What a listing gives away
Tenants often hear about a sale from the listing. A quiet route lets you plan the conversation with them first, or register the property as it is with the tenancy in place. 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.
Oxford
Selling without a listing
The trade on a quiet sale is simple: a price below open market value in exchange for speed, privacy and certainty. Investors on our list make any offer; the buyer pays our fee and you will know it in advance.
Oxford
Matching the route to the owner
Landlords leaving the long-let market have two good options before selling: management, which keeps the upside and a company let, which fixes the income. Selling quietly is the third, for when keeping the property is not the aim.
Oxford
A fixed sum or full management
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. A company let replaces tenants, voids and arrears with a single lessee and a single payment date. The sum is fixed for the term and paid whether or not anyone is staying.
Oxford
More than one property
Portfolio owners rarely use one route for every property. The strongest homes may stay under management, some may be let to us and the rest registered for a quiet sale. A block of flats can go on one company let agreement across the building, under full management unit by unit, or onto the off-market register as a whole. The apartment blocks page sets out how each works.

For estate and letting agents
Estate and letting agents can introduce properties from anywhere in England and Wales and every introduction goes through the agent who made it.
Oxford
What we will ask for
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.
Oxford
How to start
The first conversation is about what you want to happen. The route comes second and the terms third, in writing.
