🏡 Are you a landlord — or are you a tenant?
This could be an interesting option for you! 👇
🏠 If you’re a landlord:
Thinking about selling your rental property? You may be able to sell directly to your tenant at a small discount, potentially giving you a straightforward sale without estate agent fees or the worry of a void period.
🔑 If you’re a tenant:
What if you could buy the home you already live in without needing to save a traditional cash deposit?
With the right circumstances, a landlord’s discount can potentially be used as gifted equity towards the purchase.
For example:
💷 Property value: £200,000
🏡 Agreed purchase price: £196,000
🎁 Gifted equity: £4,000
In certain circumstances, this could allow the tenant to purchase the property with little or no cash deposit, subject to affordability, credit profile and lender criteria.
So, could this be a win-win?
✔️ Landlords get an alternative route to sell
✔️ Tenants get the opportunity to buy the home they already live in
✔️ Both parties could potentially avoid the traditional selling process
There are specific criteria and it won’t be suitable for everyone — but if you’re a landlord considering selling, or a tenant who would love to buy your rented home, it’s definitely worth having a conversation.
