Not with open for offer: we hold no listing, and can't see whether it's advertised elsewhere.
How the queue works
A home doesn't have to be advertised for its owner to decide to sell. You join its queue, which shows when you joined and never who you are. If the owner claims the home here, they see that someone registered, and when.
How we work
How does open for offer actually work?
Roughly 1.2 million UK homes change hands each year, out of about25 million. Every portal shows you that 5%. We work with the other 95% — homes whose owners have not listed, and in most cases have not been asked.
How a sale starts
Buyer verifies their interest
A buyer registers interest. It is not an offer and commits them to nothing.
Homeowner claims the property
The homeowner claims the home for free and sees anonymised demand. Ownership is self-declared; we have not checked it against the title.
Both parties consent to connect
A conversation only starts when the buyer and the homeowner each agree to it.
Viewings and conveyancing then proceed as in any sale.
From here the sale proceeds like any other, at both parties’ pace.
Registering interest or claiming a property commits neither party to anything.
