Tenanted property

Sell a house with tenants in situ

A let property brings tenancy agreements, notice periods, and buyers who often discount for hassle. That can slow a traditional sale or push you toward auction investors.

A let property brings tenancy agreements, notice periods, and buyers who often discount for hassle. That can slow a traditional sale or push you toward auction investors.

We buy select tenanted houses in our areas when the legal position is clear. We are cash buyers using our own funds, not brokers listing your lead elsewhere.

Our offer will usually sit below open-market value because we take on tenancy risk, management handover, and any compliance work the property needs.

How it works with us

  1. 1

    Tenancy paperwork first

    Share the tenancy type, rent, deposit protection, and whether the tenant wants to stay. We need your solicitor to confirm what can be sold with the tenant in place.

  2. 2

    Visit with access agreed

    We inspect with proper notice to the tenant. We are not surveyors for mortgage lenders; we assess condition and practical issues for our purchase.

  3. 3

    Offer and plan

    We explain whether we would buy with the tenancy continuing or after a managed handover. The written offer sets out assumptions so nothing is vague later.

  4. 4

    Conveyancing

    Landlord and tenant notices must be handled by your solicitor. Completion follows searches and both sides' conveyancers, not a marketing timetable.

Honest comparison

Every route has trade-offs. Cash offers from Wynne Estates are usually below open-market value; we set that out before you choose.

Estate agent sale

Pros

  • May find an investor buyer on the open market
  • Agent handles much of the marketing load

Cons

  • Many retail buyers cannot purchase with sitting tenants
  • Longer time on market can mean void risk if the tenancy ends awkwardly
  • Commission payable on completion; price may be chipped after survey

Auction

Pros

  • Investor audience used to tenanted stock
  • Fixed sale window

Cons

  • Legal pack costs and upfront fees
  • No certainty on final price until the hammer falls
  • Tenant rights still bind the buyer; misunderstandings cause fall-through

Wynne Estates

Pros

  • Direct purchase without listing boards and repeated viewings
  • We explain how we would handle the tenancy before you accept
  • Cash buyer with no onward chain on our side

Cons

  • Not every tenancy fits our model; we may decline
  • Offer below market to reflect landlord risk
  • Geographic and price band limits apply

Timescales (conditions apply)

  • Reviewing the tenancy

    Allow time for your solicitor to confirm assignment or vacant possession routes. We do not shortcut statutory notices.

  • Offer after visit

    Once we understand rent, arrears, and condition, we send a written cash offer. You can reject it without cost.

  • Completion

    We aim to complete as quickly as the solicitors and searches allow. We'll give you a realistic date once both conveyancers have reviewed the file.

If our visit shows more work or issues than we expected, we may revise the written offer and explain the change before you decide whether to accept.

FAQ

Do you always buy with tenants in place?

Only when the tenancy and title work for a cash purchase. Sometimes vacant possession is simpler; we will say which route we can support.

Will you manage the property after buying?

We handle the property after completion as the new owner. The sale is to us, not a management franchise.

What about arrears or deposit disputes?

We need full disclosure. Arrears and disputes affect our offer and may mean we cannot proceed until they are resolved.
