Sell a Tenanted Property
Want to sell a tenanted property fast? We’re here to help.
Selling a property with tenants isn’t always easy. There can be a variety of challenges, from navigating complex tenancy laws to dealing with tenant objections and viewing schedules. The hurdles can be daunting when selling a tenanted property, but with Sell House Fast, you can sell property quickly, on your schedule and with minimal hassle.
This is no mean feat when you consider the complexities. There are a huge amount of hoops to jump through and regulations to stick to. As all landlords will be all too aware — and as just one example — Section 24 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 states that the lease will only automatically expire at the fixed term if the landlord or the tenant terminates the lease by serving notice under the Act. Which is not always straightforward.
Regulations (like EWS1, or the lack of it) can be a real headache. EWS1 confirms that your building has passed a fire safety check and helps valuers assess the property’s worth, factoring in any needed repairs. If you’re selling a tenanted property, sorting this out can be a bit of a process. Plus, with property regulations changing all the time, keeping up to date is essential.
On top of that, tenants can refuse viewings, sublet without permission, or become difficult if relations have soured – sometimes even acting on poor legal advice. It’s not always straightforward.
Sitting tenants can also resist leaving altogether, and this could become even trickier with new laws banning Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions. The latest King’s Speech confirmed plans for stronger tenant protections, making it even more important to navigate these issues carefully.
Luckily, we specialise in buying properties with tenants in place, offering a fast, stress-free solution tailored to your needs. With years of experience, we understand the unique challenges of selling a tenanted property – and we’re here to help you overcome them.
Selling with tenants can feel overwhelming. Even if your property meets the Decent Homes Standard, issues like pet damage, cladding problems, uncooperative tenants, or the costs of upkeep can make it seem impossible.
That’s where we come in. At Sell House Fast, we buy any house, in any condition, for cash – ensuring a quick, hassle-free sale without the worry of financing falling through or long negotiations.
