Is it quicker to sell your Coldharbour house or flat to a fast home buyer?
There are usually three options available if you are looking to sell your freehold or leasehold house or flat: you could use an estate agent you could use a property auctioneer, or you could contact a fast home buyer like LDN Properties. But all three methods have different timelines, and if you’re in a rush to sell your home then some of the choices available to you might not be a good idea.
Estate agents will create a listing for your that includes text detailing the property’s main features, and also includes photographs to show off the rooms and the exterior. They’ll advertise this listing in their offices, in local newspapers, online and elsewhere. And then they will lead viewings where potential buyers come to see your home in person.
But selling this way can take many months, and might even take more than a full year. Some homeowners also say that viewings are very inconvenient and require a lot of their time. You’ll also have to pay an estate agent commission, which would reduce your final net profit from the sale.
Property auctioneers require that you set a reserve price, which is the lowest value you’re willing to sell your home. If you only receive one bid during the auction at that price, your home is deemed to sell. Some homeowners like this relative certainty of selling, but you’ll need to find a reserve price that will still see you make a profit even after you’ve paid the various expenses.
You might also have to wait a few weeks between the day that you list your house or flat for sale and when the auction takes place. And there can be a further delay of an average 28 days after a successful auction for the sale process to be completed.
