Quick Sale

Cash-based purchases that reduce delays and stress. Confidential, straightforward conversations.

Why a Quick Sale?

There are many circumstances where a quick cash-based sale gives the seller a much-needed exit. The UK average sale time from instruction to completion was around 14-38 weeks (Oct 2025).

Common delays include inefficient finance or mortgage lenders, inefficient solicitors, delays multiplied through a chain or chain breakdown.

A cash purchase that doesn’t rely on traditional mortgage lending can hugely speed up the process. Although the price offered may be below an estate agent’s recommendation, it can avoid ongoing time and costs.

Pricing Trade-Off

Although a quick sale price may be under an estate agent’s recommendation, it can prevent:

  • Prolonged maintenance during an extended sale period

  • Ongoing costs (insurance, council tax, utilities)

  • Missing the next property because the sale took too long
