Sell a Tenanted Property
Want to sell a tenanted property fast? We’re here to help.
Selling a tenanted property isn’t always the smoothest of processes. There can be a variety of challenges, from navigating complex tenancy laws to dealing with tenant objections — and don’t even get us started on the logistics of organising viewings at times to suit everyone involved. The hurdles can be daunting when selling a property with tenants, but with SellHouseFast.co.uk, you can sell your tenanted property quickly, on your schedule and with minimal hassle.
Which is no mean feat when you consider that selling a tenanted property really isn’t that simple. There are a huge amount of hoops to jump through and regulations to stick to. As all landlords will be all too aware — and as just one example — Section 24 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 states that the lease will only automatically expire at the fixed term if the landlord or the tenant terminates the lease by serving notice under the Act. Which is not always straightforward, as something of an understatement.
Regulations (such as EWS1, or a lack thereof) can also cause a headache. EWS1 lets valuers know that your building has undergone a fire safety assessment, and helps them to put a value on the property that considers whether remedial works are needed. And when selling a tenanted property, making sure this is in place can be something of a process. The added joy of the highly regulated nature of the property industry, is that they change on an all-too frequent basis, so remaining abreast of the latest developments is a must.
Aside from all that, in practical terms, tenants can refuse to allow viewings; it may be that they’re subletting the property without your permission; relations may have broken down between landlord and tenant; or they may have taken misguided legal advice — the process can be fraught with complications.
In fact sitting tenants can — to an extent — refuse to leave at all, and this will only be exacerbated by a new law that will ban Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions. According to the most recent King’s Speech, this will be introduced alongside legislation to “give greater rights and protections” to tenants.
Luckily, we specialise in buying properties with tenants in place, with our seamless solution that saves you time, stress and money. Our service is designed to be fast, dependable and personalised to your unique needs. Our extensive experience means we fully understand the specific challenges of selling a property with tenants — and we’re here to help you overcome them.
Selling a house with tenants can feel impossible. Despite adhering to the Decent Homes Standard, landlords can still fall foul of unexpected issues when trying to sell their tenanted property, such as pet damage, cladding problems, tenants who are uncooperative or the financial strain from maintaining the property — all of which can make selling feel unachievable.
But we’re here to make it not only possible but a positive experience. At SellHouseFast.co.uk, we buy any house in any condition, ensuring a swift sale so you can move on with peace of mind. Plus, as we buy homes for cash, you won’t have to fret about financing falling through or deal with drawn-out negotiations.
