Selling your home through an Estate Agent and the possibility of becoming involved in a chain can be a stressful, uncertain time consuming experience. 

Our Part Exchange scheme removes the uncertainties of the buying and selling process by offering you a guaranteed sale for your property, which in turn enables you to purchase your new Owl Home, both quickly and smoothly.

There is no charge to make a Part Exchange offer for your home and there is absolutely no obligation to you whatsoever. 

How does Part Exchange work?

Step 1) Choose your new home. Once you have chose the home you would like to buy, we will take a £99 fully refundable valuation fee and pass your details to PX Partnerships.

Step 2) Valuations. You will be contacted by PX Partnerships to organise valuations by two local estate agents and possibly a chartered surveyor. The team may also carry out a home visit. 

Step 3) Offer. We will contact you once we have received the offer for your property and will discuss the figure with you.

Step 4) Decision. If you choose to accept the offer, a survey will be carried out on your property. If you decline the offer, the process ends here with no cost to you and your £99 will be refunded back to you. 

Step 5) Solicitors. Once everything has been agreed, solicitors are instructed to commence the legal process and work towards the exchange date provided by the sales advisor. 

Step 6) Moving. Once you have completed the purchase of your Owl Home, you can choose to move, or take advantage of PX Partnerships free option to remain in in your old home for up to two weeks to help reduce the stress of the moving process.
