Sell around the asbestos. No remediation required. — in Newcastle.
Your property contains asbestos, RAAC concrete, or other hazardous materials. Most buyers and lenders will require a specialist survey and remediation before completion. We have buyers who accept the hazard and price the remediation themselves. Specifically for Newcastle and the surrounding Tyne and Wear area.
How it works in Newcastle
- You tell us the hazard (asbestos, RAAC, contaminated land, etc.) and any survey reports.
- We match to hazard-accepting buyers who underwrite the remediation cost.
- Completion in 6-10 weeks. The buyer arranges remediation post-purchase.
What we'll need from you
- The full address
- The specific hazard and any survey reports
- Whether the hazard is in the structure or removable
What we sidestep (and the standard alternatives)
- Spending £5,000-15,000 on a remediation to satisfy a buyer

- Demolition-value offers that ignore the underlying land value
