What is a cash house buyer?
A cash house buyer is either an individual or company with sufficient funds to pay for the entirety of your property. While there are numerous benefits to using a cash house buying company for your property, such as being able to sell your house incredibly quickly, you must also take care and consideration to ensure you only work with a professional and reliable house buying company.
As you can imagine, not all home buyers who use cash to buy property are trustworthy. Some are simply acting on behalf of other organisations and may charge extra fees for services such as arranging surveys. Others may also attempt to profit further by selling your information to third parties. At We Buy Any Home, there are no hidden fees or expenses and we guarantee that you will receive the final quoted price for your property in full.

Getting started
To start the process off, either call us directly or enter your details into our short online enquiry form. Filling in our enquiry form won’t take long, we just need some simple details from you – including your accurate, up-to-date contact details and your property address. You’ll then be contacted by a member of our experienced buying team to discuss your property and our process in detail.
Making an offer
Within 24 hours of submitting your enquiry, We Buy Any Home will give you a call to take some more details on the property and determine its true market value. During this conversation, we’ll discuss your ideal timeframe for selling, as well as answering any queries you have regarding the process. Based on our own market knowledge, the details you have supplied, and our desktop valuation using third party tools such as Land Registry and RightMove Plus, we will make you an initial cash offer for your home – which will be the best possible price we believe we can pay for your property. If you’re happy with our initial offer, we will send it to you in writing, either online or in the post.
Final cash offer
After you have accepted our offer and filled in the necessary paperwork, we will arrange for a maximum of 2 RICS qualified surveyors/ valuers to assess your property and provide accurate value. At this point, we will also appoint you a solicitor from our panel. We will then make a final offer based on the valuations of these valuations and the expertise of our in-house underwriting team.
Are all cash house buyers trustworthy?
Not all quick sale companies that buy properties for cash are trustworthy, and trusting a company with one of your most valuable assets – your home – can be nerve-wracking. Follow our recommendations for vetting your cash house buyer to ensure you can trust your cash house buyer to get you the best value for your home in the best amount of time.

As the UK’s largest cash house buyer, We Buy Any Home has the funds to purchase your property directly, and don’t rely on any chains, or third-party lenders.
Market value
Be cautious if your cash buyer offers you market value for your property. It is not possible for a genuine cash property-buying company to offer 90-100% of the market value of your home, and they will no doubt drop the offer later.
If a quick house sale company claims they can offer you full market value, ask them how they make money as a company, and whether the offer of your property will likely be dropped.
At We Buy Any Home, we provide a genuine and realistic offer from the start. We make it clear to all our customers that we cannot pay market value, but that we can offer a certified sale with a completion date of your choosing.

View more reviews "Faultless"
I found the whole process faultless. Right from my initial enquiry the communication I received was excellent, all the way through to the completion of the sale of my property. I would be happy to recommend We Buy Any Home.
"Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them"
We approached We Buy Any Homes after our house sale fell through at the last minute. We were keen to progress with our onward purchase and the team at We Buy Any Home provided that opportunity. It was a smooth, easy, straightforward process and we were guided throughout the process. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
As featured in
We Buy Any Home does not...
At We Buy Any Home, we are transparent about how much we can purchase your property for from the start. We make sure our customers are aware that, whilst we cannot offer full market value, what we can offer is a guaranteed sale in the time frame you want, with none of the stress or uncertainty you’ll experience on the open market. That’s why our customers rate us as “Excellent” on Trustpilot.
Never trust a property buyer that gives a cash offer for your home at full (or almost full) market value. Certain “sell your house for cash” companies will make an unrealistically high offer on your property as a way to win your business and tie you into a contract. They will then reduce the offer later down the line, once your onward plans have been secured.
At We Buy Any Home, we complete your sale in the time frame you want – you just pick the completion date and we’ll work to it. The quickest we buy your house for cash in just 7 days!
An untrustworthy cash buyer property company will intentionally delay the sale of your property. They may choose to drag the sale out for months on end, until you have all your onward plans tied up, then drop the value of your offer in the hope that you have no option but to accept it.
Some cash buyer property companies are eager to tie you to restrictive terms, principally asking you to sign an “option agreement” on your property. This means they place this option on the Land Registry, locking you into using their service, even if you find a better offer elsewhere. They rely on customers to not understand the implications of this, and so use it to strong-arm a sale at a price you aren’t happy with.
At We Buy Any Home, we never ask you to do this. We have a very simple contract that states our commitment to you, and that if your offer value drops by so much as a penny (should your formal RICS survey uncover any unforeseen defects) you are totally free to walk away. In addition to this, we guarantee to beat the price of any genuine cash house buyer.

