Our property repossession solution

We help UK homeowners in mortgage arrears sell their property swiftly and with minimal stress. Our goal is fully aligned with yours – sell before the bank steps in. What’s more, unlike other quick sale companies, we guarantee we won’t lower our final offer. Whether you’re weeks or even days away from repossession, we can still coordinate with your mortgage lender to confirm we’re buying your property. And with our network of the UK’s fastest cash buyers, you won’t be kept waiting. Here’s how our property repossession solution works:

Step 1

Get in touch

Complete our form or contact us at 0204 578 2156. We’ll ask you to share some key details about the property which we’ll send to our valuation team.

We guarantee we’ll offer on any property in any condition.

Step 2

Get a free cash offer

We’ll share a free, no-obligation offer-in-principle within 24 hours. Typically, this is 20% under market value. (Beware cash buyers that offer higher, as their offers are often too good to be true.) If you accept, we’ll visit the property to assess its condition and location before sharing our fair and final offer. (Watch out for quick sale companies that use surveyor reports to drastically lower their final offers.)

We guarantee we will not slash or lower our final offer.

Step 3

Avoid property repossession

We cover all solicitor fees. If requested, we can help you choose an SRA-accredited solicitor – one who is an expert at navigating the legal requirements of selling property before repossession. We’ll work alongside your solicitor to coordinate with your mortgage lender and ensure you sell before repossession.

You don’t have to worry about legal costs or paperwork.

Step 4

Complete at your pace

When it comes to selling a house before repossession, we know our client’s topmost priority is often speed. Which is why we can exchange and complete when you’re ready. You don’t have to worry about the presentation of your property or carrying out costly repairs.

You can exchange in 24 hours and receive payment in 7 days.

Why choose us to buy your house before repossession?

Many homeowners across the UK find themselves in arrears due to sudden life changes such as illness, job loss, divorce, and rising interest rates. Their best option is a quick sale company. Unfortunately, since the industry is unregulated, many quick sale companies prey on such people who are going through difficult times by gazundering them – making an attractive offer close to or over the market value, and drastically lowering this offer at the least convenient and most stressful time. Or they learn of the repossession date and then drag matters to the last second till there is no other choice but to go with them – even if they drastically lower their offer.

We believe in a better, fairer way.

Declan was excellent with my house sale and got it sold in a week. Very understanding of my needs. Would definitely use them again and would recommend them.
Tina Wilkinson
Declan and team worked tirelessly to find a buyer for our unique house. He was committed to meeting our very short timeframe to help us move back to the US – although our destination changed. Found an amazing buyer who understood our needs and we completed in 3 weeks! Declan has a trusted and trustworthy group of buyers he works with. A good network and commitment is hard to find. This was a perfect transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions


Can I sell a house with arrears?

Yes. We have had quite a few clients in similar situations approach us, and we have helped them swiftly sell their property before matters escalated between them and their mortgage lenders.

I’m about to be repossessed. Will Instant Home Offers still make an offer on my property?

Yes, we will still make an offer. If you accept our offer, then we will coordinate with your mortgage lender to confirm we are buying your property. However, please bear in mind that the longer you leave this decision, the more challenging and urgent it becomes.

How do I stop my house from being repossessed?

There are repossession solutions out there, and one of them is using a quick sale company. However, we caution you to be careful when approaching quick sale companies, as many resort to unscrupulous practices like making attractive offers close to or above market value, which they lower at the last and least convenient moment. With Instant Home Offers, you are guaranteed a fixed final offer that will never be lowered. We’ll help you clear your arrears and avoid court proceedings.

Can you really exchange contracts within 24 hours to stop repossession?

Yes – in many cases, we can exchange contracts within 24 hours to help you sell your house before repossession. If your solicitor provides a complete seller’s pack (including property information forms, title details, and AML/KYC checks), we can move immediately and coordinate with our network of the UK’s fastest house buyers. This speed means we can often stop property repossession before it progresses further. For sellers who aren’t under time pressure, we can follow a standard 10% deposit process and a more relaxed timeline.

Can your final offer change after the initial valuation and subsequent property inspection?

No – our final offer is guaranteed. When you choose to sell your house before repossession with Instant Home Offers, the price we agree on will not be lowered later. The only exception is if we identify a way to reduce costs (for example, fewer repairs needed), in which case we may increase our offer. Our focus is on transparency, not last-minute cuts.

Do I need to carry out repairs before selling a house with arrears or facing repossession?

No, you don’t need to fix or spend anything. We know how time-sensitive these situations are, which is why we buy houses with arrears or those under threat of repossession as-is. Whether your home needs work or is mortgage-restricted, we’ll handle it all. By selling before repossession, you can avoid additional costs, late payment charges, and the stress of trying to repair under pressure.

How do you handle the legal process when selling property before repossession?

Our SRA-accredited solicitors work closely with your lender and your solicitor to complete the sale quickly and legally. We’ll prepare the contracts, manage all AML/KYC checks, and agree on a completion date that gives you enough time to settle any arrears. Because the sale becomes legally binding once contracts are exchanged, it provides immediate protection against repossession.
