About South Yorkshire Property Buyers

Last updated 4 May 2026

Who we are

South Yorkshire Property Buyers is the consumer-facing brand of Bullseye Properties Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 14869608. The company was founded in 2023 by Connor Blades, who continues to direct it day to day.

We are a small team of property professionals based in South Yorkshire. We buy residential property directly with our own funds, hold it on our own balance sheet, and either let it as a long-term rental or refurbish and resell it. We do not pass leads on to third parties, and we do not operate a panel of investors who decide whether or not to buy. The decision-maker is the person you speak to.

Why we set up South Yorkshire Property Buyers

The cash-buyer corner of the UK property market has a reputation problem. Many of the largest "we buy any house" companies are lead-generation brands operating nationally, with offers that drop late in the process and contracts designed to lock sellers into exclusivity. Other operators are not buyers at all — they are middlemen who agree a price, then shop your property to a network of investors and reduce their offer if no one bites.

We started South Yorkshire Property Buyers because the people we live near, in Sheffield and across the region, deserve a straightforward alternative. One that quotes a price and stands behind it, covers the legal fees as promised, and treats people in difficult circumstances — repossession, probate, divorce, problem tenants — with dignity rather than as a lead to be processed.

How we operate

The process is the same for every property we buy:

• Initial enquiry. You contact us through the website form, by email, or by phone. We respond within hours, not days.
• Offer within 24 hours. We make a written cash offer based on the property's open market value, condition, and our own resale assumptions. We explain how we arrived at the figure.
• Proof of funds. Available on request, before any commitment. We use our own capital, so this is not a hypothetical pre-approval — it is cash that already exists.
• Legal work via our panel solicitors. We cover the conveyancing fees on your side, so you do not pay for the sale.
• Completion on your timeline. Most of our purchases complete in 7 to 28 days, but we can move slower if probate, an onward purchase, or a tenancy notice period requires it.

Where we buy

We focus on South Yorkshire and the immediately surrounding areas. That means Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster, and Barnsley as the four core South Yorkshire markets, plus Chesterfield in Derbyshire, Worksop and Retford in Nottinghamshire, Mansfield, and Gainsborough in Lincolnshire. We know these markets in depth — the postcode-by-postcode price differences, the streets that flood, the ex-colliery stock, the student-let HMO areas, the post-2010 new-build estates. Local knowledge is what allows a fair offer to be made quickly and held to.

What we will not do

• Drop the price at the eleventh hour. Our offer is the offer. If something material is later discovered (an undisclosed defect, a title issue) we discuss it openly. We do not make a high opening offer to win an exclusivity agreement and then renegotiate.
• Charge upfront fees. No valuation fees, no admin fees, no booking fees, no anything. A legitimate cash buyer is paid by selling or renting the property after purchase, not by extracting fees from sellers.
• Pass your details on. Your enquiry stays with us. We do not sell or share your information with third-party investors, marketing networks, or finance brokers.
• Operate from a script. Every situation is different. A probate sale where the executor lives 200 miles away is not the same as a landlord exiting a single buy-to-let, which is not the same as someone facing repossession with three months on the clock. We adjust to the situation in front of us.
