Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on selling in City centre: steady sales, so price from the evidence

250 sales since December 2025 make City centre a steady market, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.

To judge an offer, detached homes typically sold for £350,000 against £156,000 for flats, which explains a spread of £129,700 to £398,900, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; roughly 30 sales a month is enough for buyers to compare, so evidence beats optimism.

Compare options

With a steady flow of sales, you can sell the usual way if you have time, and keep a cash route in mind if you do not; a rough guide, not a quote: 70–85% of a typical £220,000 home is about £154,000 to £187,000, so ask how any offer compares with homes that sold nearby.

Missing paperwork slows many sales, so pull together a current energy performance certificate (EPC); a clear list of what the sale includes (fixtures and fittings); and the title documents now, and ask your conveyancer what else will be wanted.

Hearing an offer costs nothing: ask a cash buyer to contact you, then measure it against the sold prices on this page.

Questions, answered

Common questions

Is a Cash Offer Check free?
Yes. Asking a cash buyer to contact you is free to you and there’s no obligation. You only go ahead if an offer is right for you.
What would a cash buyer pay for my house?
Cash buyers usually offer below open-market value, because they take on the cost and risk of a quick sale. Compare any offer with real sold prices for your postcode.
How do I ask a cash buyer to contact me?
Enter your postcode and a few details about the property and your situation. With your consent, we send them to one independent buyer, who contacts you directly.
Do you buy my house yourselves?
No. Your Property Check is not the buyer. We send your enquiry to an independent property-buying business, which contacts you directly. We do not make offers or negotiate sales.
Are there any fees?
Requesting contact is free to you. We may receive a fee from the buyer if a purchase completes. Ask the buyer to confirm any fees, and who pays legal costs, in writing. There’s no contract until you agree one.
