Northampton and the East Midlands · Direct with owners

We are the buyer,
not your agent.

That distinction matters more than anything else on this page. We are buying for ourselves, which means our interests and yours are not the same — so get your own solicitor and your own valuation.

How it works

How we buy

Survey before offering, make one honest offer, tell you to take your own advice, and complete at the price agreed.

A direct conversation

What you want from the sale, and by when.

Survey and cost first

So the offer does not move later.

Written offer with reasoning

Including what we think it needs spending on.

Your own advice

Your solicitor and your valuation. Always.

How we work

A Northampton company buying for itself

MIH Property One Ltd is a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 11742531, incorporated in December 2018, with its registered office at 13 Bridge Street, Northampton NN1 1NH.

We are not an estate agent under the Estate Agents Act 1979 — we do not act for sellers, market other people's property or take commission. We buy for our own account, which means our interests are genuinely not the same as a seller's, and the right response to that is to take independent legal advice and get your own valuation. We are not FCA authorised, we accept no investor funds, and we offer no bonds, shares or investment opportunities of any kind.

Frequently asked

The questions we get most

Are you estate agents?

No. We are the buyer. An agent works for the seller and earns commission; we are the other side of the table, and you should treat us accordingly.

Will I get market value?

Usually not the full figure a long open-market sale might achieve. What you get instead is certainty, speed and no fees or viewings. Whether that trade is worth it is your decision, with your own valuation in hand.

Will you drop the price before exchange?

That is the practice we are trying not to be. We survey and cost before offering so the figure holds, and the only reason it would move is something genuinely undisclosed.

Can I invest with you?

No. We use our own capital, take no investor funds and offer no bonds or shares. Nothing on this site is an invitation to invest.

Do I need a solicitor?

Yes, your own, and we will keep saying so. Never use a solicitor recommended by the person buying your house.

The property is in poor condition. Is that a problem?

It is usually the reason people call us. We buy as it stands — no clearing, no repairs, no making it presentable first.

Got a property to sell?

A direct conversation, no commission, and an honest view on whether an agent would serve you better.
