FAQ’s for selling your flat fast in London

It depends how you define ‘fast’.

Using an estate agent on the open market can enable you to sell relatively quickly.

However, there are no guarantees here – it all comes down to how well your estate agent markets your property, how quickly you find a buyer, market conditions, and more.

Alternatively, you could sell privately – if you already know a buyer who is ready and willing to buy right away.

Auction houses are another option. But again – these don’t guarantee a sale.

Ultimately, cash house buyers like We Buy Any Home provide the the fastest and more reliable way to sell.

Issues facing sellers looking to sell a flat in London

Selling a flat in London requires extensive surveying before mortgages can be confirmed by lenders. This adds crucial time and unnecessary stress for sellers.

There is also strict regulation around cladding, which many London flats have existing issues with.

This brings safety fears and removal costs, which can result mortgages being denied by lenders.

You need an External Wall System survey (EWS1) to confirm if a building is free from dangerous cladding.

There is a significant backlog for these surveys. And even upon completion, buyers might still be apprehensive.

This can create unforeseen challenges when selling a flat in London.

However, we can help. Regardless of whether the EWS1 form completed or not, we can give you an offer with the option of completing in as little as 7 days.
