Commercial property and land can involve different questions from a house sale. The use, access, ownership and any leases all help establish what a buyer can consider.

Our main focus is homes across Greater Manchester, but SellHouseFaster can review some smaller commercial properties and land. Tell us what you own and where it is. If it is suitable, we’ll make a cash offer within 24 hours of receiving the relevant details. A direct buyer purchases the property if you proceed, subject to the necessary checks.

Commercial property and land we can review


  • Shops and mixed-use buildings

    Tell us about the retail space, any accommodation above and whether the parts are owned or let separately. Include the rent and lease details where applicable.


  • Small units and workshops

    Share the size, current use, condition and occupation of the building. Garages and lock-ups can also be submitted for a suitability review.


  • Yards and plots of land

    Provide the location, approximate area, access arrangements and any planning history. A planning application is not needed simply to enquire.


  • Inherited commercial property

    Tell us who owns the property and the estate’s current position. The solicitor must confirm the authority and documents needed for a sale.

Information that helps us assess an offer

  • Title and access. Share ownership information, rights of way and any restrictions you know about.
  • Occupation and leases. Include tenant details, rent, lease terms, arrears and relevant notices.
  • Planning and current use. Provide permissions, refusals, conditions and any proposed change of use.
  • Condition and site history. Disclose structural issues, asbestos reports, contamination concerns and previous uses.
  • VAT and other liabilities. Ask your accountant and solicitor to confirm the treatment of the sale before committing.
  • Clear sale costs. On completion, we cover the seller’s conveyancing fees and disbursements, with no selling fee payable to us.

When a specialist route may be more suitable

Large commercial sites, operating businesses and complex developments may need a specialist commercial agent or buyer. We’ll explain if the property falls outside the scope we can consider.

Compare the offer with specialist marketing
A specialist agent may reach buyers willing to pay more for a particular building or site. Compare the likely price, marketing costs and timing with our offer. Suitability does not mean that planning, environmental or legal checks can be skipped.

Questions about commercial property and land

Do you consider commercial property as well as houses?

Our main focus is homes, but we can review some smaller shops, units, mixed-use buildings and land. Send the details so we can confirm whether it is suitable.

Can I enquire about land without planning permission?

Yes. Provide the planning history, current use and access details. Suitability and the offer depend on the site; we cannot guarantee acceptance or future permission.

Can a business tenant remain in place?

A sale subject to an existing lease may be possible. The buyer and solicitors need to review the lease, rent, obligations and any outstanding issues.

Will VAT be charged on the sale?

VAT treatment depends on the property and transaction, including any relevant option to tax and whether transfer-of-a-going-concern rules apply. Ask your accountant and solicitor to confirm the position before agreeing terms.

What if there are unpaid business rates?

Contact the council about the balance and liability dates. Selling does not automatically cancel existing debts. Ask your solicitor how occupation and completion affect the arrangements.

Can you review asbestos, contamination or access problems?

You can submit the details and existing reports. These issues may require specialist investigation and can affect the offer or whether a buyer can proceed.

Can I request an offer for inherited commercial property?

Yes. Tell us the estate’s position. Your solicitor must confirm the authority to sell and any grant or other documents required before completion.

Which costs do you cover?

On a completed sale, we cover the seller’s conveyancing fees and disbursements and charge no selling fee. Taxes, mortgages, business debts and separate specialist or accounting advice are not included.

How long does completion take?

Commercial property can require specialist checks and lease or title work. The 24-hour promise relates to the offer for a suitable property, not completion. A realistic sale timetable is agreed after assessment.

Tell us about the building or land you want to sell

Share the location, property type and current use. We’ll explain whether it is suitable for an offer and what would be needed to take it further.
