“We buy any house”: what the claim really means

Buyers who advertise “we buy any house” usually mean they will make an offer on almost anything. It does not mean a fair price, and it does not mean a quick sale for every property. Here is the honest version for sellers who need out, not a fantasy valuation.

Why sellers of “any house” need speed

Property types these buyers advertise for

  • Houses, flats, bungalows and maisonettes
  • Probate / inherited homes
  • Tenanted BTLs and small portfolios
  • Fire, flood or disrepair cases
  • Short lease / cash-buyers-only listings
  • Homes stuck after a collapsed chain

What affects the offer and the checks to make

  • Required works and resale risk
  • How quickly you need to complete
  • Local demand for that property type
  • Legal or lease complications
  • Occupancy and access for inspection
  • Check: company details, redress scheme membership, who pays legal fees, no option or lock-in agreement

If the house is the problem, or life is

Selling as-is suits people who can’t (or won’t) renovate their way out, at a price.
