We're investors, not agents. That changes everything.
SilverCroft Property is a private investment company buying residential property across England and Wales to build our own long-term portfolio.
In most house sales, somebody stands between you and the money.
Every one of them is a person to satisfy, a fee to pay, or a delay to absorb. Here is who usually sits in the middle.
The estate agent
Introduces a buyer, arranges the viewings and negotiates on your behalf. Then takes a percentage of your sale price when it completes.
Takes 1–2% plus VAT
The mortgage broker
Arranges finance for the person buying your house. Their lender’s valuation, criteria and timetable all become your problem.
Adds weeks of risk
The sourcing company
Finds your property, then sells your details on to whichever investor will pay the most for them. You never meet the actual buyer.
Sells your details on
We are the buyer.
When we make you an offer, we are buying the property ourselves, with our own funds, to keep. Nobody behind us to consult, no investor to convince, and no lead passed to a third party you have never spoken to.
- A decision in a day, because we are the ones making it
- A completion date you choose, not one we impose
- No listing to win, so no reason to inflate a valuation
- Your details stay with us, always
“If we can’t justify a figure to you in writing, we shouldn’t be offering it.”
How we price, every time
Four things we hold ourselves to
We explain the number
Every offer comes with its reasoning attached: the comparable sales, the condition allowance, the costs we absorb, our margin. If we cannot justify a figure to you in writing, we should not be offering it.
We do not chip the price
Agreeing a figure and then reducing it once you are too committed to walk away is the practice that has damaged this industry’s reputation. Disclose everything at the outset and our number will not move.
We do not pressure anyone
No countdown timers, no “this offer expires Friday”, no repeat calls after you have said no. You will get our figure, and then you will get left alone to think about it for as long as you need.
We say when we are wrong for you
If your house would do better on the open market, we will tell you on the first call rather than the fourth. A sale that should not have happened is not good business for anyone.
Selling a rental? We're a natural fit.
Because we are buying for our own portfolio rather than to refurbish and flip, a tenanted property is not a problem for us; it is often exactly what we are looking for.
Selling a let property on the open market usually means serving notice, waiting out the notice period, losing the rent, and then marketing an empty flat that costs you money every week it sits there. Sell to us and the tenancy can simply continue. No void period, no notices, no disruption for your tenant, and no gap in your income until completion.
We will look at single properties or whole portfolios, houses in multiple occupation, and tenancies of most kinds including older regulated ones. If you are exiting because of Section 24, the EPC requirements, or simply because it has stopped being worth the work, we understand the reasoning, and we can move at the speed you need.
Two people, both reachable
You will not be passed around a call centre or handed to a case manager. You will speak to one of us, and that is who you will deal with through to completion.
Bobby
I have spent more than 25 years buying property and building portfolios, and most of that time has been spent on two things: working out what a house is genuinely worth, and negotiating honestly around that figure.
What it means for you is a straight answer quickly. I can usually tell you within a day whether we are the right buyer for your property, and I will say so just as plainly when we are not.
Mukesh
A quarter of a century of hands-on buying has taught me to see value in the houses other buyers walk away from: dated, tenanted, empty for years, or needing more work than most people want to take on.
So if your property has stalled on the open market, or you are a landlord selling up with tenants still in place, that is the ground I know best.
Check us out before you talk to us
You should verify any company offering to buy your house. Here is everything you need to do that.
How to check a cash buyer, any cash buyer
We would rather you did this with us than skipped it with someone else. Whoever you are speaking to:
- Look up the company number on the Companies House register and check it is active
- Ask for proof of funds in writing before you agree anything
- Never pay an upfront fee to anyone offering to buy your house
- Insist on your own independent solicitor, never one chosen for you by the buyer
- Be wary of any offer that arrives with a deadline attached to it
Start with a conversation.
Ask us anything you like, including whether selling to us is the right move at all.
