A company which launched as a chain-breaking quick buy service in April says it’s now extending its service to tenanted properties.

Bettermove says the initiative is to take advantage of landlords quitting the private rental sector, in response to growing legal and regulatory red tape.

The firm says it will consider a single buy-to-let property, multiple units or an entire portfolio.

The service includes property appraisal, sale strategy, direct purchase options, investor sourcing, access to a network of vetted buyers, sales progression, and liaison with solicitors and all relevant parties.

A spokesperson says: “Evolving legislation has prompted more landlords to review their portfolios and reconsider their long‑term plans. Many are now seeking a more discreet route to sale, particularly where tenants remain in occupation. 

“Off-market transactions can provide greater privacy while minimising disruption for all parties involved. It also provides a clear route to sell that allows landlords to continue receiving rental income right up until completion while giving them greater clarity around timescales.

“Many want to sell responsibly, and the growing regulatory and cost pressures are prompting those conversations earlier. Properties can often be sold with tenants remaining in place, allowing landlords to release capital while providing continuity for tenants.”
