You might have heard about Part Exchange, where we act as a guaranteed cash buyer for your home, offering you up to 100% market value. Our Guaranteed Buyer service is similar, but it gives you a chance at achieving an open market price on your existing property, with our offer (which is based on a quick sale) waiting in the wings if you need it.
The service is simple and only has four steps.
How does Guaranteed Buyer work?
Step One
Visit your preferred Cala development and speak to our sales teams to discover which homes are available through our Guaranteed Buyer service. Once you decide on your new home, it’s time to focus on your current property.
Step Two
Cala will obtain two free independent valuations based on achieving a sale in a 4-8 week period.
Step Three
You’ll then receive an offer for your current home. This will be based on a quick sale, so you might find that this offer is lower than what we would be able to offer through our Part Exchange service.
However, you still have the opportunity to sell your home on the open market, so this is just a back-up offer in the instance that it does not sell as you hoped. During this time, you’ll be kept up to date on the progress of your Cala new build.
Step Four
The final step once you’ve received your offer is to put your existing home on the open market. Cala will act as a cash buyer if your home does not sell in the time agreed so your move to your new home is protected. If it does sell, we will give you a pre-agreed alternative incentive, so it’s win-win either way.
What are the benefits of Guaranteed Buyer?
Using our Guaranteed Buyer service means you can rest easy that the sale of your existing property won’t hold you back from the Cala home you’ve set your sights on. It allows purchasers to have the best of both worlds, as you can market your existing property as usual with a set price agreed by you and your estate agent, and if a sale falls through, Cala are here to step in.
If it doesn’t sell within the specified time, we will buy it from you at the agreed price. One great advantage is that the completion date will be the same as your new Cala home, making your move as smooth as possible.
