How it works
What NPB Investor means
A wider choice of buyer, with the same local team looking after you.
We look for a stronger price from an investor buyer we have checked. A higher price is not guaranteed.
We only introduce your property to an investor with your permission, and the buyer is named in writing on your sale memorandum before you’re committed.
Investors can buy with cash or a mortgage. We check their funding, and mortgage purchases take longer.
The 28-day target gives the buyer time to arrange funds. It is counted from when your solicitor has completed the initial checks.
Checked before you meet them
How we vet investors
1
Anti-money-laundering checks
Every investor buyer passes AML checks before we introduce them to you.
2
Proof of funds
We see evidence of how they will pay, whether cash or mortgage, before your property is put forward.
3
A track record with us
We work with investors who have a past working relationship with JBM Property, the company behind NPB.

A completed sale can give a homeowner a way forward and an investor the opportunity to bring an empty property back into use.
*Targets start after your solicitor has completed the initial checks and depend on legal readiness and agreed terms. Mortgage purchases take longer. Dates and a higher price are not guaranteed. †Paid on completion. Terms and conditions apply.

Common questions about NPB Investor
How do you vet investors?
Every investor passes anti-money-laundering checks and shows proof of funds before we introduce them. We work with investors who have a past working relationship with JBM Property.
Does the seller pay anything on the investor route?
No. You get the same contributions as on NPB Direct, including up to £1,500 towards your solicitor, unless your sale memorandum or the agreed terms change that. We take our fee or deposit from the buyer.
Will my details be passed around?
No. We only introduce your property to an investor with your permission, and you know exactly who the buyer is, in writing, before you agree.
Is a higher price guaranteed?
No. NPB Investor is the route where we look for a stronger price, but a higher price is not guaranteed. Your written offer sets out the price, buyer and terms.
What if the investor pulls out?
A committed, checked buyer reduces the risk of a sale falling through, but nobody can guarantee completion. We chase progress weekly and keep you updated, and we can talk about NPB Direct if timing becomes urgent.
