What is vendor finance?

The buyer pays you over time — not the bank.

Instead of waiting for a buyer to secure a mortgage, the buyer pays you a deposit and then monthly instalments. You become the bank. The deal closes in weeks, not months — and you keep earning interest.

Each option routes to a specialist form. No commitment at this stage.

01
Speed

Need to sell fast — any reason

Relocation, job change, financial change of circumstance — whatever the reason, you need to sell quickly. Standard sales take months. We can find a cash buyer in weeks.

02
Speed

Inherited a property — need a clean exit

You've inherited a house or flat and need to sell it. Agents take months. We can find a buyer within weeks and close quickly — no repairs, no chain.

03
Speed

Divorce or separation — need to sell fast

The courts want the property sold. You need a quick, clean transaction so both parties can move on. No estate agents, no months of waiting.

04
Speed

Repossession looming — time is running out

The bank is circling. A mortgage sale in 6 months won't cut it. Vendor finance buyers close in weeks — you can stop the repossession before it happens.

Start assessment
05
Speed

Chain has collapsed — stuck between properties

Your buyer sold to someone else. You're paying two mortgages. We find a buyer who can move fast enough to let you complete your own purchase.

Start assessment
06
Speed

Passed at auction — still need to sell

Your property didn't meet its reserve. You're paying ongoing costs with no buyer. We have buyers who specifically look at unsold auction lots.

Start assessment
07
Speed

Moving abroad — need to close before you go

You're leaving the country and need to close the sale before you go. The traditional route takes 6–12 months. You don't have that time.

Start assessment
08
Problem

Cladding or fire safety issues (EWS1)

Your flat has a cladding or fire safety problem. Mortgage lenders won't touch it and estate agents won't list it. There are buyers who specifically look for exactly this.

Start assessment
09
Problem

Structural problems or significant defects

Movement, subsidence, cracking, damp — mortgage lenders see these as red flags. A structural engineer report helps but doesn't fix the lending problem. We have buyers who work with properties banks won't touch.

Start assessment
10
Problem

Japanese knotweed or contamination

You've got knotweed on or near the property, or contamination from previous use. Lenders require specialist reports — and then still often decline. A cash buyer won't need one.

Start assessment
11
Problem

Squatter or trespasser in the property

You've got an unauthorised occupant and the legal process to remove them is slow and costly. Selling to a cash buyer who takes the problem off your hands is often the fastest solution.

Start assessment
12
Problem

HMO or multi-let — lenders won't play

Your house in multiple occupation has multiple tenants and possibly multiple rental incomes. Standard mortgage lenders won't touch it. Vendor finance works differently.

Start assessment
13
Title

Short lease — banks won't lend on it

The lease has dropped below 50 years. No mortgage lender will touch it. But vendor finance doesn't need a bank — and the clock is ticking.

Start assessment
14
Title

Lease extension or freehold problem

Ground rent climbing, lease shortening, freeholder missing — your property is unsellable through estate agents. A direct buyer can work around it.

Start assessment
15
Title

Title defects or missing documents

Missing deeds, rights of way, covenants, easements — title issues that make the property unsellable through a standard transaction. A direct buyer can negotiate around them.

16
Homeowner

Done with being a landlord

Tenants, maintenance, regulations — you're exhausted. But you can't afford to lose the monthly income. There may be a way out that keeps the cashflow.

Start assessment
17
Homeowner

Half-finished renovation — need a buyer who can finish it

Planning permission is in place, 80% complete, but the bridging loan is eating you alive. You need a buyer with the capital to finish what you started.

Start assessment
18
Homeowner

Planning potential — but lenders won't play ball

Your property has real conversion or change-of-use potential. But banks see the complication and won't lend. You need a buyer with vision and time.

Start assessment
19
Homeowner

Selling a whole property portfolio

You have multiple properties — residential, commercial, or mixed. Selling them one by one through agents takes months and costs a fortune. One buyer who can take the lot.

Homeowner

Inherited with siblings — can't agree on what to do

You've inherited a property with co-owners who all want out. Nobody lives nearby. A clean sale and split is the cleanest solution for everyone.

Bridging loan running out — need a fast exit

Asbestos or hazardous materials in the property

Ex-local authority or ex-council property

Your property is ex-council, has a historic s.125 or s.143 disposal covenant, or sits in a designated protected area. Standard buyers and lenders struggle. We route to specialists who handle these routinely.

Residential

Empty property costing you money every month

You've found somewhere smaller but your own sale is holding everything up. A vendor finance buyer can close quickly enough to let you proceed.
