Ultimately, every property is worth the amount that someone is willing to pay for it!

At the peak of the property market buyers would end up in bidding wars on houses, driving the prices up. Now, with the majority of buyers being limited on how big a mortgage they can get, bidding wars are a thing of the past, and many are offering under the asking price.
With fewer buyers out there, and those that are being pickier about the house they decide to buy, houses on the open market can take a long time to sell. However, here at National Cash Buyer we will agree a price with you for your house and have guaranteed funds available to give you a quick and easy sale.

If you would like to get an idea of the value before we make you an offer, why not take a look at the prices of the properties that are for sale around you? Or, take a look online at the actual prices paid for properties recently sold nearby? You could ask a few estate agents to give you a valuation and compare their amounts and what they say they have based it on.

Who will buy my house for cash ...
... and give me a free valuation?

A national property buying company can generally give you an initial valuation over the phone or online, and if you like the price, can then proceed to arrange for an independent valuation to be done to confirm the value of your property, all with no obligation to sell at any point.
As you can see with today's current financial climate, properties in the UK are not selling as quickly as they were 5 years ago, and valuations are coming in a lot lower. This is purely down to the fact the market was more buoyant prior to the recession, and houses generally were selling for more.

The offer you will get from a quick sale agency will be based on a RICS valuation, which is the Royal Institute Of Chartered Surveyors, and independent body assigned to determine the value of a property. Unlike an estate agent valuation or the valuation that you will receive from a property buying company, this valuation is official and can be presented for mortgage purposes.
