Sell
Cash Buyer Network
A faster, more private selling route for eligible properties. Direct purchase may be possible, or we can introduce verified cash buyers where that is the stronger route.
The short answer
If you need to sell your house fast for cash, Rowe & Hart may buy suitable properties directly or introduce verified cash buyers whose funds we have checked. Completion can be targeted in as little as 7 days for eligible, legally ready properties, and a cash price usually sits below full market value. We show you both figures first.
Speed, with the trade explained
When certainty matters more than open-market exposure
A cash-buyer route can be useful when a seller needs discretion, fewer viewings or a shorter path to completion. Depending on the property, that means a direct purchase discussion with a clear written offer, or an introduction to a verified cash buyer or investor whose funds we have already checked.
It is not the right answer for every home. The price may be lower than a full open-market campaign, because the buyer is taking on speed, condition and transaction risk. We keep that trade clear from the start: if traditional sale, Silent Market or auction would serve you better, we will say so.

How it works
A fast route still needs a proper process
01
Tell us the situation
Share the address, ownership position, condition, timeline and whether the property is vacant, tenanted or in need of work.
02
We assess the route
We review whether a direct cash purchase, investor introduction, auction or traditional sale is the right fit.
03
Written terms
Any offer or buyer introduction is set out clearly, including price, target timeline and the checks needed before exchange.
04
Legal checks and completion
Where the title, seller paperwork and solicitors are ready, completion can be targeted quickly. Seven days is possible only for suitable, legally ready cases.
Situations this can suit
- Inherited or probate properties where a private sale is preferred.
- Tenanted homes or buy-to-let stock suited to investor buyers.
- Flats with short leases that mortgage lenders decline.
- Properties needing refurbishment, clearance or modernisation.
- Sellers facing a time-sensitive move, chain break or deadline.
- Owners who want fewer viewings and a more discreet process.
Important
No blanket promise
We will not tell every seller that a 7-day completion is available. Any fast sale is subject to valuation, survey, legal title, buyer funding and due diligence, and your own circumstances: solicitors, searches, lender restrictions, ID checks and how quickly documents can be provided all set the real pace.
The promise we can make is clearer: you will get an honest route recommendation and, where a cash-buyer path is suitable, the timeline and trade-offs will be set out before you commit.
Seller protection
The questions you should ask any cash buyer
This market has earned its scepticism. These are the standards we hold ourselves to, and the ones you should demand from anyone else too.
Proof of funds, on request
Any buyer we introduce has already evidenced their funds to us, and you are entitled to see proof before you commit to anything. A genuine cash buyer never minds being asked.
No fee to find out
The review is free, and there is no charge for receiving an offer or for walking away from one. If you do instruct us, fees are agreed in writing first and nothing is added later.
If an offer changes, you see why
An offer should only change for things the review could not see: title defects, survey findings, or lease and tenancy details that surface in legal checks. If that happens, you get the reasons and the evidence in writing, and you remain free to walk away.
Tenants do not have to leave for a sale to happen
Tenanted properties can sell to investor buyers with the tenants staying in place and the tenancy continuing under the new owner. If that is your situation, we will explain how the tenancy affects price and timeline before you decide anything.
Common questions
Can Rowe & Hart buy my property for cash?
In some cases we may discuss a direct cash purchase. In others, the better route is an introduction to a verified cash buyer, investor sale, auction or a traditional open-market sale. We will tell you which route appears realistic for your property.
Can you complete within 7 days?
A very fast completion can be possible for eligible properties where title, ownership, ID checks, solicitor readiness and seller paperwork are all in place. We do not promise a 7-day completion for every property.
Will a cash offer be the highest price?
Usually not. A cash-buyer route prioritises speed, privacy and certainty. If maximum price is the priority and time allows, a traditional or private-market sale may be better.
Is there any pressure to accept?
No. We will set out the options clearly so you can compare speed, certainty and likely price before deciding.
Can I sell with tenants still in the property?
Often, yes. Investor buyers frequently prefer a property with tenants in place and the rent already flowing, and the tenancy continues under the new owner. Tenants do not automatically need to leave for a sale to happen. The tenancy details will affect price and timeline, and we will be straight about how.
What can change a cash offer after it is made?
Only things the initial review could not see: title defects, survey findings, or lease and tenancy details that come to light during legal checks. If an offer has to change, you receive the reasons and the evidence in writing, and you are free to walk away at any point before exchange.

Tell us your property, your timeline and what matters most. We will explain whether a cash-buyer route is realistic or whether another selling route would serve you better.
