Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on selling in City centre (within the walls): a quiet market, so take your time

City centre (within the walls) has seen just 250 sales since November 2024, which is too few for firm conclusions, so we would lean on individual sold homes rather than any average.

When you weigh an offer, most City centre (within the walls) sales sit between £153,350 and £906,500, which makes £265,000 a blunt instrument, so benchmark against near-identical homes, not the headline; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check.

Compare options

A slow market is where cash buyers are most useful to a seller in a hurry, and where it pays to know the sold prices before you listen to one; a rough guide, not a quote: 70–85% of a typical £265,000 home is about £186,000 to £225,000, so ask how any offer compares with homes that sold nearby.

Ahead of any viewing or offer, gather the lease details (length and the ground rent and service charge records); a clear list of what the sale includes (fixtures and fittings); and an up-to-date EPC; your conveyancer can add anything specific to your home.

Nothing is lost by asking: a cash buyer contacts you, you listen, and you compare what you hear with a slower, open-market sale.

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.
