Flats are a popular choice in Ipswich, and is it any wonder when it plays host to students from the University of Suffolk, and Suffolk New College?
The University of Suffolk had 4,946 full-time students in Ipswich in 2021-22, and Suffolk New College has around 5,000 at any one time — so to say there’s plenty going on, in terms of eateries, events and nightlife, is something of an understatement.
If you’re selling a flat in Ipswich, you should know that based on current market data, the average time to sell a flat is an eye-watering 255 days — around eight and a half months.
Why does it take so long? There are lots of things that could delay a sale: it could be service charges, sitting tenants, annoying neighbours, cladding issues or just too many properties in your chain. But that doesn’t mean your flat won’t sell, it just means more communication, time and/or paperwork might be needed to help the sale go through.
Got that sinking feeling? Want to get things moving faster without all the extra effort? That’s where SellHouseFast.co.uk comes in. We know Ipswich, and as an established flat-buying company, our experience in the market means we can take the hassle out of selling your flat.

How SellHouseFast.co.uk Works

But even in such a desirable location, selling property the usual way involves a lot of different steps. You have to choose an estate agent, and prepare yourself for potential buyers to come looking around, sometimes at short notice. Then you have to haggle over price and argue with solicitors who don’t return your calls.

Why you might need to sell your flat fast
When it comes to selling your flat fast, there are many scenarios where our service can be a gamechanger.
At SellHouseFast.co.uk, we understand that each situation is unique and comes with its own set of challenges. Here are some common scenarios where our quick, hassle-free sell flat fast service can make a real difference:
Cladding-related costs
Facing extensive repair costs, whether due to cladding issues or other maintenance problems, can be overwhelming – and for some they’re impossible. Sadly the very issues that cause you to want to get out fast are the same ones that can significantly delay the sale of your flat and decrease its value. SellHouseFast.co.uk offers a quick, reliable solution, buying your flat as-is, so you don’t have to worry about any big bills coming through the letterbox.
Leaseholder issues
Problems like difficult freeholders or high service charges can be a nightmare. If you’re tired of these ongoing hassles and you’re ready to put it behind you, At SellHouseFast.co.uk we buy any flat, and we offer an efficient, swift solution that delivers certainty and freedom.
Short lease
It can be more difficult to sell a flat with a short lease and extending can be time consuming and costly, but with SellHouseFast.co.uk, you have options. With a guaranteed cash buyer, you can get an instant cash offer and complete the sale within a week.
Rising ground rent
This could mean potential buyers are deterred by the increasing costs. Lenders may also be reluctant to offer mortgages on properties with high ground rents because they may worry the charges could affect the property’s value — but we have no such worries. We offer speed and certainty, and don’t need approval from mortgage lenders.
Noisy neighbours
Not only will this be a grind on your daily life — or the lives of whoever’s living in your property — but noisy neighbours can make the flat much more difficult to sell. We’re happy to buy it, regardless. Neighbours are no issue for us and we are happy to go ahead with the sale.
You’re a landlord who is retiring
If you’re a landlord who’s ready to retire and you want to liquidate your assets quickly, cash house buyers can provide a fast, pain-free option. When you sell your property portfolio to a cash house buyer like SellHouseFast.co.uk, our efficient and transparent processes mean you can retire sooner and with far less stress.
Divorce
Going through a divorce is difficult enough without shouldering the extra stress of selling your flat. We release you from this burden by providing a fast, straightforward sale. This means you and your ex-partner can move forward more quickly, avoiding drawn out (often emotional) processes.
Repossession
If you’re facing repossession, speed is everything. Because we buy any flat, We offer a fast way to sell your property to help you avoid the repossession process and settle any debts quickly. This can give you peace of mind and closure at a difficult time.
Chain breaks
There are little things in life more frustrating than a property chain falling apart. We can step in to buy your property quickly, so you’re not at the mercy of others’ whims or a missing survey for a property that’s got nothing to do with you.
Relocation
Trying to sell your property in order to relocate can be stressful, whether you’re moving for work or for family, and whether you’re moving to the other side of the world or to the other side of town. Simplify your move by letting us do the legwork, so you can focus on settling into your new home without any delays.
Financial hardship
If you’re struggling to make ends meet and need to access the money tied up in your home quickly, we can help. SellHouseFast.co.uk can relieve financial stress and provide you with the funds you need.

I need to sell a flat with a short lease, with no means to extend it

"This service was exactly what I needed. Everything was so fast and straightforward."

I need to sell my flat fast, with cladding issues
Selling a flat with poor cladding can be slow, costly and extremely tricky – and if you do want to sell your flat, you might well need an External Wall System (EWS1) form. This was developed by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and UK Finance to help lenders fairly assess how much a property is worth.
EWS1 forms are valid for five years, but are not a legal requirement — lenders may refuse a mortgage application where one cannot be produced though. The EWS process involves a fire safety assessment by a suitably qualified professional who completes the EWS1 form.
Unless you have the time and money to resolve any cladding issues you may have before selling, your only viable options are finding a buyer who can proceed without a mortgage, or going with a cash property buyer, like SellHouseFast.co.uk. We’re happy to buy your flat, regardless of its cladding issues.
"We were convinced we weren’t going to be able to sell the flat because of the cladding, but it was no issue at all in the end."
Sam Jones
I need to sell to avoid repossession
No one wants their property to get repossessed, but you might end up with only a short window of opportunity to sell your Ipswich flat before it happens. If you need help with clearing your mortgage arrears, if you’re trying to avoid additional charges, or even if you just want to clear your debt in a hurry, we can help. When you sell to us, you can free up your money for a new home and help keep your credit rating intact.
"This was the breath of fresh air I needed at just the right time, thank you so much."
