Sell Unmodernised and Problem Properties Fast with First Principle Housing

Property owners and landlords sometimes must face difficult decisions, particularly when it comes to unmodernised or problem properties. Some properties situated in prime locations or with particular potential are well worth the time and resources required to bring them up to code, increase curb appeal or undergo a complete renovation; however, this is not always the case. In cases where an unmodernised or problem property is in a state of significant disrepair, or does not have particularly appealing qualities that suggest the consideration of further investment of resources may be in order, savvy investors know that is it time to sell.

However, while you may recognise that selling is the most viable and profitable option, properties of this nature do not generally attract serious buyers when listed through estate agents and often are on the market for an extended period of time when using conventional selling methods. Fortunately, property owners have a better option available that will allow them to sell unmodernised or problem properties quickly and without hassles. First Principle Housing (FPH) specialises in buying property quickly and can exchange in as little as 24 hours after viewing your property. We will also pay up to £1000 in legal fees and offer flexible terms to fit your needs.

To determine if your property is plagued by issues that may cause difficulty when trying to sell, ask yourself the following questions:

Does your property have structural and defect problems that will take too much time and money to fix?

  • Is there fire or flood damage?
  • Is it showing evidence of subsidence?
  • Does it contain asbestos?
  • Is it in need of building reports?
  • Is it plagued by condensation, dampness, wet rot, drainage or dry rot?


Does the home have electrical and safety issues?

  • Are infestations of mold or pests present?
  • Does it have pointing issues?
  • Does the exterior need major rendering?
  • Are there problems with the roof?
  • Does the unused basement need to be tanked?
  • Are there problems with the wall ties?


Are you experiencing difficulties with tenants?

  • Do you have AST tenants who don’t want to leave?
  • Do you have squatters who insist on staying?
  • DSS tenants who can’t pay the rent?


Is the property causing you legal headaches?

  • Are you receiving Council notices?
  • Are you being bombarded with unregistered HMOs?
  • Are you inundated with dangerous structure notices?
  • Are you tired of enforcement notices?
  • Are you being harassed by previous resident’s bailiff visits?


Are there reasons why it is a difficult property?

  • Are there flats above commercial premises?
  • Is it an ex local authority property?
  • Is the property next to an all night shop or garage?
  • Is the property next to a noisy pub or nightclub?
  • Are there noisy and troublesome neighbors in the area?
  • Is it close to council estates?


Is the property poorly located?

  • Is it situated on a main road?
  • Do individuals have to back onto railways to exit the property?
  • Is the property located on a flood plain?
  • Was the property built under dangerous power lines?
  • Is the property located under noisy airport flight paths?
