Welcome back!
Getting a Quick Property Sale in the present dismal property market seems like a desperate hope but there are things that can be done to try to Sell Home Fast.
I needed to Sell my House fast because I got a different job at the other end of the country and commuting was not viable. I had to go into a rental property to start my new job and I was forking out rent on top of a mortgage so a Quick Property Sale would be ideal for me. I was even set to take a hit on the value of my home just to get that fast house sale moving.
I went to some local estate agents for guidance and asked them “What do I need to do to make sure I Sell my Property fast”. All were helpful and keen to get my house onto their books but of course none could provide me with any kind of pledge as to how quickly they could ensure a sale. The one piece of good advice to come out however was that in the current situation it is essential to price property keenly if you want to sell really fast. One agent told me that my home needed to be the bargain of the locality, priced a few thousand below anything comparable and that should get viewings going.
It looks as if, despite the credit crunch, there are buyers out there, but at the moment they tend to be bargain hunters, looking for a really good price. Another estate agent told me that there are specialist companies who will buy nearly any home, provided the price is low enough. They will buy for cash, don’t need any lending and don’t need to sell a property to buy mine. I thought this was the answer to my prayers, but after ringing a few of these I began to realise that the sort of money they were offering was just a bit too low for me to accept, though I do admit I was tempted.
Finally I decided to put mine up for sale at a low price with one of the agents I felt had given me some good advise. I decided to give it a couple of months and then if there was no progress I would return to one of the Quick Property Sale companies I had spoken to. The best figure I had got was from one called The Fast House Sale Company and they sounded really friendly and organised. At 80% of the value, their offer was the best I got.
In the end a private buyer came along right away and even though he bargained me down even further I got a quick sale by being prepared to accept that lower price.
