives no bids, it doesn’t sell and you’ll have to start again with finding another buyer.

Usually, it takes a few months to sell a property this way, because there’s a wait between when you list the house or flat for sale and when the auction takes place. And even if your property sells, the buyer often has about 28 days to then complete the purchase of the home.

Selling to a fast home buyer

Quick home buyers like LDN Properties are perhaps the fastest way to sell your freehold or leasehold flat or house. They have the funds available to immediately buy properties, with no waiting to get approved for a mortgage. As a result, they can generally complete the process of buying a home in just a few weeks, and that includes exchanging contracts on the property.

Another top benefit of using a quick home buyer is that the trustworthy companies will never charge owners any fees for selling their properties.

And they can also make offers to buy almost any age, condition, shape, size or type of freehold or leasehold property. For example, the long list of London homes that LDN Properties has experience with buying includes plots of land, dilapidated houses, flats with cladding, homes where the owner cannot find important documents such as the title deeds, listed properties, flats with dry rot, houses with an infestation of Japanese knotweed, and many other situations.

Selling your home on your own

Selling on your own can be a very stressful process, because you’ll have to take care of everything from developing and marketing the listing through to handling viewings and offers. It will require a lot of time, effort and money and it might be months before you sell your home.

The only obvious benefit of selling this way is that you wouldn’t have to pay a third party any fees for finding a buyer – but you can achieve a stress-free and zero-fee sale by using a quick home buying company such as LDN Properties. They not only promise to never charge owners any commission, but they can typically buy any type of home within a few short weeks.
