Sell your Hulme house fast for cash.
Hulme was rebuilt twice in fifty years — 1990s houses, modern apartments and crescents sit side by side, and each carries different sale complications from short leases to cladding questions. We buy any Hulme property for cash.
Hulme property market
Hulme's housing is almost entirely modern: after the 1960s deck-access crescents were demolished, the area was rebuilt in the 1990s with low-rise houses and flats, followed by 2000s apartment schemes along the Chester Road and city-centre fringe. That history creates distinct sale problems. Some of the 1990s and 2000s blocks carry cladding, fire-safety or EWS1 issues that make flats unmortgageable pending remediation; others have ground-rent clauses that doubled and now breach lender criteria. The 1990s houses sell well but survey issues around flat roofs and original windows are emerging as the stock ages. Hulme's location — walking distance to the universities and centre — keeps demand strong, but only from buyers who can actually proceed.

Hulme FAQs
My Hulme flat cannot be mortgaged because of the EWS1 position. Will you buy it?
Yes. Building-safety and EWS1 issues are among the most common reasons Manchester flat owners come to us — we do not need a lender, and the issue is reflected in the price rather than blocking the sale.
Do you buy flats with doubling ground rents?
Yes. Problematic ground-rent clauses deter mortgage lenders; they do not stop a cash purchase.
Can you buy my buy-to-let with the tenant still in?
Yes. The tenancy transfers to us and rent continues to completion.
