Frequently asked questions
We’ve answered some of your burning questions, below:
What will happen to my tenants? One of the real positives of selling your property with a sitting tenant is the ability to lengthen the tenant's stay indefinitely. Almost all of Portolio's sales are to property investors and this new owner will become the landlord, with little or no change to the tenant's situation.
What sale price will I be able to get by selling with my tenants in situ? Our typical sale price is close to - but slightly above - the surveyor's property valuation. We aim for fairness, and we’ll always endeavour to get you the best sale price possible.
Do I need to remove any furniture or redecorate? In a word; no. Selling tenanted property means you don't have any of this hassle or expense. When a property investor buys a tenanted property, they are also bound to buy the furniture, fittings and equipment - and take the property as is, with no need to get it ‘market-ready’. It's actually one of the positives for the buyer, as any furniture, fittings and equipment are included in their purchase price.
Do you sell property portfolios? Yes, we sell individual properties and portfolios of different sizes. All of our portfolio sales are sold off-market, i.e. not on any website, and sometimes we can sell an individual flat or house in that same off-market style.
