Why Landlords Are Looking to Sell Right Now

The Situation Has Changed.
Selling a Tenanted Property Has Never Been More Relevant.

The Renters' Rights Act came into force on 1 May 2026. Section 21 is gone. For many landlords, the decision to sell has gone from something to think about to something that needs a plan. If you're in that position, the questions below will be familiar.

Concern 01

"Section 21 is gone — if a problem tenant stops paying, what can I actually do?"
The new possession ground system through Section 8 requires documented evidence and court action. For many landlords, the certainty they relied on has changed significantly.

Concern 02

"My mortgage is up for renewal at a much higher rate. The numbers no longer work."
With average BTL mortgage rates around 5%, and Section 24 still biting, net yield for many leveraged landlords is near zero or negative.

Concern 03

"I want to sell, but I'm worried about losing income if the property sits empty."
This is the most common friction point. Selling with tenants in situ — without a void period — is exactly what we facilitate. Your rent continues until the day of completion.

Concern 04

"I'm approaching retirement. I just want this to be simple."
For retirement landlords, property was meant to be a pension supplement, not a source of ongoing stress. Exiting cleanly and efficiently is a legitimate and well-planned decision.

88%

of landlords surveyed in 2025 reported no confidence in the private rental sector.

67%

of landlords planned to reduce portfolios or exit the sector entirely by early 2025.

1 May

2026: Renters' Rights Act in force. Section 21 abolished. Rolling tenancies begin.

How the Assisted Sale Works

What Happens After You Get in Touch

Once you make an enquiry, a specialist tenanted property sales team takes over. Here's what the process looks like — and what you don't have to deal with yourself.

You Submit Your Details

Fill out the form on this page and we'll find you the best route for your property type and situation.

A Specialist Contacts You

A property sales expert calls you to understand your situation, assess the property, and explain exactly what they can achieve for you — and how.

They Handle Everything

Tenants are managed sensitively. Buyers are sourced. Legal complexities are assisted through. Any issues that arise during the sale are dealt with on your behalf.

You Complete the Sale

You receive the proceeds of the sale. The specialist service has done the heavy lifting — you've had a guided, less hands-on route to completion.

Common Questions

What Landlords Usually Ask Before Enquiring

"Will I get less because I'm selling with a sitting tenant?"

Not necessarily — and this is one of the key reasons a specialist service makes sense. The right buyers for a tenanted property are investors who want a tenant in place, because they get immediate rental income. A specialist service knows how to find those buyers and position your property correctly for that market — something a standard estate agent typically doesn't do well.

"What about my tenants — are they looked after?"

Tenant management is a core part of what the assisted sale service handles. They communicate with your tenants sensitively throughout the process and ensure their legal rights are protected. You don't have to manage those conversations yourself — that's precisely what makes this different from trying to sell through a standard estate agent.

"Why is this better than just using an estate agent?"

Standard estate agents are not set up for tenanted sales. They don't specialise in finding investor buyers, they aren't equipped to manage the tenant relationship during a sale, and they're typically less experienced with the legal nuances involved. An assisted sale service exists specifically for this situation — it's not a workaround, it's the right tool for the job.

"What does 'assisted sale' actually mean in practice?"

It means a specialist team takes on the responsibilities that make a tenanted sale complex: liaising with your tenants, sourcing appropriate buyers, navigating the legal process, and managing any issues that come up along the way. Your role is to agree to sell and stay informed — the expertise and legwork sit with the service.

"I'm worried about CGT — should I sort that before I enquire?"

You don't need to have the tax position resolved before making an enquiry. The specialist will talk you through what a sale would realistically achieve, which gives you concrete numbers to take to your accountant. Capital gains on residential property is currently 18% (basic rate) or 24% (higher rate), with a 60-day reporting requirement after completion — but getting the sale picture clear is usually the right first step.

What does this cost me, and why are you recommending it?

The introduction from us is free. The assisted sale service charges are agreed directly between you and the specialist — they'll be transparent about that on the initial call. We recommend this service because we've assessed what's available for landlords in this situation and this is, in our view, the right solution for selling a tenanted residential property in England and Wales.

Is This Right For You?

Who This Service Is Designed For

The assisted sale service we recommend works best in specific situations. We'd rather be upfront about this than have you spend time on an enquiry that isn't likely to be a good fit.
This service is well suited if you…
  • Own a residential property with a sitting tenant
  • Want a less hands-on sale — without managing tenants, buyers, or legal complexity yourself
  • Own a freehold house (terraced, semi-detached, or detached)
  • Property is located in England or Wales
  • Are looking to exit fully or reduce your portfolio
  • Want a realistic picture of what the sale would achieve before committing
  • Are tired of the regulatory burden and want a clean exit
This is likely a poor fit if you…
  • Own a leasehold flat or apartment
  • Own commercial property
  • Have a property outside England or Wales
  • Are not yet decided on selling — still firmly in the 'thinking about it' stage
  • Are looking for a traditional open-market sale with an estate agent
Not certain if your situation fits? Make an enquiry anyway — the specialist will assess it honestly and tell you whether this is the right route for your property.

We sold 3 properties in less than 3 weeks. They all sold for the full amount initially discussed. I particularly liked the transparency of the service and having conversations I could trust.

You took control of everything. I'd been trying to sell my tenanted properties for 2 years with no success. The team handled it all — buyers, tenants, legals. It was a completely different experience.

Alasdair & Farouk

Having sold 23 properties through the company, the next 10 I sell will also be with them. The service is exceptional and they know exactly how to handle tenanted sales.
