PSW Company Index
Three independent measures, built from verifiable data rather than the company's marketing: how its offer compares with the cash-buyer sector, how quickly it completes, and how openly it operates. Every input is shown so you can check the working.
Transparency signals
Good-practice signals
- Member of The Property Ombudsman (TPO)
- Member of the NAPB
- Complaints procedure published
- Typical offer level disclosed
- Data protection / privacy in place
- Independent redress / ombudsman route
- Legal fees policy stated
Contract red flags
- Conditional or hidden fees noted
- Late price-reduction pattern
- Tie-in / exclusivity required
- Early contract before completion
- Requires use of their solicitors
- Restricts marketing elsewhere
- Exit penalties mentioned
How these are calculated. Offer Fairness ranks the company's stated offer (as a % of market value) within the cash-buyer sector — all cash offers are below open-market value. Completion Speed is the fastest completion the company advertises, shown as a fact, not a score, because most firms advertise a similar best case; confirm any timescale in writing. Transparency adds points for TPO/NAPB membership, a published complaints procedure, a disclosed offer level, data-protection registration, an independent redress route and a stated legal-fees policy, and deducts for contract red flags; only publicly verifiable signals score. Full methodology.
Company Overview
Property Sale Now publicly presents itself as a direct cash buyer rather than a broker or agent. Its site says sellers are speaking directly to the buyer and not to a third party, and it says the business can buy without needing a mortgage or other lending. The stated process is: initial contact, a cash offer made subject to independent valuations, then confirmation of that offer after valuations, before solicitors are instructed. This suggests the first figure may be indicative rather than fully final. The business also says it covers valuation and legal costs and can work to a seller’s preferred timescale. However, the legal identity behind the trading name is not clearly disclosed on the reviewed site pages, which limits how far those direct-buyer claims can be independently tested against filings, charges, or accounts. Based on the available material, the operating model appears to be a direct-buyer proposition, but the hidden or unclear legal identity means sellers would need to clarify exactly which entity is buying and contracting.

Fees & Pricing
Property Sale Now’s public wording suggests a staged pricing model rather than a fully locked price at first contact. The site says a seller receives a cash offer that is subject to independent valuations, and that the offer is then confirmed after those valuations. That implies the initial number should be treated as provisional pending valuation input. The reviewed site material does not set out a detailed pricing formula or headline discount framework, but it does indicate that local estate agent valuations are involved through an independent valuation company. This suggests pricing is likely influenced by third-party valuation evidence rather than being fixed solely at the enquiry stage. On the evidence reviewed here, this does not by itself prove a problematic renegotiation pattern; it simply shows that there is an early validation stage built into the offer process. Because the legal buyer identity is not clearly disclosed publicly, sellers may want to clarify not only how the price is calculated, but also when the figure becomes binding, what events can change it, and whether any legal or valuation issues can reopen price discussion later in the process.
What Offer to Expect
Cash-buying companies pay below the open market in exchange for speed and certainty. The benchmarks below are worked on the current UK average house price of £270,080 (HM Land Registry / ONS UK House Price Index, June 2026). Your own figure depends on your property's value and condition.
On the UK-average £270,080 home, a cash offer works out at roughly £203,000–£230,000. Open-market figure is before agent and legal fees. Source: HM Land Registry / ONS UK House Price Index, June 2026.
| Route | Typical proceeds | On a £270,080 home | Typical speed | Sale falls through? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash-buying company | 75–85% of market value | £203,000–£230,000 | 7–28 days | Very low |
| Open-market sale (estate agent) | Close to full market value, minus agent & legal fees | ~£270,080 less fees | about 5–6 months (≈25 weeks) | roughly 25–35% (about 1 in 3) |
Offers can fall below 70% for properties needing significant work.

Funding & Completion Stability
Publicly, Property Sale Now presents itself as a chain-free direct cash buyer and says it can purchase without mortgage or other lending. It also advertises fast completions, including wording around 5 days or from 1 week onwards. On the surface, that suggests a model aimed at speed and reduced chain dependency. However, because the legal entity behind the brand is not clearly disclosed on the reviewed website pages, those claims cannot be properly cross-checked against Companies House charges, lender filings, accounts, or corporate history from the evidence set used here. The site also states that offers are subject to independent valuations and then confirmed afterwards, which means there is at least one later confirmation stage before full legal progression. Taken together, this suggests there may be a genuine ability to move quickly in some cases, but the public transparency gap makes completion certainty harder to assess than with a clearly disclosed operator. Sellers should clarify who exactly is buying, whether proof of funds can be shown before instructing solicitors, and whether the agreed price or funding route depends on valuation or internal sign-off.

Common complaints
Complaints & Common Issues
The reviewed public material gives only limited visibility into the actual transaction contract. The website explains the process at a high level and says the offer is subject to independent valuations before being confirmed, but it does not clearly publish seller-facing terms covering assignment, exclusivity, option structures, withdrawal consequences, or any onward sale rights. The website’s general Terms page is not a usable transaction document for this purpose and appears to contain placeholder company details rather than a clearly identified legal operator. That creates a transparency problem in itself, because sellers cannot easily tell from the public site who they would actually be contracting with. The site also promotes a free “independent solicitor”, which may be helpful operationally, but sellers would still need to clarify whether they are free to instruct their own solicitor without disadvantage. Overall, the contract position is under-disclosed in the public material reviewed. A seller should clarify the buying entity, whether the buyer has a binding obligation to complete, whether any exclusivity or withdrawal terms apply, and whether the agreement permits assignment, substitution, or any other onward dependency.

A seller should be cautious if they want full legal transparency up front, because the reviewed public site does not clearly identify the operating company behind the trading name. That makes it harder to verify charges, accounts, corporate history, directors, and funding arrangements before engaging. More cautious sellers may also want to slow down if they need a clearly evidenced proof-of-funds …
Who This Suits & Who Should Be Cautious
May suit sellers who…
This structure may suit a seller who is primarily looking for a simple, direct-buyer style process and is comfortable doing extra verification before committing. The public proposition is clearly aimed at homeowners who value speed, reduced chain exposure, and help with practical transaction costs such as valuations and solicitors. It may also appeal to sellers dealing with inherited property, low lease issues, or time-sensitive circumstances, because the site is built around fast-sale scenarios and flexible timescales. That said, the fit depends heavily on the seller being willing to pause and clarify the legal and funding position early. On the evidence reviewed, the public-facing process may be usable for a seller who wants to explore a direct cash-sale route but is also prepared to ask careful questions about who the actual contracting party is, when the offer becomes final, and whether proof of funds can be produced. In other words, it may suit a seller who wants speed but will not rely on marketing claims alone.
Be cautious if you…
A seller should be cautious if they want full legal transparency up front, because the reviewed public site does not clearly identify the operating company behind the trading name. That makes it harder to verify charges, accounts, corporate history, directors, and funding arrangements before engaging. More cautious sellers may also want to slow down if they need a clearly evidenced proof-of-funds process before legal work begins, or if they are uncomfortable with an initial offer that is subject to later valuation confirmation. Anyone comparing several fast-sale routes should also be careful if they want clear public disclosure of contract structure, withdrawal terms, exclusivity, assignment rights, or panel-solicitor implications, because those points were not clearly set out in the reviewed materials. In practice, this means the structure may be less suitable for a seller who wants everything visible and auditable before making contact, and more suitable only if the seller is prepared to ask detailed follow-up questions and verify the identity of the actual buyer entity before proceeding.
