The property selling process is filled with legal jargon, hidden costs and different taxes that you may or may not have to pay.

Throughout the 2016/17 financial year, families across Britain paid over £5bn in inheritance tax for the first time in history. This was largely attributed to higher numbers of middle-class families facing the tax due to the rising house prices in the South, and an increase in stamp duty stopping older homeowners from downsizing.

With a 9% rise in the amount of Inheritance Tax paid, it’s important that anyone looking to sell a property is aware of any taxes certain circumstances may require them to pay. Therefore, we’ve created our tax calculators.

Dealing with Inheritance and Capital Gains Tax, they help anyone selling a house find out how much they could be liable to pay. However, these taxes don’t always need paying and it’s only under certain circumstances that they do.

These taxes can be complex if you don’t have a starting point, so our calculators are designed to help you. However, there may be factors that we can’t account for, so it’s important to only take these as estimates.

You can find our Capital Gains Tax calculator here and our Inheritance Tax Calculator here.

Frequently asked questions

No. Because we purchase directly, there are no estate agent fees involved when you sell to us.

No, our service is completely free for sellers. We cover all legal costs and there are no estate agent fees or commissions to pay.

No, there are no hidden ‘catches’ with our service. We buy any house, given that we agree on a fair purchase price in accordance with the market. Once we have your details, we’ll make an offer (in as little as 15 mins!), and you can accept or simply turn it down if it doesn’t meet your expectations.

You can expect no hidden fees also – our services are completely free to use!

You will receive a formal offer from us in as little as 15 minutes. After you tell us a bit about your property, our team will undertake a detailed analysis of the area, marketplace and the property itself to present you with an informed offer.

There’s no obligation either. If our offer doesn’t meet your expectations or requirements, then you can simply turn it down.

It depends on the selling method you choose:

With Quick Sell Your House: Once the Grant of Probate has been received, we can complete a sale in as little as 3 working days from the point contracts are exchanged. We can also work to a longer timeline if you need more time. There is no chain and no risk of the sale falling through.

Via a traditional estate agent: A sale through the open market typically takes an average of 6–9 months from listing to completion, and that is before probate is factored in, which typically takes 6–12 months in itself. 

Quick Sell Your House can begin the process while you wait for probate, so your sale can be ready to complete almost immediately once the Grant arrives.

This is a tricky question. As we’ve covered above, there are many stages to the selling process on the open market. Every sale is different, but it can take up to six months from listing to handing over the keys. By selling with Quick Sell Your House, you can cut this time down to a tiny fraction of that.
