In this article, we a take number of cases and clearly outline how you would fair at an estate agent compared to private property sales using MPG as your property investor.

I need to sell fast

Estate Agent – On average six months to complete a house sale and often longer, you could be left waiting in a chain for up to a year.

MPG Private Sale – Completions in 7 days or less, with the capital in your bank and ready to work for you.

I am in danger of repossession

Estate Agent – Unlikely to look favourably on your situation, may add pressure to facilitate a cheaper sale for a buyer’s benefit. Slow process will not stave off creditors.

MPG Private Sale – An instant cash sale avoiding repossession, this could also leave you with clear credit record. And with MPG there are NO FEES – selling to us won’t make a difficult situation even worse.

I have been in a property chain for 8 months

Estate Agent – Hands are tied. Properties could be in the hands of several agents. Hence, 1 in 3 property chains fail. You will still be liable for solicitor’s fees etc. every time it happens.

MPG Private Sale – With our private house sales you will become an instant cash buyer or use our ‘chain-break’ service where MPG will purchase the ‘missing link’ for you.

I have subsidence issues

Estate Agent – Survey reports will seriously reduce the market value of your home, potential buyers will be made aware and a likely sale will not easily be facilitated as mortgage companies will not lend on subsidence affected properties.

MPG Private Sale – No need for approval from mortgage companies as MPG are a cash buyer so you receive a guaranteed offer.

I wish to sell but I have tenants in my property

Estate Agent – Property should be vacated on purchase to make the premises marketable and saleable; potential buyers will be unwilling to accept tenants and will wish to move directly into the property.

MPG Private Sale – MPG sale and rent back options means a guaranteed cash offer for your property with only one viewing. We then take over the tenancy.

I have had a section 20 notice served on my property

Estate Agent – Impending bills and the prospect of building works and scaffolding causing major disruption when they move in will simply put off potential property buyers.

MPG Private Sale – MPG deliver an authentic solution as specialist property investors in the residential sector. In nearly all cases we are able to provide you with guaranteed cash offer.

Taking a closer look at these scenarios you can see how MPG’s flexibility and service can deliver effective private property sales in a variety of circumstances. The estate agent route offers narrower scope and any potential pitfalls could easily render your property unsaleable.

It pays to consider all your options - contact MPG and see which solution is right for you.