Frequently asked questions when buying your house.

How do cash house buyers make money?
That’s simple; we’ll either put the property we have purchased on the market straight away, renovate the property if needed and then put it back on the market, or we will rent the property out. As a business, we do of course need to cover our own buying and selling costs and make some sort of a profit on the purchase, which is why we’re unable to purchase properties for full market value. We provide a guaranteed, quick and hassle-free sale and the trade-off is that you potentially could get more for your property if you were prepared to wait it out on the open market, where there are no guarantees.

What kind of people use a cash house buyer
People choose to use a cash house buyer for all sorts of reasons. Some people may require a cash sale to avoid repossession or to help themselves out of financial difficulty. Often, couples who are filing for divorce will choose to use a cash buyer for the speed, to avoid a house sale dragging proceedings out.
At We Buy Any Home, many people use our service to sell an inherited property, are looking to relocate, want to go travelling or simply want to downsize. For many, we are a preferred alternative to the open market due to the efficient, guaranteed and stress-free service we deliver.

What percentage of market value will you pay?
Like other cash home buyer companies, unfortunately, we can’t pay full market value. However, UNLIKE other cash-buying companies we can pay 80% to 90% of full market value and also have our Best Price Guarantee – which means that we always guarantee to beat any genuine offer another company makes you.

Why do you not pay full market value?
We’d love to pay more. In addition to covering the costs of running our business, as a company we pay much higher stamp duty than the average buyer would – and we have the cost of selling the property on, renovating it or renting it out. If we were to pay full market value, we’d quickly go out of business and then would no longer be able to provide the alternative selling solution that we do.

My property is on the market, when should I consider using a cash house buyer?
It is of course completely up to you at what point you consider using a cash house buyer, however, if you’ve been on the market for a while with very few viewings and no offers, or even lots of viewings and no offers, it may be a good idea to consider an alternative solution for selling your property.
You may also want to consider using a cash house buyer if there is an issue with your property which makes it unmortgageable, such as subsidence or Japanese knotweed.
As we’re a cash buyer, we’re still able to buy properties with these sorts of issues, and as often the cost of repairing the problem would far outweigh the potential benefit of selling on the open market, in the majority of cases you’d be better off coming to us straight away.

Do you ask for any upfront payment?
We never ask for any payment, upfront or otherwise, nor should any other “sell house for cash” company. We don’t charge a penny for our service.
This even extends to our valuations, you can get a free cash offer today!
Is there any cancellation or withdrawal fees?
On the rare occurrence that an offer has to change (for example if the survey detects a major defect to the house that was not previously known) then you can withdraw from our service totally free, even if it’s by a single penny!
If the offer hasn’t changed, and you have simply changed your mind, then a small charge may be incurred, depending on the resources and time we have spent on your property sale up to that point. We work on a case by case basis, and rest assured that we are very considerate to each person’s circumstance.
You can start the process today. Get a free cash offer now!
Do I need to sign a lock-in contract?
We ask that you sign a simple contract, stating our obligation to purchase your property from you at the agreed-upon price. Should our offer change once we receive the RICS survey results (if, for instance, it revealed an extreme case of subsidence) then you are free to walk away from us.
