“If only I could win the Lottery, sell my home and start a new life” is the wish of many who long to change their lives. They may want to leave their job and start their own business, or pay for a child’s university education, or a wedding or the deposit on the happy couple’s first home, or to travel round the world, or to retire and maybe emigrate to the sunshine.
The big life changes many people dream of are varied, but they all have in common the need for large sums of money to enable them to happen.
Relying on a Lottery win is extraordinarily unrealistic, but nowadays raising substantial funds through other, more conventional, means is not easy either. Mainstream lenders are much less eager to lend than a few years ago. Funding for small businesses is expensive and time-consuming to obtain, especially if the business is new. Personal loans for things like weddings, education, re-training or career breaks, or that round-the-world adventure, are hard to secure and expensive to service. People approaching retirement may well find great difficulty getting a mortgage, whether they want to relocate to a dream life abroad or simply to downsize at home. Remortgaging a house to raise capital from the equity is almost impossible in today’s financial climate. So for many, the only way of raising funds for big life changes is to sell their home.
This may always have been the plan anyway. Unfortunately, in the present sluggish property market the plan can take far too long. And if a deadline is looming- for a wedding, or retirement, or just an urgent longing to achieve that dream change– a new tactic, to sell the house quickly, may be required.
We at Decision Homebuyers can help with that. We make cash offers that let you sell your house fast – sometimes completing within days – to help fund those massive life changes.
