Sell the leasehold mess. Skip the freeholder. — in Exeter.
Ground rent climbing, lease shortening, freeholder missing or uncooperative, service charge disputes, management company problems. High-street buyers won't touch it. We have buyers experienced in problematic leaseholds. Specifically for Exeter and the surrounding Devon area.
How it works in Exeter
- You tell us the issue (ground rent, freeholder behaviour, service charge dispute, etc.).
- We match to buyers who underwrite the leasehold problem themselves.
- Completion in 6-10 weeks. The buyer deals with the freeholder post-purchase.
What we'll need from you
- The full address
- The specific issue (ground rent, freeholder, service charge)
- The current lease length
What we sidestep (and the standard alternatives)
- Spending £5,000-15,000 on a freeholder negotiation to satisfy a buyer
- A 2-year wait for a tribunal decision
- Mortgage buyers who'll fail at the leasehold enquiry stage
