Gaffsy is a genuine cash house buyer. Here's how we prove it.
The cash house buying industry has a serious trust problem. Companies start with a high offer to win your business, then chip away at the price throughout the process until you feel too far along to walk away. Some use lock-in contracts that stop you from leaving. Many are not genuine cash buyers at all. They are brokers who pass your details to investors and have no funds of their own.
If you’ve been let down before, or you’re not sure who to trust, here’s exactly how Gaffsy works and why homeowners and landlords trust us for a fast house sale at a guaranteed price.
- Fixed Price Guarantee, the offer we make is the offer you receive
- No lock-in contracts, no cancellation fees, ever

Why trust matters so much in this market
Most cash buying companies make the same promises. Fast sales, no fees, guaranteed offers. The problem is that many are not direct buyers at all. They take your details, find an investor, and act as a go-between while calling themselves the buyer. Others start with a high offer to get you on board, then drop it once you’re too deep in the process to start again.
The result is a market where sellers are right to be careful, and where picking the wrong company can cost you tens of thousands of pounds and months of your time.
“We work in a pretty dark and predatory industry. Our company’s pledge is to not conduct our business like that in any way.”
Oren Kander, Co-founder and Director, Gaffsy
What makes Gaffsy different
-
Fixed Price Guarantee
Once we make you a Formal Fixed Offer it doesn’t change. The price we agree is the price that lands in your account. No reductions. No exceptions.
-
We use our own funds
We’re a genuine direct buyer, not a broker. We buy with our own money. There are no investors to find, no lender approvals to wait for, and nothing going on behind the scenes. It’s how we can complete in as little as 24 hours when you need us to.
-
No lock-ins. No pressure.
You’re never tied in to selling with us. No exclusivity agreements, no cancellation fees, no obligation to proceed at any stage. If your situation changes you can walk away before exchange at zero cost.
-
We cover all your costs
No estate agent fees. No legal fees. No hidden charges. What we offer is what you receive, in full, on completion day.
“There will not be a phone call right before exchange telling you the price has changed. Once we shake hands, that is the number. Not one penny will be deducted.”
Max Royston, Co-founder and Director, Gaffsy

Questions sellers ask us
Are you a genuine cash buyer or a broker?
We’re a genuine direct buyer. We buy with our own funds. There are no third-party investors, no mortgage lenders, and no broker networks involved. That’s how we can guarantee your sale from the moment we agree an offer.
Why is your offer below market value?
All genuine cash buyers offer below full market value, including us. When we buy directly we take on stamp duty, legal fees, any renovation costs, and the risk of reselling. We’re upfront about this from day one. Typically we offer between 80 and 85% of market value in return for a guaranteed sale, a fixed price, and a completion date that suits you.
Will your offer change after the valuation visit?
No. Once we issue a Formal Fixed Offer it’s fixed in writing. We don’t reduce it, renegotiate, or add conditions after that point. What we agree is what you get.
What if I change my mind after accepting the offer?
You can walk away at any point before exchange at zero cost. No cancellation fees, no lock-in agreements, no penalties.
How can I check that Gaffsy is legitimate?
You can check our membership of the National Association of Property Buyers on the NAPB website, our registration with The Property Ombudsman, and our company details on Companies House. We’d encourage you to do that before you proceed.

Do I need my own solicitor?
We instruct and pay for solicitors on your behalf. You’re also welcome to use your own if you prefer. We’ll work with whoever you choose at no extra cost to you.
Can you really complete in 24 hours?
We typically complete in as little as 3 days, and we’ve done 24 hours in exceptional cases. If you need longer, that’s absolutely fine.
What happens if something comes up during the legal process?
We don’t use delays to chip away at our offer. Our solicitors are instructed to move as fast as your circumstances allow. You’ll have a named contact at Gaffsy throughout.
