How fast can I sell my house in Newcastle?

Completion in as little as 7 days is possible once searches are back, or on a later date you pick. Most sellers choose a date between two and six weeks out so they can line up their move.

What sort of Newcastle properties do you buy?

Mostly three-bed freehold terraces, semis and bungalows of around 80 to 90 square metres, built before 1965. Condition, EPC rating and dated kitchens or bathrooms do not change whether we buy, only the number we can put in writing.

Do I need to have listed with an estate agent first?

No. Most of the people we buy from in Newcastle have never listed. We work from an independent valuation and the local listings data rather than from an agent's asking price.

Will you drop the price before completion?

Once the survey is back we confirm the final price and completion date in writing, and that is the number we complete on. If a survey turns up something material we tell you what it is and what it changes before you commit.

What sort of Newcastle homes do we buy?

Tyneside flats that split a terrace horizontally into an upstairs and downstairs home, 1930s semis in Fenham and Denton, and bungalow estates north of the city.

The houses we buy most often in Newcastle are three-bed freehold terraces and bungalows of roughly 80 to 90 square metres, built before 1965, lived in by the owner, and never put on the open market. An EPC of D or worse, old wiring, a 1980s bathroom or a garden that has got away from you make no difference to whether we buy.

What slows a Newcastle sale down on the open market?

Tyneside flats are usually leasehold with a share of the freehold and mirrored leases between the two floors. Where the paperwork is untidy or the lease is short, an open-market sale can drag out for months.

None of that stops us. We buy with our own funds, so there is no lender to satisfy, no valuation to pass and no chain above you to collapse. Where a search flags something, we deal with it as a fact about the property rather than a reason to walk away.

Which Newcastle postcodes do we cover?

We buy across the NE area, including Byker, Walker, Heaton, Fenham, Gosforth and out to Wallsend, North Shields, Gateshead and Cramlington.

How the sale runs, start to finish

You give us the postcode and a few details. That takes about a minute.
We come back with an indicative range the same day, based on local listing data.
We instruct an independent valuation and a survey, at our cost.
We confirm the final price and your completion date in writing.
Our solicitors handle the conveyancing and we pay your legal fees.
You complete on the date you chose and the money lands the same day.

Should I check the local numbers first?

Yes, and we would rather you did. Below is what NE sellers are asking right now, how long homes are sitting unsold and what share of them have already cut the price. Weigh our offer against that, minus agent fees, minus the months of mortgage payments while you wait, and minus the risk of a buyer pulling out.
