There are several ways to sell your house in the UK.
There are four main ways to sell your house:
- You can sell with an estate agent
- You can sell via property auction
- Or you can sell directly to a house-buying company.
- Sell it privately yourself
Selling your home directly to a reputable, well-funded “cash house buying company” is the fastest way to sell your house. Most of these companies will make you a formal offer within 24 hours, and will be able to complete the purchase within as little as 2-3 weeks
We can help you with all of these, yes including selling your home yourself. Contact us for further information.
Freehold
The freeholder of a property owns it outright, including the land it’s built on.
Leasehold
You only own a leasehold property for a fixed period of time. You’ll have a legal agreement with the landlord (sometimes known as the ‘freeholder’) called a ‘lease’. This tells you how many years you’ll own the property. Ownership of the property returns to the landlord when the lease comes to an end.
Shared Ownership
Allows you to buy a percentage of a property, paying a mortgage on the share you own and rent to a housing association on the remainder.
Common freehold
An alternative to leasehold ownership of flats, and other properties that share communal areas or services. Instead of owning property as a leasehold for a fixed period of time, with commonhold you own your property as a freehold indefinitely.
