Why houses in north Nottinghamshire often need a cash buyer

A lot of good houses here are hard to sell on the open market, and mining is usually the reason. The Nottinghamshire coalfield ran through Worksop, Warsop, Clipstone and Ollerton, and the housing built for the pits is still here. Some of it isn't standard brick and block, which many lenders won't lend on. Old workings under the ground mean a coal authority search, and that can hold a sale up or stop it. Those are the houses we tend to buy.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the property. Fill in the short form or ring us. We need the address and a rough idea of the condition.
  2. We ring you back. As fast as we can. You'll speak to someone who can make you an offer there and then, not a call handler.
  3. Written offer the same day. A real figure, and we explain how we got to it. It's valid for 14 days, with no obligation.
  4. You choose the completion date. Usually 7 to 28 days. The legal work (conveyancing) is done by SRA-regulated solicitors, and you can use your own at any stage. We can cover your legal fees if you use our panel solicitor.

Frequently asked questions

North Nottinghamshire: Bassetlaw District, covering Worksop and Retford, and Mansfield District. We work to roughly a 20 mile radius of our South Yorkshire base, so we don't usually buy as far south as Nottingham itself.

Yes. Much of the stock across Warsop, Clipstone, Ollerton and Shireoaks was built for the coalfield. Mining searches and non-traditional construction are routine for us.

Yes, and border postcodes are common for us. Worksop sits closer to Sheffield than to Nottingham, and we buy on both sides of that line every month.

Typically 7 to 28 days from acceptance, on a date you choose.

There's no call centre. We're a small local team based in South Yorkshire, so Worksop, Retford and Mansfield are a short drive away. When you ring, you speak to somebody who can talk about numbers. If we need to see the house, one of us comes out ourselves. We buy with our own money, so nobody else has to approve it.

We're local, not a national brand. South Yorkshire Property Buyers is run by two small companies, Bullseye Properties Ltd (14869608) and Dearne Valley Properties Ltd (11886498). You can check both on Companies House. We know Worksop, Retford and Mansfield street by street, so our figure is based on what your house is worth here, not a national average.

We don't work to a fixed percentage. We price every house on its own: the condition, the street, whether it's freehold or leasehold, and what you tell us. So we won't put a figure on it before we've spoken to you. What you get is our best offer at that point, not a low opener we creep up from. You're trading some of the price for speed, certainty and no fees. That trade isn't right for everybody. If you can afford to wait, an estate agent will normally get you more.

Usually yes, if you can wait. An open market sale in Retford or Ordsall will normally beat a cash offer on price. That holds as long as the house is in decent order and your buyer's chain doesn't fall apart. We're worth a look when speed, cost or a difficult house matters more to you than the highest price. We'll tell you honestly if the agent route suits you better.

Yes, and stalled sales are a big part of what we do. Sales fall through for all sorts of reasons. A chain collapses, a buyer's mortgage is refused, or a survey makes a lender nervous. None of that stops us. We aren't borrowing to buy and there's no chain behind us. Send us the address and a rough idea of the condition, and we can give you a written offer the same day.

No. We don't charge you anything at any point, and there are no estate agent fees. We can cover your legal fees if you use our panel solicitor. You can use your own solicitor instead, which is your right. Their bill would then be yours to pay. There's no valuation fee, no admin fee and nothing to find up front.

No. Take what matters to you and leave the rest. We buy houses in any state, and we clear whatever's left after completion. There's nothing to tidy, nothing to repair and no viewings to get ready for. If you need longer to go through things, we can set the completion date to suit you.

There's no board outside, no listing on the property websites and no stream of strangers walking round your house. We keep it quiet at our end. We can't promise nobody ever finds out. The sale is registered at the Land Registry afterwards and that record is public, but it won't come from us.

Sometimes, and we won't pretend it's certain. Completion normally takes 7 to 28 days from the day you accept, and the fastest we've done is 7 days. If a court date is close, that can be enough. A lender will sometimes hold off once a solicitor confirms a real sale is running. Ring us today rather than next week, and keep talking to your lender.

No, we don't chip away at the price for the sake of it. The offer is valid for 14 days, and it's based on what you tell us and what we see. If the legal work turns up something serious, we'd have to talk about the figure again. That means a title problem, or structural trouble nobody knew about. We'd explain why, not just drop it.

We ring back as fast as we can. Tell us the best time to try in the message box on the form. You'll speak to somebody who can talk about numbers on that first call, not a call handler taking details for somebody else. If you'd rather ring us, the number is 07739 063734.
