Which parts of the country do you cover?
We buy property throughout England, Scotland & Wales.

How long does it take?
Very quick, if that’s what you need. We can exchange the same day or within 24 hours from your first call, this is especially important with repossession / eviction circumstances. We are able to recommend a solicitor today who we know will act quickly for you. We will keep you informed at all times of the progress of your sale.

Do I need to vacate the property?
No, not if you are going to rent it back from us. We can agree a fixed rent back period and an affordable rent from the outset and you can continue to live in your property as tenants after the sale. If you do wish to move out, we will agree a suitable time period for this prior to the purchase.

How much will it cost me?
Zero. As you are contacting us direct you will not have estate agents fees to pay. We will pay all your legal costs and you will not have to pay for an up front valuation fee. This could result in a saving of £1000’s.

How does the price you offer me compare with what I could get if I marketed my property with an estate agent?
We offer a guaranteed and fast sale, this is reflected in any offer we make. The price we offer is based upon a trade value comparable to that at an auction or the true market value (ie. taking into account the fact that accepted offers are usually a good percentage below asking price), this is because we purchase at a below market value. If you were to market your property through an estate agent or at an auction it may take months or in some cases years to sell. We usually pay upto 85% of the open market value depending on a number of factors, including the type and location of the property.

Can you stop repossession or evictions?
Yes call us now on 08000 433 788, we can agree to buy your property and instruct solicitors to talk to your lenders and arrange for their loan to be paid.

I am in arrears with mortgage payments - can you still help me?
Yes, we usually can, as long as you have some equity in the property. After selling your property to us we give you the opportunity to live there as tenants if you wish. We have even been able to help people who were within hours of being evicted - so contact us now, it is never too late!

What sort of properties do you buy?
We buy all types of residential properties, including yours!

Do you buy property in any condition?
Yes we do. Any property, in any condition, will be considered. We see properties in need of work everyday. Don't worry, yours will not be the worst we have come across!

Will my neighbours find out about my situation?
No. The sale will be totally confidential, we will not put up "For Sale" or "Sold" signs.

How does the price you offer me compare with what I could get if I marketed my property with an estate agent?
We offer a guaranteed and fast sale, this is reflected in any offer we make. The price we offer is based upon a trade value comparable to that at an auction or at a discount to the true market value. If you were to market your property through an estate agent or at an auction it may take months or in some cases years to sell. We usually pay up to 85% of the open market value depending on a number of factors, including the type and location of the property. See an example illustration to gain a better understanding.

What do you mean discounts to true market value?
Estate agents have a tendency to have asking prices on properties far in excess as to what they are really worth. This is partly because people have an inflated view of the worth of their own home and partly because by giving a higher valuation they are more likely to get the business from those who are trying to sell their house. At White Castle Property Co. we calculate the true market valuation using actual comparable sales data and resources like the Land Registry. We then present this information and advice to you and it is then for you to decide on which route you prefer.

Will my estate agent mind me selling direct to you?
They won't be overjoyed - because you're saving the likely 2-3% plus VAT they would have charged in commission! You get that money instead - and it's your right to sell direct. Please note that if you have already instructed an estate agent they may still try and claim a fee. Depending on the exact terms of any contract you have signed. Generally as long as you are not sole agency this will not apply. Even if you are sole agency then you can always cancel this arrangement.

Do you offer incentives for recommendations?
Yes, if you recommend us to a friend and we buy the property in question we will give you up to £500 on completion as a thank you.
