What is a Cash House Buyer?

A cash house buyer is a business that can pay you up-front cash for your property. In Sheffield, there are not many organisations that offer this service – but Sold.co.uk is proud to be one of them.

Cash buyers do not typically operate as part of a property chain. This means that you can sell your house in a timeframe that is most convenient for you. You can also guarantee that the sale goes ahead.

Cash house buyers make their profit by purchasing property below the market value. They will ‘do it up’ and then sell it at a higher price.

This strategy enables companies like Sold.co.uk to pay for your legal fees and not take a commission on the sale.

People often want to use a cash house buyer because they don’t have the time or effort to make repairs to the property or decorate. Hiring a professional to do it for you can also be an expensive process, as well as time-consuming. So, it’s often easier for property owners to sell to a cash house buyer who will purchase the property no matter the condition that it is in.

You’ll generally find that trustworthy organisations have:

  • Independent online reviews across multiple platforms
  • Happy clients they can refer you to
  • A detailed website which answers all your questions
  • A phone line you can call up and speak to a member of the team

If a cash house buyer sounds like it would be useful for your situation, it’s crucial to do your own research and due diligence before making any contact.

Unfortunately, not every business has good intentions, so it’s crucial to be thorough before making any commitments.

You’ll want to work only with cash house buyers in Sheffield who belong to regulatory bodies, such as The Property Ombudsman. Sold.co.uk is proud to be one of these organisations.

For a trust-worthy cash buyer with outstanding TrustPilot reviews, contact Sold.co.uk today.

What price can you expect from a Cash Buyer in Sheffield?

In Sheffield, the average property sells for £250k on the market. This is noticeably lower than the UK average price of £362,000 – however, this means that you can get some excellent deals in the city.

Keep in mind that your location within Sheffield will also make a major difference. Certain areas are valued higher than others.

For example, in Birley, properties average a sale price of £189,572, whereas in Fulwood, properties sell on average for £540,532.

Not only does location impact price, but the type of property will influence how much you will receive. For example:

  • The average price of a detached home is £413,654
  • Semi-detached houses average a sale price of £220,005
  • Terraced properties average around £184,696
  • The average flat price is £ 150,906

To determine how much you could get for your house, get in touch with Sold.co.uk and we will make a free, no-obligation valuation of your property. In general, you receive a slightly below-market rate from us, but will also have your legal fees covered (and no commission taken on the deal) to reduce your expenses.

Whether you choose to accept our offer is entirely up to you.

Warning signs when using a Cash Buyer

You should be cautious when selecting a cash buyer to sell your Sheffield property to.

While Sold.co.uk has helped plenty of people in the city to offload their house, not all companies are as trustworthy or legitimate. Often, if the offer you’ve received seems ‘too good to be true’… then it is.

There are a few warning signs you should therefore look out for when picking a company to partner with.

In an ideal world, you will only partner with a cash buyer if the following conditions are met:

  • Avoid restrictive long-term contracts
  • Ask for proof of funding
  • Answer any questions you may have
  • Meet a member of their team in-person
  • No delay tactics
  • A realistic, honest valuation

Legitimate cash house buyers will not offer you the full market price for your Sheffield property, and if a company does, then you should be extremely cautious in proceeding with them.

Get in touch with Sold.co.uk if you want a reliable cash house buyer in Sheffield to sell your property to.
