If facing repossession and you sell your property through Housetrade as opposed to organisations offering to buy your house for cash the difference is that they will ALWAYS offer you a value that is below the true market value of the property. This is because they need to buy a house cheaper than they will sell it on for. You will notice houses sold in this way will be on the market within days of the sale completing and be advertised for anything up to 15% more than the previous owner sold the property for. Whereas using Housetrade to sell my house online provides you with the best opportunity to maximise the sale value of your home.
