A first-time buy made possible

Clients: Amina & Reza, Sheffield
Scenario: Priced out of the market
Result: Bought off-market below asking price

“We thought we’d have to rent another year — but Bettermove found us a place no one else could. They even helped with the legal process.”

Amina and Reza were struggling to find a home within their budget in a red-hot market. After months of rising rents and missed opportunities, a friend referred them to Bettermove. We matched them with an off-market probate flat – not yet publicly listed – at a price significantly below the going rate.

To move forward with certainty and prevent gazumping, they paid a small exclusivity deposit, locking in the deal and giving both parties confidence to proceed. That peace of mind was crucial for first-time buyers unsure of what to expect.

Bettermove guided them every step of the way, recommending solicitors and simplifying the legal process. We also paid the seller’s legal fees, ensuring the entire transaction stayed affordable and stress-free.
