Sell, let or hand it over.
Sell It Quietly
Kept off the portals: the property goes on our register and is introduced to investors on our list, with no fee to you. How a quiet sale works →
Let It to Us
Swap the uncertainty for a fixed figure. A company let with us as the lessee, paid monthly, occupied or not. How a company let works →
We Run It
Hand over the day-to-day and keep the property. Management from 20% of booking revenue. How management works →

Before the board goes up
An estate agent is the right route when the highest price is what matters most. When privacy, speed or certainty matter more, an off-market route is worth a conversation first and it costs nothing to have. Probate, a relocation, a portfolio being wound down, a building that needs work: the reasons owners come to us before an agent are usually about time, privacy or condition rather than price.
Lancaster
What happens on a quiet sale
For an owner who needs certainty more than the last pound of value, a quiet sale is the route. Investors on our list make any offer below open market value and nothing is payable by the seller.
Lancaster
Who each route is for
Executors clearing an estate often value certainty over the last pound of price, which points to the quiet sale. Landlords tired of voids and repairs often prefer a company let, where one fixed sum replaces the uncertainty.
Lancaster
Letting it to us instead
Keeping the property and handing over the day-to-day is often a better answer than a sale. Management from 20% of booking revenue leaves the asset and the upside with you. One fixed payment or a share of the income: the two letting routes trade certainty against upside and each can be compared on paper before you choose.

When it is more than a house
Where a portfolio includes tenanted homes, those suit the quiet-sale route as they are. Vacant homes can go on a company let or under management. Mixed portfolios of houses, flats and small blocks are common. Each property is looked at on its own terms and the routes can differ across the list.
Lancaster
If you are the agent
Letting agents whose landlords want out of the long-let market can offer management or a company let as an alternative to selling. The landlord stays the agent's client throughout.
Lancaster
Documents that help
Planning and use can matter, especially for a building that has been converted. Any condition that restricts how the homes may be occupied needs to be known early.
