Forced Sale vs Landlord Exit

Why downsizers are choosing to protect their equity instead of accepting a loss

Selling to Downsize

  • Accept a lower price to sell quickly
  • Estate agent fees reduce your downsizing budget
  • Chain collapses delay your move for months
  • Capital gains tax if it's a rental property
  • Stress of selling and buying simultaneously
  • Risk of being stuck between two mortgages

Landlord Exit

  • Full equity protected — no selling at a loss
  • Zero fees — more money for your new home
  • No chain — we deal directly with you
  • Tax-efficient structure available
  • Move at your own pace without pressure
  • We take over mortgage payments on your current property

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Landlord Exit help with downsizing in Exeter?+

We take over your current property through a lease option agreement. This means we handle your mortgage payments, property management, and all costs across the EX postcode area (EX1, EX2, EX3, EX4). You're free to move to a smaller property without the stress of selling first. We cover areas including Heavitree, St Thomas, Pinhoe.
