Is it worth it to sell your house to a cash buyer?

You’re probably asking yourself if selling your property to a cash buyer is a worthwhile thing to do. Don’t worry, it’s a legitimate question and one that many people ask—mainly because they know it’ll likely mean the final sale value will be lower than the expected market value of their property.

Sure, this is true in most cases, but the big draw of selling to a cash buyer is selling at speed. It’s not the right process for everyone and we’ll be the first to admit that, but it’s the perfect solution for those who value their time over the amount they’ll have in their bank account after completion.

In an ideal world, we’d all get full market value for the properties we sell, but circumstances can often influence our best courses of action. Whether or not selling to a cash buyer is worth it to you depends on your personal situation—if you need to sell quickly before a certain date, it could work out well for you, but if you’d rather wait it out and sell on the open market for potentially 100% market value, it might not be the service for you.

It’s important to weigh up your options and understand what’s most important to you before you make a call. Let’s take a look at what selling to a cash buyer involves so you can decide if it’s right for you.

Common reasons for selling to a cash buyer

People use quick sale services like ours for a range of reasons and we can honestly say that no two sales are the same. Here are some of the most common reasons homeowners turn to our experts at The Property Buying Company to sell their homes: 

• An arranged sale has fallen through, e.g. broken chain

• In the process of divorce

• Relocating to a new area

• Inheritance/probate

• In need of some equity release

Indeed, broken property chains are more common than you might think. They can be incredibly frustrating and stressful, so we try to help where we can as a cash buyer to make sure you can still go ahead with your move. It might well mean accepting an offer under the market value of your property, but for what you lose in money, you make up in time, convenience and peace of mind.

Whether it’s a quick exit from a difficult situation or a quick sale that means the purchase of another property can still go ahead, selling to a cash buyer can be an ideal solution. With us, it means you get a guaranteed sale with only a single viewing, as well as having removals arranged and getting your costs covered (yes, that includes solicitor fees, too).

Add to that the fact that we can even help you find a rental property or a mediator between partners if needed and you’ve a got a whole host of benefits when it comes to selling to a cash buyer.

Even if you don’t go ahead with the sale via a house buying service like ours, your initial offer will still be entirely free—get in touch now to enquire about yours:

Alternatives to selling to a cash buyer

If selling to a cash buyer is not the best route for you, there are other options, of course. You can go down the traditional route and sell on the open market, which is a good option if you’re aiming to get full market value for your house, although it’s never guaranteed. 

Another option is to look at auctioning off your house via a professional auction service—this is a viable route for a relatively quick sale, too, but there are fees to pay and details to organise weeks in advance if you are to get it listed locally.

Here’s how they stack up to help you make the right decision according to your circumstances:
