How We Work

How We Work

Selling your house can feel overwhelming, especially when you need to move quickly or you're facing difficult circumstances. That's why we've designed three straightforward ways to sell your property — each tailored to different situations and timescales.

Whether you're dealing with repossession, divorce, relocation, or simply need certainty without the stress of a traditional sale, we'll work with you to find the option that fits your needs.

Our Three Ways to Sell

We understand that every seller's situation is different. Our service has been helping homeowners across the UK for over five years, and we've built three distinct routes to a sale:

  • Quick Cash Sale — We buy your property directly for cash, often completing in as little as 7–28 days depending on your circumstances and legal requirements.
  • Assisted Property Sale — We help you achieve a higher sale price by marketing your property while providing you with a guaranteed cash backup offer if the open market doesn't deliver.
  • Lease Option Sale — We agree to purchase your home at a future date, giving you time to resolve your situation while stopping repossession or other urgent pressures.

How the Process Works

No matter which route suits you best, our process is designed to be transparent and stress-free:

  1. Get in touch — Call us on 01277 715089 or email info@we-buyit.co.uk. We'll listen to your situation without any pressure or obligation.
  2. Receive your offer — After understanding your property, circumstances, and deadline, we'll provide a no-obligation cash offer in writing.
  3. Choose your path — Decide which of our three sale methods works best for you. We'll explain each option in plain English so you can make an informed choice.
  4. Instruct solicitors — We'll recommend experienced property solicitors (or you can use your own), and the legal work begins.
  5. Complete the sale — Once contracts are exchanged and searches are complete, we'll agree a completion date that works for your timeline.

Why Sellers Choose Us

We're not estate agents, and we're not here to push you into a decision. We're a cash buying company that offers genuine flexibility when you need it most.

Every offer we make is no-obligation. If you're unsure, we're happy to talk through your options — even if that means exploring a traditional sale or another solution. Our goal is to help you move forward with confidence.

How We Work

Over the years, while we have helped many people achieve an equitable cash offer on their home, unfortunately we also found homeowners who we could not help – because a quick cash purchase was not always suitable.

We worked hard to solve this problem by creating our ‘Sell Your House Fast’ service which offers 3 distinct services.

We believe these 3 services are unmatched by traditional estate agents, and ‘cash buying’ companies because it truly covers every situation we have been presented with over the years. Homeowners typically fall into two categories which are ‘need a fast property sale’ to ‘need the highest offer’. Only our Sell Your House Fast Service caters for both and together with our 3rd Lease Option product, we can even help homeowners who need to sell quickly, but are in negative equity.

Quick Cash Sale

Our Quick Cash Sale is the fastest route to selling your property. We make a cash offer based on your situation and timeline, then complete the purchase directly — often within 7 to 28 days, depending on your circumstances.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your property. Call us on 01277 715089 or email info@we-buyit.co.uk with basic details: location, property type, condition, and your ideal timeframe.
  2. We make a no-obligation cash offer. After understanding your property and any deadlines you're working to, we'll provide a straightforward offer with no hidden fees or charges.
  3. You choose whether to proceed. There's no pressure. If our offer works for you, we'll instruct solicitors and move quickly. If not, there's no obligation and no cost to you.
  4. We complete on your schedule. Once you accept, we work to your timeline — whether that's a few weeks or sooner if circumstances allow. You'll have a confirmed completion date, and we won't pull out or renegotiate.

Who is this for?

A Quick Cash Sale suits sellers who need speed and certainty over achieving the highest possible market price. It's particularly helpful if you're facing:

  • Repossession or mortgage arrears
  • Divorce or separation where a fast property split is needed
  • Relocation for work with a tight deadline
  • A chain collapse that's left you needing a Plan B
  • An inherited property you want to sell without the wait
  • Tenanted properties or homes needing significant repairs

We buy any property in any condition across the UK, and you won't need to arrange viewings, redecorate, or chase buyers. Everything is handled quickly and professionally, with clear communication every step of the way.

Get in touch for a no-obligation chat about your situation, or read more about our Assisted Sale and Lease Option services if you'd like to explore other routes.

Advantages

  • Instant Cash Purchase (7-28 days)
  • No Fees

Disadvantages

  • Below Market Value Offer
Assisted Property Sale

If you have more time and want to achieve closer to market value, our Assisted Property Sale might be the right option for you. Here's how it works:

What is an Assisted Sale?

We sign an 'Option Agreement' to purchase your property at close to market value, giving you certainty and peace of mind. We then take on the job of marketing and selling your home through our network of estate agents — at a fixed price you've already agreed, with no estate agent fees, conveyancing costs, or marketing charges to pay.

How Does It Help You?

  • Achieve a higher sale price — typically closer to what you'd get through a traditional estate agent, without the associated fees
  • No marketing costs — we handle all advertising, viewings, and negotiations on your behalf
  • No estate agent fees — the price we agree is what you receive, with no deductions
  • Certainty of sale — the Option Agreement guarantees we'll buy if the property doesn't sell within the agreed timeframe
  • Less stress — we manage the process, liaise with buyers, and keep you updated throughout

Who Is This For?

This service suits sellers who:

  • Want to maximise their sale price but don't want the hassle or expense of a traditional sale
  • Have a few months available rather than needing to complete in a matter of weeks
  • Would like the security of a guaranteed buyer while still testing the open market

What Happens Next?

We'll arrange a no-obligation survey to value your property accurately, explain the Option Agreement in plain English, and agree a realistic asking price. Once you're happy, we'll get your home marketed professionally across major property portals.

If you'd like to discuss whether an Assisted Sale is right for your situation, call us on 01277 715089 or email info@we-buyit.co.uk. We're here Monday to Saturday, 08:00–17:30.

Advantages

  • Instant Guide Price
  • Higher Sale Price
  • No Fees

Disadvantages

  • Slower sale (2-3 months)
Lease Option Sale

A lease option agreement can offer a flexible solution if you're in negative equity, facing repossession, or need to move but can't sell through traditional channels. Under this arrangement, we lease your property for an agreed period — typically 2 to 10 years — and take on responsibility for your mortgage payments, insurance, maintenance, and repairs.

At the end of the lease period, we purchase the property at a price agreed upfront. This gives you certainty now and removes ongoing liability, while allowing time for the property market to recover if values have fallen.

How a lease option works

We assess your property, mortgage balance, and rental income potential, then calculate a fair future purchase price. You remain the legal owner during the lease period, but we manage the property, cover all costs, and pay your lender directly each month. You're free to move on without the stress of missed payments or repossession proceedings.

Is it right for you?

Lease options suit homeowners who need to relocate quickly, are struggling with mortgage arrears, or whose property value has dropped below what they owe. Because these arrangements are legally complex, we'll always recommend you speak to an independent solicitor before proceeding. We're happy to explain the process in plain English and provide a no-obligation assessment — call us on 01277 715089 or email info@we-buyit.co.uk to discuss your situation in confidence.

Advantages

  • Guaranteed Cash Offer
  • Up to 110% market value offer
  • Negative Equity Solution
  • We take over your house
  • No Fees
  • You still own the property
  • You are tied into the contact

Disadvantages

  • Slower sale (2-10 years)
