Selling Your Property Online
Online house sales have sky-rocketed in popularity, but what are the key things you need to know when you want to sell your home online?
We want to arm the property market with the facts that they need to make their own informed decision about what is involved when you are selling a property online.
We will attempt to dispel any disinformation around the subject, as well as present the case in favour for selling your home through the internet and why it is all round better for you and for buyers.
Selling your house online is one of the most straight forward ways you can sell a property, and in todays digital age it is one of the best ways to reach a wider audience and get a fast property sale.
Home Buyers Are Online
Most people are aware that the majority of people looking to buy a property start their search online, and home owners can even find the value of their home on the internet.
It gives buyers a general idea of the current state of the market, the popularity of that area, how competitive it is, and what they are getting for their money.
Almost all professional estate agents also advertise online, so buyers can find properties that they are interested in and get in touch with estate agents from there.
You may also be surprised to learn that property agents themselves use the internet to find potential properties that are up for private sale, and developers will source houses that need work from online sources before doing them up and then selling them on.
The interconnectivity of the web makes it so much easier for buyers and sellers alike, and the industry is increasingly moving towards an online driven marketplace.

Is It Cheaper To Sell My House Online?
This question gets asked a lot, as homeowners are concerned that they could be wasting money unnecessarily on estate agent’s fees.
Objectively, it is almost always cheaper to sell your home online and avoid all those added fees and costs that estate agents take in order to provide their service.
However, it is important to remember that estate agents will always do their best to achieve the maximum sale price for your home, since their commission is usually based on a percentage.
So while an online agent such as ourselves doesn’t take any fees when we buy your home, we tend to pay a price that is slightly less than the final price that a estate agent would pay.
However, when you factor in the element of time into the equation, this difference generally becomes less significant to home owners.
We buy any home that is out there, regardless of condition or what area your property is in, which is ideal if you have had your property on the market for a while and it hasn’t sold.
Let’s Talk About Home Sale Fees
A typical estate agent will charge anywhere from 0.75% – 1.5% and that is not inclusive of VAT.
Remember, a home sale is a large value transaction, so while this figure may not seem like much, we have to look at it in context to get a proper idea of what this does to the amount you receive when you sell your home.
This comparison table outlines the typical estate agent fees in relation to some representative house prices:
Property Value | Estate Agent Fee at 0.75% + VAT | Estate Agent Fee at 1.5% + VAT |
---|---|---|
£250,000 | £2,250 | £4,500 |
£500,000 | £4,500 | £9,000 |
£1,000,000 | £9,000 | £18,000 |
As you can see, the fees taken by the average estate agent can really eat into your final sale value, and this is before you factor in legal fees and other deductions that may have to be applied.
With Home Sales Fast, there are no additional fees on top of the amount that you are offered.
We cover all of the legal fees, factoring them into the equation when we generate your home sale offer.
We think that this is the best way to keep it simple for our sellers, and it minimises the confusion felt when you have a long list of fees applied to the sale of your home.

After being messed about by several estate agents, we got in touch with Conar at Home Sales Fast by recommendation of a friend. The final valuation was good enough for us and we agreed a hand-over date three weeks later. Great service from great people.Mrs Turner, Guildford
The flat I had in Fort William was falling into disrepair and I was starting to worry that I couldn’t afford to do the work and with winter on the way it would get even worse. Danny advised me that they would purchase it no matter the condition. Sale was completed within 2 weeks. Nice to have someone do what they promise. ThanksMr Spencer, Cambuslang
I had spoken to a number of cash buy companies and they all promised a certain figure and then said it would be less at the last minute. When I spoke to Home Sales Fast they gave me a figure and this is exactly what I received. The sale was completed within 3 weeks and they even paid my legal fees. Couldn’t be happier.Miss Gault, Strathaven
We genuinely couldn’t speak highly enough of Home Sales Fast. They helped us sell our home so quickly. We’d had problems attracting buyers for some time and we were starting to lose hope. Contacted Home Sales Fast and made the sale the day after, couldn’t believe it. Thanks again guys!The McIntyre Family, Dundee
I spoke to Conar at Home Sales Fast, he immediately put my mind at rest during a stressful time. The offer was actually more than I was expecting and my lawyers fees were also paid. No hassles from start to finish. I would highly recommend them.Robin, Glasgow
We had our property on with a local agent for months and it sold and fell through twice. With out purchase looking like it would collapse we got in touch with a few cash buy companies to see what our options would be. Most companies we felt were trying to take advantage of our difficult situation, but Conar we felt was honest and transparent from start to finish. All went well and we are now settled into our new home.Colin, East Kilbride
The recent global events meant that we needed to downsize due to both my partner and I losing our jobs. The team at Home Sales Fast were very understanding and were able to speed the process along especially for us. The whole process was completed in just over a week and meant that we could put a down a deposit on our new home. The help and support we received throughout the process was outstanding, would definitely recommend.The Hughes, Leeds
We need a fast sale of our flat in Preston and that is exactly what we got. We were sceptical at first, but Daniel and the team were very good at answering our questions and delivered exactly what was promised.Tony, Preston
My mother’s house had been on the market for almost 2 years and we were starting to lose hope. Someone we know recommended Home Sales Fast so we decided to give it a shot. Right from the get go they were brilliant and ended up making us an offer that was close to the one that the estate agents said it would most likely go for.Linda, Nottingham
The sale of my mothers home after she had passed away was an emotional time. Daniel was kind and considerate throughout the sale and kept us fully in the loop. We would be happy to use them again and recommend them to friends and family.Mr & Mrs Thomson, Castle Douglas
Such a quick turnaround from Home Sales Fast, I was so pleased. Saved me so much hassle and didn’t need to worry about trying to sell the house myself online or use an estate agent. Was a really smooth experience and had the full agreed amount in my bank account within a week.Brian Campbell, Aberdeen
