Two honest things before you go further.

One. An asking price is a starting point, not a guarantee. What you see on PropertyPal is where a sale begins — some properties go for more, some for less. The number that actually matters is what a real, pre-approved buyer will pay for your property as it stands today. That is the figure we work to, backed by real achieved-price evidence for your area — not guesswork, and not a lowball.

Two. Selling tenanted is different to emptying the property first. To chase the headline price on the open market you would serve notice, wait out the notice period, lose rent through the void, refurbish to owner-occupier standard, market it for months, pay fees, and carry the risk of it falling through. Once you net all that off, the "full value" usually lands close to a fair tenanted offer that completes in weeks — with none of the hassle and nobody evicted.

If you want top price and you are happy to empty the property and wait months on the open market, we are probably not your best fit — and we will say so honestly. If you want a fair price with speed and certainty, read on.

Three ways to sell

The same property, three very different routes.

Most landlords only compare the headline price. Compare what actually reaches your pocket — and how long it takes to get there.

What matters to you Open-market sale
(empty it, then list)
A "we buy any house" buyer Owl & Ash
The price you get Potentially highest — but only after costs, voids & risk Well below market (their margin) A fair price, on real achieved data
Fee to you You typically pay 1% + marketing "Free" — baked into a low offer None — the buyer covers it
Your tenant Usually must leave; sell empty Often wants vacant Can stay in place
Timescale Months (notice + void + marketing) Fast Sale agreed immediately, not months
Certainty Risk of fall-through High High — a pre-approved buyer waiting
Hassle Refurb, lost rent, fees, viewings Low Low — we handle it

What the "wait for the headline price" route really costs

An illustrative greater-Belfast example: a property that sells on the open market for £125,000, sold empty, over about six months.

  • Estate agent fee (1% of £125,000)− £1,250
  • Agent marketing fee− £300
  • Mortgage still paid (~£450/mo × 6)− £2,700
  • Lost rent — tenant gives notice & leaves (~£725/mo × 6)− £4,350
  • Rates on the empty property (~£90/mo × 6)− £540
  • Buildings insurance while empty (~£40/mo × 6)− £240
Costs that come off the headline price− £9,380
What you actually keep on the open market: ~£115,620 — before any refurbishment to owner-occupier standard, and only if the sale doesn't fall through.

So what would you keep with us?

No agent fee. No marketing fee. No void — your tenant stays and keeps paying rent right up to completion. Nothing to refurbish, nothing to chase. Our fair tenanted offer is yours in full, because the buyer covers our costs, not you.

Sell on the open market
~£115,620
£125,000 headline, in ~6 months · tenant moved out · sale not guaranteed
Sell to Owl & Ash
£118,000
a fair tenanted offer, kept in full · agreed immediately · tenant stays · nothing to do

Same property — in this example you keep more, in weeks not months, with no hassle and nobody evicted.

Illustrative example only, for a typical greater-Belfast rental — your own figures will differ, and we will value yours properly against real achieved data. The Owl & Ash figure is an example offer for a tenanted property of this value; your actual offer depends on the property, its condition and the rent it earns. Rates, mortgage and insurance liabilities vary by property and circumstances.
