How It Works

We buy your home from you at a discount to its full value.

This enables us to give you a certain, stress-free sale, get it done on your timescales, and guarantee you expert support throughout.

Cost savings

Although you get a higher headline price when you sell with a local estate agent, you’ll make significant cost savings in a sale to Yes Homebuyers.

These  cost savings help to offset the lower price.

By the time you’ve waited months for a buyer, accepted a lower offer than you wanted, paid estate agent fees and solicitors fees, and made repairs on your home (or even dropped the price after the survey), our guaranteed offer could be much better value than you might think.

Example offer comparison

This table gives a handy illustration of how our offer compares to a sale on the open market, based on a property worth £150,000.

As soon as you accept our offer we’ll send a non-refundable £1,000 deposit straight over to your solicitor.

If we were to change the offer or move the goal posts in any way, the £1,000 is released to you and it’s yours.

Guarantee and £1,000 deposit

Why would we give you a guarantee, and pay you a £1,000 deposit that we’d lose if we changed the price?

Because what we offer is what we pay.

We wouldn’t put £1,000 on the line if our offer wasn’t what we intended paying, or if we were going to mess you around.

The guarantee is here for you, it keeps you in control, and gives you complete peace of mind.

Ts & Cs

The only rare exception is where serious and unanticipated results come up on the survey that make the property unmortgageable – such as subsidence for example.

In most cases if your home has an issue like this, you’ll already know. Just make sure you disclose any potential issues to us when we value your home.

When you sell to Yes Homebuyers you get a swift, certain and convenient house sale, and save on many of the costs associated with a traditional sale.

The only drawback is that we buy your home at a discount to its full value.

We step into your shoes as the new seller

Once we’ve bought your home, we effectively step into your shoes as the new seller.

So, to make our money, we now deal with the long, complicated, stressful and drawn-out sale you were hoping to avoid!

By going through the lengthy process and selling the house for its full value, the company makes a profit.
