As surveyors see house price falls across the UK (except London) it’s no surprise that those who need to sell are now looking for a quick house sale.

The slowdown in the housing market has long been debated ever since the Northern Rock debacle. And as Wall Street falls into chaos as a result of further collapses in the sub-prime housing market, the jitters are being felt closer to home. Now, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors has announced the slowdown in the housing market is becoming more pronounced. This is bad news for homeowners seeking a quick house sale.

It’s harder to get a quick house sale as the market slows. There are fewer buyers around and with rock bottom confidence it doesn’t take much of a jitter to pull out of a sale. The more property chains collapse the whole housing market begins to look like a house of cards – one falls and they all start falling. A quick house sale is necessary if you’re a homeowner desperate to avoid house repossession because of escalating debts, or if you simply can’t afford to keep a house stagnating on the market. You may need a quick house sale because of a job offer in another part of the UK, a relationship breakdown or the chance to emigrate abroad. Whatever your reason for a quick house sale, it can seem impossible given the current climate and the threat of plummeting property prices.

You can however achieve a quick house sale by opting to use a specialist property buyer. There are companies that specialise in buying properties fast for cash to help people desperate to move or sell. Although the companies will offer a price slightly below the open market valuation, you could end up saving money in the long run if your property is at risk of stagnating on a slowing down market. According to the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors house prices are not only falling month on month but are falling at their fastest pace since 2005.

“The housing market is seeing the awaited slowdown that many had been expecting, with modest falls reported across most UK regions,” a spokesman for the Institute told the BBC. The unaffordability of homes relative to average incomes has increased to record levels as a result of increased interest rates and high property prices, leaving more homeowners desperate for a quick house sale to avoid the very real risk of repossession.
