Liverpool landlord who sold his properties in 2 weeks: “stop obsessing about 100% market value, focus on speed and certainty of sale”
By now no doubt you’ve all read the government’s civil penalty tables, which a few weeks ago hit landlords hard, showing fines of up to £35,000 for breaches under the Renters’ Rights Act 2025. The news was just the tip of the iceberg in a nationwide “crackdown” on landlords.
For one landlord in Liverpool, the current climate was enough to take action. He’d moved to Dubai and had a portfolio of 8 properties that he needed to sell, with one marked difference: unlike some landlords wanting to sell, he was keen to “prioritise certainty of sale” over waiting to get the “highest price possible.”
Of his portfolio of 8 properties, 3 were substantially underperforming post-rate rises. His strategy was simple: get his finances back on track with a partial exit, not a panic sell.
This meant he wasn’t worried about that extra £10,000 to hit full market value, he just wanted speed, certainty and to remove the pressure worrying about the timeline of the sale and whether or not they might sell. That’s when he approached us at Landlord Sales Agency.
Landlord Sales Agency offers a critical service. We specialise in fast, efficient sales that achieve strong prices without the months of uncertainty that normally accompany a traditional sale. Working with over 30,000 private active buyers, portfolio investors and cash purchasers who are ready to proceed, many sellers receive serious offers within days. In fact, our maximum average time to sell is just 28 days.
The process is straightforward, confidential and designed to protect the landlord’s financial position.
We immediately got to work on the portfolio. The first property sold for £92K vs £100K market value in just 2 weeks to a cash buyer, no survey, no searches, just cash.
Within 6 weeks we’d sold the remainder of weakest assets in his portfolio to another cash buyer and retained the stronger ones. We released capital, reduced stress and improved overall yield.
The landlord walked away extremely happy with the rest of his portfolio completely recovered and once again extremely profitable.
And he’s not alone. Every week around 80 landlords are coming to us to sell, and the savviest ones are the ones who aren’t obsessing about squeezing the last £10,000 out of a deal. They just want to sell in a way that avoids loss, is simple, and fully managed from start to finish by experts who can take the properties completely off their hands.
And that’s exactly what we’re doing.
So if you’re a landlord who wants to explore a fast and safe exit, contact us at Landlord Sales Agency for a confidential discussion.
Don’t wait another month. Let’s get the properties you want sold within a week if we can, and get you back on your feet. It really is as simple as that.
