National Homebuyers are definitely fixated on paying 85% max of property value

I recently had an unsolicited letter from National Homebuyers stating " making me a cash offer hopefully achieving the price i require " and after many attempts to get hold of them their Georgia has just called me ....... She very politely and quickly said that they would provisionally offer me 85% of my asking price etc ..... She did not respond when i said that NH denied the rigid 85% figure when people complained about it on this site ...... but regardless of what they say on this site NH very clearly are fixated on buying properties for 85% max of there value ...... or possibly less i guess if they can ..... 85% might suit a minority of desperate homeowners but not the majority of people who are looking to move for the usual reasons .... but NH know the price people want for there properties and perhaps NH should just be up front about it in their letters before people waste time chasing them !!! The latest on 15/11/2024 Following NHs response ..... well of course BH " see no point in responding to my review " because its totally true ..... like the other similar reviews on this site !!!!

Rather than respond to this review specifically, we would like to direct the reader's to the other 63 Trustpilot reviews. Simple put we do not feel that responding directly would be of any benefit to ourselves.

We do of course wish the gentleman the best with the sale of the property.

Avoid this company. They will waste your time and money…

We were seeking quick sale on a rental property and from the start we aware that the proposed offer would be below market price and agreed to proceed because we were assured that the sale would be completed quickly by the 7th of September which was a few days after our tenants vacated. As of the 1st of November facing a lack of adequate communication regarding when the sale will complete and numerous excuses from the company regarding returning calls, we have still not exchanged. We have constantly been the party trying to engage with them on a daily basis to get an answer. This is not the quick and easy process promoted on their website. My belief is that they don’t have the funds to complete sale. To date this has cost us a substantial amount of time and money as well as losing good tenants. I would honestly avoid dealing with this company. It’s not clear what their business model is other than to waste your time and money. As of Jan 2025 We have now put this property for sale at a price just above what we originally going to get from this company at the proviso it’s for cash and a quick exchange. A follow up to my first post , the end of the story with this company ,I was contacted with in 10 minutes after my post by Elizabeth who we were dealing with. after a very heated discussion I said I would take the post down if they contacted my solicitor with an exchange date by the end of the day , (Friday ) she said she had to wait for the underwriters meeting but would let me know by the end of the day , she did phone but said there was no decision . So another weekend of stress , On Monday morning I was called by Elizabeth with out come that they would buy the house at a price below 400k , so this is the game !!! . Just for transparency We had the house valued by 3 agents at £550 k , that is the price for the street , we agreed a quick sale price at £456 k In July with them and to make the property vacant, for an exchange at the begin of September , it didn't happen ,it was still going on when I posted this review and after that the price dropped again to sub £400 k but no firm price , I leave it to you the reader to make up your mind about this company . As a up date on there last posting Today yes we have dropped the price with our new agent as we want a quick sale and it’s being marketed as such so no difference to what they originally were offering , but its nice to know it might go to a real person

We feel this review is extremely one sided and that a lot of it is factually incorrect….. However we are not prepared to get into an online disagreement.
If you feel you do have a significant complaint against our company please visit our complaints page and we will look into this and carry out a full review of your file and be happy to come back to you with a full explanation when we have looked at everything in detail.

8/1/25 Update from National Homebuyers
The property has now been reduced by £90,000 which we feel vindicates our valuation. (20% drop in the asking price)

DO NOT USE! WORST SERVICE IMAGINABLE

DO NOT USE! APPALLING COMPANY, APPALLING SERVICE.

*Edited to add: DO NOT BELIEVE their reply to this review - the delays were entirely down to their solicitor, and they were lowering the offer in no uncertain terms, not because I wished to rush the sale through or because my solicitor hadn't provided documents. Total liars, appalling company.*

Accepted to an offer (80% of market value) from National Homebuyers in June 2024 and took the property off the open market. I agreed to this offer for a rapid, guaranteed cash sale which is what NHB promises (their website states that completion can take as little as 7 days). More than 18 weeks later, they've still not finalised legal matters & have just LOWERED THE OFFER.

NHB and their solicitors repeatedly delayed the process, taking weeks to complete the most simple conveyancing tasks or read/respond to documents, without any explanation and despite me chasing them countless times. They just string you along and then lower the offer at the last minute.

Dear Laura D

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, in light of your review we have carried out a full review of your file to establish exactly what has happened as this is not how we operate with any clients and our solicitors are always very reactive and proactive with all sales to achieve completion to every expected time line.

We can see you sent us an email in which you have said the process was delayed because our solicitor did not receive an attachment from your solicitor due to the size of the attachment which was we were totally unaware of in addition we can see all our solicitor was asking were standard questions that any purchaser would ask which despite chasing were never answered.

Due to the lack of information and the fact that you wanted to proceed we explained that we would still buy the property at a reduced rate without the information or we could wait on your solicitor providing the information and in which case we would happily pay the agreed price.

Of course we understand the frustration felt but this was not our fault and we pride ourselves in transacting very quickly and sometimes we can complete within days if we are working with an efficient solicitor, unfortunately this was not the case with this transaction, we do wish you the best of luck with the sale.

Exceptional customer service from Georgia. I called national homebuyers being very hesitant but I was reassured after Georgia answered all of my questions promptly. If you’re looking for a quick hassle free sale I’d certainly recommend this service.

Unsolicited junk mail

I'm editing this review because national homebuyers are very quick at flagging any genuine reviews that aren't positive. My first contact with the company was after I received unsolicited junk mail through the post. This is true. I did not consent to receiving direct marketing and I have been registered on the Mail Preference service for many years. This is true. This was clearly not checked and the unwanted, unsolicited communications were still sent. This is true.

Regarding the marketing I received, my opinion is that the information contained within it was intentionally misleading.

My understanding is that the company are using fake reviews on TrustPilot and trying to get any negative reviews removed. This is purely my opinion based on my experience of having contact with the company and the incredibly quick turnaround of having my previous review flagged.

I have nothing to gain from this review, I just wanted to share my personal experience and opinions, which seem to be the exact opposite of all the 5 star reviews here. My house is still for sale, they are welcome to make an offer on it through my estate agent.

Initially hesitant to make contact?

Spoke to Ciaran this morning about selling my bungalow. Awaiting a further telephone call this afternoon from another person who has researched my property in greater depth, with a view to upping the purchase price offered to me hopefully.
I have given 5 stars for answering all my questions and the professional attitude of Ciaran towards me this morning. I have nothing to loose as there is no pressure to sell.
