Frequently Asked Questions

What is a fall-through rate?
The percentage of agreed sales (Sold STC) that collapse before completing. We calculate this by monitoring when properties go from "Sold STC" back to "For Sale" or disappear. The UK average is around 28%.
How do you track this data?
We monitor all property listings across major portals daily. When an agent marks a property as Sold STC and it later reappears as For Sale, that's recorded as a fall-through. We've been collecting data for over 12 months.
What does "Request Protection" do?
We contact the estate agent on your behalf and ask them to activate PurchaseSecured. Your deposit will be held securely in FCA-regulated Stripe account, protecting both you and the seller. It's completely free for the agent.
How much does it cost me?
Checking agent data is free. If the agent activates, a reservation fee the funds are held securely — this fee woul be a buyers premium ontop of your purchase price. We find offering a buyers fee often results in a cheaper offer being agreed due to the security it comes with and peace of mind for all parties.
What if my agent refuses?
Many agents activate within 48 hours because their own buyer is asking. If they don't, we can help you find a safer agent in the same area, or continue outreach on your behalf.
Is the stripe account secure?
Yes. All funds are held securely unti the property completes or the agreed timescale to purchase has finished. You are protected in the event the prtoperty had undisclosred issues that causes all finance to be refused, or if the seller withdraws or agent goes bankrupt in this event you will be automatically fully refunded.
