"I was promised by estate agents that my property should sell quickly,” says one of our clients who sold her home in London’s SE19 through MPG Investments. “I even decided to market it cheaper than they suggested as I really needed to move quickly. All the agents let me down and I was at my wits end. I found MPG, the property buying company on the Internet and they were a pleasure to deal with from day one. They did everything the said they would and completed on my sale with 10 days flat."
We have dealt with countless numbers of clients who tell a similar story. The bottom line is that selling your house through the conventional channels offers no guarantees whatsoever. The most you can do is put your house on the market and hope for the best – like our client in SE19, even with endless viewings and a competitive value on the house you are never certain of when or even if you will sell your house.
Many people in that situation complain of feeling like they’re living in limbo, waiting for their sale to get on with the rest of their lives. By offering a quick sale for a guaranteed cash sum, a property buying company can do just that; you could be getting on with your life in a week’s time with cash at your disposal to buy your dream home - just like Mr. Savino from Chelmsford.
"My wife found her dream home,” he says. “But our buyer pulled out. I needed to sell quickly and a friend recommended the property buying specialist, MPG. They came to my rescue and within days we agreed a price and they bought my house in 6 days flat. We are now in our dream home."
Another situation that is by no means uncommon is when you’ve found a buyer and at the last minute they pull out, leaving you high and dry and with potentially several more months to wait for another buyer.
"After losing our second buyer due to negative subsidence reports in their surveys we thought we could never sell,” says our Mrs Maher of Pinner. “A friend recommended MPG Investments, the house buying company, and they took a very professional view. We are now in our new home and I can highly recommend MPG Investments to anyone that can't sell their home."
In short the security offered by having a guaranteed written offer from a property buying company often outweighs the perceived benefits of using an estate agent.
