Want to sell your flat fast? We’ve got the solution

We know selling a flat can be tough these days. Since the tragic Grenfell Tower fire in 2017, the government has set new, strict rules about the cladding on flats. If your flat’s cladding doesn’t meet these safety standards, it usually has to be taken down, and the costs fall on the leaseholders.

Speaking of which, leasehold complexities is another challenge when it comes to selling a flat. There’s a tangle of red tape surrounding lease extensions and management companies, all of which can scare off potential buyers. 

And we haven’t even got to problematic neighbours, confusing service charges and restrictive rules on what you can and can’t do with your property. What’s more, if your flat is in an area with fluctuating property values, securing a quick sale can be even more of a struggle.

Because of all of this, many potential buyers are turning away from flats. They’re worried about safety or the expensive cladding repairs, or they don’t want to be faced with uncertainty in the case of a short lease. And let’s face it, even if they are interested, securing a mortgage can be a big hurdle.

At SellHouseFast.co.uk, we offer a streamlined, efficient service that cuts out these complications. Our goal is to help you sell your flat fast, with a process that’s fast, guaranteed and tailored to your needs. We buy any house, regardless of its condition or the issues surrounding it, ensuring you get a fair deal.

Initial offer

Reach out to us and tell us about your flat. We’ll provide a clear, fair no-obligation cash offer for your property.

2

Condition assessment

We’ll arrange for a detailed report on your flat, including the condition, a floorplan, photos and a video walkaround. This helps us understand everything fully, which speeds up the process overall and gives ultimate transparency and accuracy.

Taking stock

Based on feedback from local expertise, we’ll review the price and ensure it fully reflects every aspect of the information we have gathered. If necessary we may increase or decrease the figure – letting you know immediately of course. Also, so that you know exactly where you stand, this step also involves a conditional exchange.
5

Survey

We arrange for a formal survey to look at your flat in close detail. If any major issues come up, we may need to revisit the price to adjust accordingly. We use qualified, experienced surveyors to ensure the process is quick, data-driven, transparent and fair.

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 house in order to relocate can be stressful. Simplify your move by letting us do the legwork, so you can focus on settling into your new home without any delays. Take a look at our Moving House Checklist for extra guidance.

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.

Poor property conditions

If your flat needs a lot of big repairs, selling it through the traditional methods can be especially challenging. We buy any flat in any condition, so you can skip the slow sell and instead enjoy the benefits of a fast cash sale.

Why you need to sell your flat fast — the data

In today’s property market, selling your flat fast has become increasingly important. Here’s some recent data that shows exactly why that is.

  • Over 100,000 flat sales are thought to have fallen through since the cladding crisis. Cladding problems can drastically reduce the marketability of flats.
  • The average cost of a 75-year lease extension in 2024 is £8,500. Extending a lease can be extremely expensive and time-consuming, ruling it out for many flat owners.
  • 35% of all property sales fell through in 2023. This staggering number shows the uncertainty and frustration faced by many flat owners..
  • 37% of buyers were gazumped in 2023. That’s a lot of derailed plans and wasted time and effort.
  • 26,315 properties were repossessed in 2023. A quicker flat sale may have helped avoid this route.
  • In 2023 it took 183 days or 6 months for the average property sale to complete – but it’s widely known that flats sell slower than houses, so the average time for a flat to sell is usually even longer.

These numbers paint a picture of the difficulties that can come up when selling a flat. It’s why SellHouseFast.co.uk has perfected a swift, dependable solution that allows you to avoid the frustration and costs of selling your flat the traditional way.

Alternatively, check out some of the most common questions we get asked below.

Selling a flat can be more challenging than selling a house. Flats tend to attract first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors – but interest alone doesn’t guarantee a sale. At SellHouseFast.co.uk, we offer an alternative to the uncertainty and waiting around: a quick and straightforward sale, with no fees.
Selling a flat with a short lease can be difficult, it’s true. Buyers generally prefer flats with longer leases, and a lease under 99 years may require you to extend it, which can be costly. Mortgage lenders might also be reluctant to finance flats with leases under 80 years, which rules out many potential buyers.

This is where SellHouseFast.co.uk can help though. We purchase flats regardless of lease length, using our own cash funds and with no hidden fees. Get a cash offer in moments and sell your flat fast with us.
Selling your flat to a cash house buyer like SellHouseFast.co.uk means you avoid the hassle of viewings and price negotiations typical in the open market. We buy any flat directly with our own cash, guaranteeing a sale and avoiding common pitfalls like chain breaks or last-minute buyer withdrawals. Start the process today with a free cash offer.
If your flat isn’t selling with a traditional agent, consider the most beneficial alternative. At SellHouseFast.co.uk, we guarantee a sale by buying your flat directly with our own funds. We can complete the purchase in a time frame that suits you. Our service is free, and you can start by getting a cash offer online today.
The time it takes to sell your flat varies based on location, condition, price, and market conditions. The average time it takes to sell a property is 6 to 12 months from listing to completion – and flats take longer than average. However, with SellHouseFast.co.uk, you can receive funds in a timeframe that suits you.
Selling a flat with cladding can be challenging and requires transparency with potential buyers about the cladding’s safety. An External Wall System (EWS1) form might be necessary to demonstrate compliance with safety standards. Legal advice is recommended to navigate these issues. In some cases, unsafe cladding may need remediation before a sale can proceed.
Not with SellHouseFast.co.uk. Plenty of cash house buyers charge fees and spring hidden costs on you at the last minute when you sell your flat with them. But with us, there are no hidden fees or extra costs. We believe in full transparency, so the cash offer we give you is exactly what you’ll receive.
Unlike some companies that buy houses, our genuine cash offer is based on a thorough assessment of your property. We gather information from you, carry out a condition assessment and survey, and get independent valuations from local agents. This way, our offers are fair and accurate, meaning you can sell your property fast, with total confidence.
We buy any flat in the UK. In fact, we buy any house, including houses, bungalows, and rural properties. No matter the condition or type of property, SellHouseFast.co.uk provides a quick and reliable process.
