hi we currently have our house on the market and was wondering whether anybody had ever used these internet companies that claim to buy any home for up to 90% of the current property's market value?

Oh, I'm not excusing them or their practices, I just don't understand why you cannot declare yourself out once they come with a silly figure.

Even if you've spent £500 on their fees this is still a drop in the ocean to the loss you'll make on selling your home to them.... Isn't it?

Everyone knows webuyanycar undervalue for example, they don't have a moral obligation to offer you slightly above market value. You only need to sign on the dotted line if you're happy with the price they are offering.
