Sell despite the knotweed. — in Bradford.
You've got Japanese knotweed on or near the property. The TA6 form requires you to disclose it. Mortgage lenders require a specialist treatment plan (and often decline anyway). We have buyers who accept knotweed risk and price it in themselves. Specifically for Bradford and the surrounding West Yorkshire area.
How it works in Bradford
- You tell us the knotweed's location and treatment history (if any).
- We match to buyers experienced with knotweed-impacted properties.
- Completion in 6-8 weeks. No lender involvement on the buy side.
What we'll need from you
- The full address
- The knotweed's location (boundary, in-garden, neighbour's land, structural)
- Whether a treatment plan is in place
What we sidestep (and the standard alternatives)
- A £2,500 specialist treatment plan to satisfy a buyer who'll then re-negotiate
- Mortgage applicants who'll fail at the TA6 stage
- Demolition-value offers that ignore the underlying land value
