The open market doesn’t guarantee a sale — even after you’ve accepted an offer.
In England and Wales, nothing is legally binding until contracts are exchanged. Until then, a buyer can walk away, or a rival buyer can gazump them with a higher offer. A buyer can also gazunder you, dropping their offer at the last minute. None of this is against the law.
If your sale has already fallen through once, or you simply don’t want to risk it, a direct sale takes that risk away. There’s no chain above or below you, and no other buyer to lose you to.
See how a direct sale worksChain collapse
Someone further up or down the chain pulls out, and every sale in it collapses too.
Gazundering
A buyer lowers their offer just before exchange, betting you’re too far in to walk away.
Mortgage decline
A lender withdraws or cuts its offer after a survey or down-valuation.
Months of waiting
Weeks of viewings, then months of conveyancing, all with no certainty at the end.
We’re not a one-offer cash buyer. We find the route that fits your property.
Most companies advertising “we buy any house” make one offer, at one discount, whatever your situation. We look at what you actually have. It might be a straightforward house, a leasehold flat with a short lease, a tenanted buy-to-let, or a property that needs work. Then we propose the route that gets you the best real outcome — even when that isn’t the highest number on the page. If a traditional estate-agent sale would genuinely serve you better, we’ll tell you.

Decide what works for you
If you go ahead, independent conveyancers handle exchange of contracts, then completion, on a date that suits you.
Three things that actually matter.
Certainty, not just speed
We don’t depend on a mortgage or a chain, so there’s nothing above or below you to collapse. Once contracts are exchanged, the sale is legally binding on both sides.
We buy what the open market won’t
Short leases, tenanted property, HMOs and homes needing serious work — exactly the situations that put off a mortgage-dependent buyer.
Regulated and transparent
ICO registered, supervised by HMRC for anti-money-laundering and a member of the Property Redress Scheme. Every sale goes through independent, regulated conveyancers.

How the numbers actually work.
A direct sale almost always means a lower headline price than the open market. The trade-off is certainty and speed, and fewer costs along the way. Whether that’s worth it depends on your situation, so here’s an example with nothing hidden.
We’re a newly launched trading name, so we don’t yet have reviews of our own to show you. Rather than invent them, we use clearly labelled illustrative examples until real, verifiable reviews exist.

Realistic open-market value: £260,000.
- Open market, if it completes
- £260,000
- Less agent fee (1.5% + VAT)
- −£4,680
- Less 6 more months of mortgage, bills & council tax
- −£6,600
- Open market, net (before legal fees)
- £248,720
- Direct sale to us at 80%
- £208,000
Here, the open market would likely leave the seller around £40,000 better off, if the next sale completes. The direct sale swaps that for a fixed date and no further risk of collapse. For some people that’s worth it. For others it isn’t, and we’d say so.
Common questions from sellers.
How is this different from a normal estate-agent sale?
An estate agent finds you a buyer, but can’t guarantee the sale — offers can still fall through right up until exchange of contracts. When we buy directly, there’s no chain and no other buyer who can pull out. Once we exchange contracts, the sale is legally binding on both sides.
How much will you offer me?
For a direct cash purchase, our offers are typically around 75–85% of the property’s realistic open-market value, depending on its condition, tenure and local demand. That’s a genuine trade-off for speed and certainty, and we’ll always explain it. Every offer comes in writing, with the comparable sales evidence behind it.
Are there any fees?
Where we buy directly, or introduce you to an investor buyer, there’s no fee to you. If we think the open market would serve you better and introduce you to a partner estate agent, that agent’s own fees apply. We’ll always tell you which applies before you commit to anything. You’ll still need your own conveyancer, as with any sale.
How long does it take?
From accepting an offer to completion typically takes 14–28 days, subject to your conveyancer’s legal checks. It can be quicker where the paperwork is straightforward, or slower if we’re waiting on something like a Grant of Probate or a freeholder’s leasehold pack. We’ll work to a date that suits you.
Do I need a solicitor?
Yes. You’ll instruct your own solicitor or licensed conveyancer, acting only for you. That independence protects you, and it’s how every legitimate property sale in England and Wales works.
Will you buy a leasehold flat with a short lease, or a tenanted property?
Yes to both. We factor a short lease into our offer, so you don’t need to extend it first. Tenanted properties can be sold with tenants in place, with no eviction needed. See short lease & leasehold problems and landlord exit.
