Rated 4.7/5 by our customers
Using traditional estate agency methods to sell your home after a divorce or separation can take many months. You may also have the uncertainty of buyers pulling out of the sale and lots of viewings delaying the process even more. This can be incredibly frustrating and stressful if you are looking for a quick house sale to make a clean break from the relationship.
At House Buy Fast we aim to make the process of selling your property as quick and easy as possible.
We have cash funds readily available to buy property. This means we don’t need to secure a mortgage and once you have accepted an offer from us we are a guaranteed buyer - meaning we won’t pull out of the sale. Our staff are very experienced in getting property sales completed in just days or weeks - or to a timescale to suit you.
Divorce or separation is a difficult time for anyone but even more so if there is a family home to sell. We are experienced in selling homes quickly and hassle free - allowing you to move on with your life.Jonathan Rolande - Director
Our cash funds and experience in quick house sales mean that we can buy your property fast. Often this can happen in under 2 weeks - but it can be as fast as a couple of days or we can work to whatever timescale suits you.
We can do this quickly because we use our own cash funds to buy property, there are no chains, we use solicitors we know can act quickly and have staff with vast experience of the property market.
When selling your house to House Buy Fast you can be assured that there are no estate agent or solicitor fees to pay, no hidden costs and we do not charge for our service. You will also get a quick house sale, great customer service and a guaranteed 100% cash buyer.
As with all cash property buying companies the offer we will make for your property will be under market value. However, when you take into account all the other costs associated with selling through the traditional estate agency route you will probably be left with only slightly less than you would have received otherwise.
In the below table we set out some of the typical costs of selling a house through an estate agent and how House Buy Fast compares.

I found the help and assistance second to none.
My situation was extremely stressful and I got nothing but kindness and help. I was impressed with the level of knowledge and found Duncan far more knowledgeable than various people I needed to deal with at a very trying time for me.

What If My Situation Changes and I Don't Need to Sell My House Fast?
If your situation changes and you no longer need to sell your house that’s completely fine.
Remember, we pride ourselves on making the whole process zero risk and zero fees to the seller. We’ll even cover the costs of your solicitor until that point, so there is nothing for you to worry about if your circumstances do change.
Not the answer you were looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
Is the House Buy Fast Service Confidential?
Unlike selling your home with an estate agent the whole we buy any house process is confidential. House Buy Fast doesn’t advertise with for sale boards and we don’t advertise in your local area. We simply buy your property with no fuss.
House Buy Fast will instruct your solicitor and get a local surveyor to come look at your home in case we’ve missed any potential problems, such as structural damage.
No one else is going to know that you’re using our service and the property is changing hands until it has actually gone through.
Not the answer you was looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
How Quickly Will I Receive the Cash for My Property?
On average it takes up to three weeks to receive the cash for your property. This timescale is from the moment you enquire about selling your house to the day of completion. The process can be faster or slower depending on what you would prefer.
Not the answer you were looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
Does House Buy Fast Charge Any Fees or Costs?
We don’t charge you a penny when using our property buying service. House Buy Fast also covers all the house valuation fees - and don’t forget you’ll be saving money that you would otherwise be paying to an estate agent.
This means once you’ve received your property valuation you know that this is the amount of money you will receive at completion - no fuss - no fees.
Not the answer you were looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
Can I Use My Own Solicitor?
If you would like to use your own solicitor you’re more than welcome and we’ll cover the cost for you.
You also have the option to use a solicitor recommended by us. We’ll give you two or three options and the choice is entirely yours. As promised, House Buy Fast will cover the cost of any solicitors involved in the sell house fast process.
Not the answer you was looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
Can I Deal with One Person or is it a Call Centre?
We often get asked if we’re a call centre and the answer to that is absolutely not. House Buy Fast is full of individuals that have a wealth of experience in the property industry and understand the importance of excellent customer service.
You’ll be dealing with the same individual during the whole we buy any house process from your initial call right through to when we’ve purchased the property.
Not the answer you were looking for? Contact us and ask us directly either by email or phone.
Are House Buy Fast a Member of Any Professional Body?
We’ve been industry leaders in promoting a fair deal for sellers in the property buying sector, appearing on ITV pressing the issue.
We are members of The Property Ombudsman Scheme, meaning there is a form of redress if anything goes wrong with a property buying company.
We’re also founding members of The National Association of Property Buyers which was formed in 2013 to improve standards in the quick house sale industry and helped many sellers get a fair deal.
