How do we sell your home for free?
How Purplebricks can sell your home for free
You might be thinking that selling for free sounds too good to be true — it isn’t.
We put transparency at the heart of everything we do, so we’re more than happy to tell you how we make money (and how we can sell your home for free, of course). Here’s what you need to know.
We include the in-person house valuation, negotiation, listing on a major portal and an app that lets you control your listing, viewings, and more. Oh, and we’ll still be by your side — with a team of experts, every step of the way. So thousands of our customers really do sell their homes without paying a penny.
Phillip sold his home with our sister company Strike. Here’s what he had to say about selling for free.
“ Excellent service, brilliant communication from the start. I still can't believe that it's free … I had 14 viewings in 2 weeks and every one of them put an offer in.”
And of course, we can’t forget Carl from Doncaster:
“They sold my house within 2 weeks completely free of charge! Thank you.”
You’re welcome, Carl.
So it really is free. And that’s the same free service we offer at Purplebricks — an excellent service, with brilliant communication from the start. (Phillip’s words, of course.)
What if estate agents told you what you’re actually paying for and let you choose which services you wanted to use? Well, that’s exactly what we do.
Unlike traditional agents, we’re fully transparent about what little extras we offer and where your money is going — so it really is your choice. When our agent speaks to you, they’ll talk you through the options, and then you can decide if it’s right for you. Maybe you just want to add a Premium Rightmove listing, maybe you want a whole package with hosted viewings. Either way, we’ve got you covered.

As with every home move with every agent, there are required anti-money laundering checks — and there may be legal fees attached. We’ll always be upfront about that, too.
We have access to market-leading mortgage deals — we’re really proud of our mortgage services — and if you take a mortgage through Purplebricks, then we get a referral fee from the lender. This is how almost all mortgage brokers earn a fee, we just like to be upfront about it. (Revolutionary, we know.)
We also take a referral fee if you use one of our conveyancing partners — they take care of the legal side of buying and selling your home.
Don’t want our mortgage advice? Have your own conveyancer? Great. We’ll still sell your home for free. The choice really is yours.
Find the right mortgage deal.
We’re really transparent on this point: we make more money from potential buyers than we do from our home sellers.
How do buyers help us earn money? Just like with sellers, we work with buyers to help them find the right mortgage deal and we also offer them our conveyancing services. We get a referral fee if they work with our partners, but it’s completely up to the buyers who they use.
We’re sure to provide a great service — because maybe they’ll list a home with us one day. (And because great service is just the right thing to do, isn’t it?)
We’re proud of how we sell homes and how we make money. Not only do we believe it’s a fairer, more transparent way to sell homes — it also means we can sell your home for free.
