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
Quick Property Buyer appears to operate as the trading style of Acuity Invest Limited and publicly presents itself as a direct cash buyer rather than a simple introducer. The site says the buying company is Acuity Invest Limited and says the company that would purchase the property is the same entity named on the site. It also states that it uses its own cash and says it can send proof of funds to a seller’s solicitor. At the same time, the published terms make clear that any initial offer is conditional on survey, searches and later issues affecting value. The site therefore presents a direct-buyer model, but one where the offer remains provisional until due diligence is complete. Taking the filed accounts into account, sellers should not assume that “own cash” necessarily means large visible balance-sheet liquidity from the published micro-accounts alone. The practical position appears to be: direct-buyer presentation, but with funding capacity and deal scale not fully evidenced in public filings.
Products, Services & Process
Property types accepted
Residential — any condition
- Contact the company by phone or online form to provide property details.
- Receive a no-obligation indicative cash offer, typically within 24 hours.
- If the offer is of interest, a formal valuation is carried out.
- A formal offer is made. If accepted, solicitors are instructed.
- Choose a completion date to suit your circumstances.
- Contracts exchanged and funds transferred on the agreed date.
Fees & Pricing
The pricing model is presented as a trade-buyer model rather than a full-market-value route. The terms say the business does not pay full market value and that up to 80% of the property value may be paid, depending on type, area, condition, age and construction. Initial valuations are said to be based on Land Registry transactions and similar local properties, with a full survey then used before confirmation. The initial offer is expressly stated to be conditional on final survey, adverse search entries and other later-revealed matters that affect value. That suggests an indicative-first approach rather than a fully locked price from the outset. In the current public review sample, there is not enough volume to establish a strong late-reduction pattern either way. Sellers should therefore assume that meaningful price certainty increases only after survey and legal diligence, not at first contact.
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, Quick Property Buyer's stated offer works out at roughly £216,000–£216,000, versus £203,000–£230,000 for the typical cash buyer. 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? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quick Property Buyer (this company) | up to 80% of market value | £216,000–£216,000 | 7–28 days | Very low |
| Typical cash buyer | 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.

| Factor | Cash-buying company | Estate agent (open market) | Auction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical proceeds | 75–85% of market value | Close to full market value (minus fees) | Variable — reserve plus hammer price |
| Typical timeline | 7–28 days | about 5–6 months (≈25 weeks) | ~6–10 weeks (incl. 28-day completion) |
| Sale falls through? | Very low | roughly 25–35% (about 1 in 3) | around 15% |
| Fees to you | Usually none — buyer covers legal costs | Agent commission (~1–2%+VAT), legal, EPC | Auction/entry fees, legal pack |
| Effort required | Minimal | Viewings, staging, chain management | Legal pack, viewings, reserve setting |

Funding & Completion Stability
The website presents Quick Property Buyer as a direct purchaser using Acuity Invest Limited as the buyer and says it uses its own cash. However, the latest filed micro-entity accounts show current assets of £11,568, creditors due within one year of £39,585, net current liabilities of £28,017, total net liabilities of £28,017, and zero employees; those figures are shown unchanged from the prior year. That does not prove the business cannot complete purchases, because micro-accounts are limited and do not capture every possible funding route. But it does mean the public accounts do not, on their face, evidence a strong balance-sheet cash position behind repeated rapid house purchases. The company’s own terms also state that the initial offer is conditional on surveys, searches and later issues affecting value. Taken together, the structure may still function as a direct-buyer route, but completion certainty before exchange should be treated as conditional rather than fully evidenced by the accounts alone.

Common complaints
Complaints & Common Issues
The published terms indicate a materially controlled process rather than a loose, informal offer. The agreement is said to remain in force for 4 months from signing. If it is terminated within that period, the company says it may register a Unilateral Notice against the property at HM Land Registry to protect its interest while the agreement remains in force. The terms also say the agreement can be cancelled within a 14-day cooling-off period, but if the seller terminates within the agreement term the company says it may seek reimbursement of costs and expenses up to £950 at its discretion. Sellers are said to be free to use their own solicitor, although seller legal fees are only covered if the recommended solicitor is used. Based on the available wording, this appears to be a signed, time-limited, restrictive arrangement with possible exit cost exposure. Sellers should clarify exactly when exclusivity starts, what is prohibited during the term, when any unilateral notice may be registered, and what events trigger reimbursement liability.

Who This Suits & Who Should Be Cautious
May suit sellers who…
This structure may suit a seller who wants to explore a direct-buyer route and understands that the fast-sale trade-off usually involves a substantial discount to full market value. It may also suit someone who is comfortable with one named corporate buyer, accepts that the first offer is provisional, and is willing to let survey and legal diligence determine whether the deal proceeds on the same terms. A seller who values speed over price may find the model worth exploring, provided they verify the buyer entity, read the agreement carefully and do not rely only on headline marketing claims about “own cash” or speed. The structure looks more suitable for a seller who is organised, legally advised and prepared to clarify proof of funds, contract restrictions and exit consequences before signing.
Be cautious if you…
Sellers should be more cautious if they need a fully fixed price at a very early stage, want to keep marketing flexibility, or are uncomfortable entering into a 4-month agreement with possible Land Registry protection and potential reimbursement liability up to £950. Caution is also sensible where a seller is relying heavily on the company’s “own cash” wording, because the filed accounts do not, on their face, show a strong balance-sheet cash position: the micro-accounts show modest current assets, current liabilities exceeding current assets, total net liabilities, and zero employees. None of that proves the company cannot buy property, but it does mean funding strength is not strongly evidenced by the public accounts alone. Sellers should therefore verify proof of funds directly and avoid treating the initial offer or headline timeline as fully secure before exchange.
