Selling your house fast in Cardiff means a free cash offer within 24 hours and completion in as little as 7 days – with no estate-agent fees, no legal fees and no viewings.
We are Property Buyers Wales, a genuine cash buyer buying homes right across the Welsh capital – from Victorian terraces in Canton and Grangetown to student houses in Cathays and Roath and leasehold apartments in Cardiff Bay. Because we buy with our own funds there is no chain, no mortgage lender to wait on and no sale collapsing at the last minute.
You will not get full market value – no genuine cash buyer pays that – but you will get certainty, speed and a price that does not change between the offer and the day the money lands in your account.
As the capital, Cardiff has the deepest and most competitive property market in Wales – but depth does not mean speed. A Victorian terrace in Canton, a student HMO in Cathays, a leasehold apartment in the Bay and an ex-council house in Ely each face their own drawn-out route to sale.
The average Cardiff home sold for around £271,000 in early 2026, up 1.8% on the year. Flats average nearer £165,000 while detached homes sit closer to £455,000, and cash buyers paid an average of around £254,000. Whatever your postcode, a cash sale removes the two things that slow Cardiff sales most – mortgage approvals and searches.

People come to us at all sorts of moments, and often with the kind of property a high-street sale struggles with. These are the situations we see most across Cardiff.
Service charges, ground rent and cladding or EWS1 paperwork can stall a normal sale for months. We buy leasehold apartments in the Bay and Butetown as they are.
We buy tenanted student houses mid-tenancy, so you do not need to wait for the property to be empty or serve notice first.
Period homes in Canton, Grangetown, Splott and Adamsdown that need updating before an agent would list them well.
Homes in Ely, Llanrumney and Trowbridge – including non-standard construction lenders often refuse.
Empty properties in Rhiwbina, Whitchurch and Llanishen that families would rather sell quickly and cleanly.
Buy-to-lets across the city sold with tenants in situ – we handle the Renting Homes (Wales) Act side for you.
A below-market cash offer sounds worse than it is, because the "full price" on the open market is never the amount you keep. Here is a like-for-like example on a typical £271,000 Cardiff home. The headline gap is real, but far smaller once you count the months of costs and the risk of the sale falling through.
| Estate AgentsSold in about 7 months | Property Buyers WalesSold in as little as 7 days | |
|---|---|---|
| Agreed price | £258,000 (after negotiation) | £211,380 (78% offer) |
| Estate-agent fee (1.5% + VAT) | −£4,644 | £0 |
| Legal / conveyancing | −£1,200 | £0 (we cover it) |
| About 7 months mortgage, bills & council tax | −£9,750 | £0 |
| Repairs / prep to sell | −£1,500 | £0 |
| In your pocket | about £240,906 | £211,380 |
| When | 7 months, if it does not fall through | 7 to 28 days, guaranteed |
The real gap here is about £29,526, and we will not pretend otherwise. But the agent figure assumes the sale completes (around one in three does not), that you can carry the property for seven months, and that you want the viewings and the chain. For a seller who needs it done, that certainty is often worth more than the difference.
You do not need to fix, clean, clear or stage anything. We regularly buy homes that need full renovation, tired student HMOs, leasehold flats with cladding or short-lease issues, empty and probate properties, and homes that have already failed to sell on the open market.
If other buyers or their surveyors have said no – a common story with a short lease in the Bay or a tenanted house in Cathays – we are very often the ones who say yes.
