London · every borough inside the M25

London house buyers — with a completion date you choose.

Short leases, EWS1 stand-offs, chains four links deep and service charges that scare buyers off — London has more ways for a sale to stall than anywhere in Britain. We buy without a mortgage, so most of them stop mattering.

What we buy in London

Tap each number — the local stock we buy, and why some of it is exactly what mainstream buyers make hard work of.

1Flats with lease and cladding baggage

London’s flats carry London’s paperwork: short leases heading under 80 years, EWS1 forms that never arrive, service charges buyers baulk at. A cash purchase doesn’t need a lender satisfied — the problem gets priced honestly in writing instead of killing the sale.

2Period terraces and townhouses

From Victorian terraces in Walthamstow to Georgian stock south of the river — often sound houses stuck behind broken chains. Our buyer-pulled-out playbook gives your own purchase a written date to stand on.

3Ex-council and Right to Buy

Ex-local-authority flats and houses across every borough — some lenders fuss over deck access and large panel systems. We don’t borrow, so we don’t fuss; we price and proceed.

4Landlords calling it a day

Tenanted flats and HMOs, low-EPC rentals, portfolios of two or ten — we buy with tenants in place, and the rent stays yours to completion.

What the ladder means for your number

Type roughly what the house is worth and see what each completion date typically pays. It runs on this page only — nothing is stored, nothing is sent anywhere.

The same honest deal, wherever the house is

Everything on this site applies in London unchanged: you choose the completion date, the price sits on a public ladder — 65% to 82% of market value depending on that date, the figure locks when you accept, and if we complete late we pay you £500 a day, capped and subject to contract. A local agent remains the right answer when the house is sound and you have time — and auction can genuinely win for unusual stock. We’ll say either on the phone if it’s true for your street.

Coverage: Every London borough, inside the M25 — north, south, east and west of the river alike. Flats, houses, ex-council, tenanted, leasehold or freehold. If you’re unsure, ask: the honest answer costs ten minutes.

The questions London sellers ask

Do you buy across the whole of London?

Yes — all 32 boroughs and the City, both sides of the river, from Zone 1 flats to M25-edge semis. Flats are most of what London asks us to buy, and flats are stock we know well.

Do you buy flats with cladding or EWS1 problems?

We buy without a mortgage, so there’s no lender demanding an EWS1 before exchange. The building’s status still affects what the flat is worth — we’ll show you exactly how in the written offer, and you decide with the facts in front of you.

How fast can you buy in London?

Our typical purchase completes in 24 days — and the date can equally sit months out. Once agreed it’s contractual, with £500 a day owed to you if we’re late (capped, subject to contract).

Why are London prices falling when everywhere else is rising?

The official index showed London down 2.5% in the year to June 2026 while every other English region rose. We don’t pretend to know next year — we price on sold evidence from your street today, in writing, and you take it to anyone you like.
