My Homebuyers in the Press
My Homebuyers has been featured in the national press, with our experience as a cash house buyer helping journalists covering the quick house sale market, property issues and the way cash buyers operate.
We’re happy to speak to journalists looking for practical insight or comment on the cash house buying industry, and we aim to respond to media enquiries on the same working day.

Independent reviews of our service
Beyond press coverage, our service has been independently reviewed. You can read verified customer reviews on our Trustpilot profile, and Property Investment Project — an independent property blog — published its own assessment of My Homebuyers after comparing the sector. We link to these because we’d rather you read what others say about us than take our word for it.
What we can help journalists with
We provide comment, background and data for stories on the cash house buying sector. Kelvin Elliott, our founder, is available for interview and comment on:
- How the quick house sale market really works — what genuine cash buyers pay (we publish our range: 80% of market value), and the tactics sellers should watch for
- Non-standard construction properties — BISF, Airey, Cornish Unit, Wates, Wimpey No-Fines and Laing Easiform homes, and why mortgage lenders decline them
- Problem property sales — Japanese knotweed, spray foam insulation, subsidence, short leases and unmortgageable homes
- Repossessions, probate sales and broken chains — what sellers under time pressure can actually do
- Consumer protection in an unregulated sector — how to verify a cash buyer, and where the industry falls short
We respond to journalist enquiries the same working day, and faster on deadline. If a question is outside what we know, we’ll say so and point you to someone better placed.
Our spokesperson
Kelvin Elliott has 20 years’ experience buying residential property for cash across England and Wales, with a particular specialism in non-standard construction and properties mainstream lenders decline. We have been quoted in The Times and The Independent. A full profile and photo are on his page: About Kelvin Elliott.

About My Homebuyers
My Homebuyers is a genuine cash house buying company based in Chester, buying properties across England and Wales since 2016. We buy with our own funds and typically pay around 80% of full market value, with no fees for our service, including valuation, survey and legal costs.
We buy properties in all sorts of circumstances, from straightforward sales where a seller simply wants greater certainty and control over the process, to properties that can be more difficult to sell through the conventional market, including non-standard construction, Japanese knotweed, spray foam insulation and subsidence.
