Cash House Buyers
What are cash house buying companies?
The clue is in the name. Cash house buying companies are businesses (or individuals) who buy houses for 100% cash without the need for bank or mortgage financing. Because they have the funds available to move quickly, cash house buying companies can usually buy houses, flats or even commercial properties much faster than traditional methods of selling property. Zapperty aims to provide an initial offer within 60 minutes of your enquiry and close the deal within one week. That’s initial enquiry to money in your bank account in only 7 days.
Zapperty: a partner you can trust
Not all cash house buying companies are created equal. While most are legitimate, some are unregulated risk-takers who operate at the margins of the financial services industry and often use dubious methods to buy homes for cash.
When you sell to Zapperty you know you’re selling to an established and trustworthy company that’s regulated by The Property Ombudsman and who are a member of. The National Association of Property Buyers. We always work with the seller to provide a fair price and a fast response with no hidden pitfalls. Ultimately, we believe honesty and transparency are the most important factors in any property transaction.
Why use a cash house buying company?
Using a cash house buying company will almost certainly be a faster way to sell you property than any other method. Getting the cash quickly can allow you to capitalise on an opportunity that won’t wait, (such as buying another property), or resolve a difficult situation smoothly and easily (such as selling a property because of a divorce). Regulated cash house buying companies are a legitimate and necessary real estate alternative – because moving fast can often be the best solution in a property transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cash House Buyers
How much will I get for my house when selling to a cash house buyer?
Zapperty typically offers up to 85% of the market value of your property. This reflects the speed with which the seller wants to sell and how fast we can buy.
Why don’t cash house buyers pay full market value?
Because they are not charging any fees and they are buying quickly with cash, cash house buyers must generate a margin between what they pay for your property and what they can sell it for via their industry networks. This is how cash house buyers cover their costs and make a modest profit. Bear in mind that even though you sold your property to Zapperty in one week, we may have to wait several months to find a new buyer. This produces a cost that we must recover through the difference between what we buy for and what we sell for.
Can I sell my house to a cash buyer if it’s already on the market?
Yes. We can buy homes that are currently being marketed, although we cannot cover costs or commissions to any estate agents or solicitors you may have hired. The seller is responsible for those type of costs.
Is cash house buying a scam?
No, Cash house buying is a legitimate and necessary real estate alternative. Cash house buyers provide a service that cannot be gained from other, traditional real estate selling businesses.
Are cash house buying companies regulated?
Most are, but some are not. Sellers should only work with regulated cash house buying companies. Zapperty are fully regulated by The Property Ombudsman and we are a member of. The National Association of Property Buyers.
