Sell with title issues. No indemnity-only buyers. — in London.
Missing deeds, rights of way, covenants, easements, boundary disputes, chancel repair liability, unregistered land. High-street buyers and mortgage lenders will flag every defect and require indemnity insurance. We have buyers who specialise in defective title and price it in themselves. Specifically for London and the surrounding Greater London area.
How it works in London
- You tell us the title defect (or share the lawyer's report if you have one).
- We match to title-defect buyers who underwrite the issue themselves.
- Completion in 8-12 weeks. Indemnity insurance is a buy-side concern.
What we'll need from you
- The full address
- Description of the title defect (or the lawyer's report)
- Whether indemnity insurance has been quoted
What we sidestep (and the standard alternatives)
- Spending £2,000 on a title investigation that won't unlock a high-street mortgage
- A 6-month wait for a deed reconstitution
- An estate agent who'll hide the defect and trigger buyer claims later
