Why problem properties get stuck on the market
You know your property has issues. Maybe it needs work you can't afford. Maybe the lease is running down and buyers won't touch it. Maybe problem tenants are making it impossible to sell. Estate agents have tried and failed, or told you to spend thousands before they'll even list it. You're stuck - and the longer it drags on, the worse it feels. Our directors have been solving exactly these problems since 1998. No judgement, no pressure, and nothing to pay upfront.
Most buyers want something straightforward. The moment a survey flags structural issues, a short lease, or sitting tenants, they walk away. Traditional estate agents aren't set up to deal with complications, they want clean sales that complete quickly. So your property sits there. Price drops follow. Months pass. You start getting lowball offers from cash buyers who smell desperation and offer 70-75% of what your home is actually worth. You deserve better than that.
What makes our approach different
We don't make you a cheap cash offer, call it a day and leave you on the street. Our dedicated client services team speaks with you directly to understand exactly what's going on (the property issues, your financial situation, your timescale) then we put together a plan that actually solves the problem. Short lease? We can extend it. Needs refurbishment? We handle that. Difficult tenants? We deal with them. The goal is always the same: get you the full market value of your property, not a fraction of it. There are no hidden fees and nothing to pay upfront. Our fee, usually 10% to 15% of the sale price, comes from the proceeds at completion.
The cost of doing nothing
Property problems don't fix themselves. A short lease loses value every single year it ticks down. Damp spreads. Structural cracks get worse. Difficult tenants cause more damage. The longer you wait, the fewer options you have and the less your property is worth. One phone call can change that. We've helped hundreds of people in your exact position over the past three decades, and a phone call with us costs you absolutely nothing.
Common property problems we solve
Properties in disrepair
Subsidence, damp, roof damage, outdated electrics... whatever the issue, we work with the property as it is. No need to spend money you don't have on repairs before selling.
Difficult or non-paying tenants
Problem tenants scare off buyers and drain your income. We take on the situation directly so you can sell without waiting months for eviction proceedings to grind through the courts.
Failed sales and collapsed chains
If your sale has fallen through once (or multiple times), we work outside the traditional chain.
Properties that won't sell
Been on the market for months with no serious offers? We'll look at why it's stuck and put together a real plan to get it sold at a price that's fair to you, not a fire-sale figure.

Before I got in touch with Faster Property Solutions, I was way behind on payments on our mortgage and in debt. I was no longer working due to health issues, I saw the advert on TV. I had initially tried to get help through my mortgage company, but they couldn’t assist, and there were no other options that wouldn’t have left us homeless. The option offered by Faster Property Solutions was the best fit for our needs. Prab visited us, went through everything in detail, and provided a solution that meant we wouldn’t be made homeless. They cleared our debts. There were no upfront payments, and overall, the experience was very good, the team was extremely helpful, communication was excellent, and they even assisted us in finding an onward property. I would rate my experience 9.5 out of 10! If someone was in a similar situation to ours, I would absolutely recommend Faster Property Solutions. Amber was incredibly helpful and understanding, and she spent a lot of time supporting us throughout the process.

I found myself in serious debt and, despite my best efforts to resolve it, the situation continued to worsen until I was facing repossession. After seeing an FPS advertisement in the paper, I decided to make contact, and from the very first call I felt completely reassured. FPS acted swiftly to clear my arrears and successfully stopped the repossession — all without requiring any upfront payment. I was also provided with valuable support through cash advances to help manage my debts. Throughout the entire process, communication was clear, consistent, and professional. My overall experience with Faster Property Solutions has been extremely positive. I would confidently rate the service 9 out of 10 and would not hesitate to recommend FPS to anyone facing similar financial difficulties. A special thank you to the whole team for their professionalism, care, and exceptional support throughout.
I was really struggling with my finances and couldn’t keep up with my arrears or mortgage payments. Faster Property Solutions came out to meet me and talk through what could be done, and they honestly took a lot of the stress away.

I was really struggling with my finances and couldn’t keep up with my arrears or mortgage payments. Faster Property Solutions came out to meet me and talk through what could be done, and they honestly took a lot of the stress away. I didn’t have to pay anything upfront, and they handled everything professionally and kept in touch throughout. They always answered my questions and did exactly what they said they would. I’d rate my experience 8 out of 10, only because I felt the fees were a bit high, but overall the service was excellent. I’ve already been telling people about FPS! Big thanks to Tim and Jasmine, they were both brilliant and really easy to talk to.

My property has a short lease - can you still buy it?
Yes. We handle short lease properties regularly and can manage the lease extension process ourselves. A short lease does not reduce our ability to offer you a fair price.
My house needs major repairs and I cannot afford to fix it - what can I do?
We buy properties in any condition. You do not need to spend money on repairs, redecoration, or maintenance before we make an offer. We take it as it is.
I have difficult tenants and cannot sell - can you help?
Yes. We purchase tenanted properties and deal with the tenant situation after completion. You do not need to go through an eviction process before selling to us.
My property has been on the market for months with no offers - why is this different?
We are a cash buyer with our own funds. There is no chain, no mortgage to arrange, and no survey that can kill the deal. We make an offer and we complete, typically within 7 to 10 days.
A previous sale fell through - how do I know this one will not?
Our sales do not fall through because we buy with cash and there is no chain. Once we agree a price with you, completion is guaranteed. We have been doing this since 1998.
