Selling a rental property does not always mean making it vacant first. A sale with tenants in place may be possible, depending on the tenancy, the property and the buyer’s requirements.

SellHouseFaster makes cash offers for rental properties across Greater Manchester. Tell us about the condition, rent and tenancy, and we’ll make an offer within 24 hours of receiving the details. If you decide to proceed, a direct buyer purchases the property, with solicitors handling the sale and the necessary tenancy arrangements.

When you’re ready to sell your rental property


  • Reviewing the return

    Mortgage costs, maintenance and other expenses can change what a property earns. An offer gives you a starting point for comparing a sale with continuing to let it.


  • Reducing management responsibilities

    Repairs, paperwork and day-to-day decisions can take more time than you want to spend. Whether you manage the property yourself or use an agent, you can explore selling without committing to it.


  • Considering your tenants

    You may want to sell while allowing the tenants to remain. Share the tenancy details so that option can be assessed before you make plans to end the tenancy.


  • Changing your investment plans

    You might be retiring, moving away or reducing the number of properties you own. Tell us whether you want to sell one rental or discuss several.

What we consider when making your offer

  • The property and its condition. Tell us about the house or flat, any repairs needed and known issues.
  • The tenancy and rental income. Share the agreement, current rent and whether payments are up to date.
  • Deposits and supporting records. Deposit protection details and relevant documents help the buyer and solicitors assess the sale.
  • Licensing and compliance. Let us know about HMO or other licensing requirements, certificates and outstanding matters.
  • Your preferred timing. Share any deadlines so a realistic timetable can be discussed.
  • The next steps and costs. We’ll explain the offer and any conditions. On a completed sale, we cover the seller’s conveyancing fees and disbursements, with no selling fee payable to us.

Compare the offer with your other selling options
A cash offer may be lower than the price achievable through an estate agent. The tenancy, rental income and condition can affect the property’s value and buyer interest. Compare the likely proceeds, timing and responsibilities involved in each route before deciding.

Questions about selling a tenanted property

Can I sell my property with tenants still living there?

Yes, a sale with tenants in place may be possible. Share the tenancy agreement, rent and property details so we can assess an offer and discuss the buyer’s requirements. A change of ownership does not itself end a tenancy.

Do I need to give my tenants notice before requesting an offer?

No. You do not need to end the tenancy simply to request an offer. If you are considering seeking possession, get advice on the rules that apply to your tenancy before taking action.

Should I tell the tenants I’m considering selling?

Discuss communication and any legal notice requirements with your solicitor or managing agent. Access for inspections or viewings must respect the tenants’ rights and the applicable tenancy arrangements.

Can I request an offer if the tenant is in rent arrears?

Yes. Tell us how much is outstanding, how long it has been owed and whether any repayment arrangements or proceedings exist. Arrears will be considered when assessing the offer and whether the buyer can proceed.

What happens to rent on completion?

The sale documents should set out how rent is apportioned between the seller and buyer. Tell your solicitor about payments received, arrears and any rent paid in advance so the figures can be agreed correctly.

What happens to the tenant’s deposit?

The solicitors and relevant deposit scheme should confirm how the deposit and protection arrangements are handled when the landlord changes. Provide the protection records and details of any deductions or disputes.

Can you consider an HMO or licensed property?

You can submit the details for review. Include the current licence, occupancy and any outstanding conditions or council correspondence. Licensing requirements and the buyer’s ability to comply must be checked before proceeding.

Can I sell a property owned by a limited company?

You can request an offer for a company-owned property. Tell us how it is owned so the legal requirements can be assessed. Your accountant should advise on the tax consequences before you commit to a sale.

Can I discuss selling more than one rental property?

Yes. Share the locations, tenancy details and condition of each property. Our property portfolio page explains how to enquire about several properties.

Which costs do you cover?

There is no fee to request an offer and no selling fee payable to us. On a completed sale, we cover the seller’s solicitor or conveyancer fees and disbursements for the property sale. Outstanding mortgages, taxes, managing-agent charges and separate tenancy disputes are not included in these sale legal costs.

How quickly can the sale complete?

We make your offer within 24 hours of receiving the property and tenancy details. Completion depends on the buyer’s checks, the tenancy documentation and legal work. Share your preferred timing when you enquire.
