Sell your apartment quickly
If you need to sell your apartment quickly, start with two dates: when do you need the money and when can you hand over the property? KinnisvaraKokkuost buys apartments directly from owners. Send the property details and your preferred timeline so we can assess the purchase and prepare an offer. Requesting an offer does not commit you to sell.

When is a quick apartment sale suitable?
A direct sale may suit you if an agreed timeline matters, you want to avoid repeated viewings or you do not want to organise repairs before selling. Describe your goal and the apartment’s condition in your first enquiry. If there is no urgency and you want to test the highest achievable market price, compare direct purchase with selling independently or through an estate agent.
How does a quick sale work?
1. Property details and timing
Send the address, floor area, number of rooms, condition and photos if available. Include your asking price or tell us you would like an offer without specifying a price. Mention any fixed transaction or moving date at the outset.
2. Indicative offer and inspection
We can provide an initial assessment from your description. We clarify missing information and arrange an inspection where needed. A price discussed from photos is not automatically final: we check the property’s condition and relevant circumstances before confirming it.
3. Price, costs and the notarial transaction
Before the transaction, we agree on the purchase price, allocation of costs, payment terms and handover date. The notary clarifies the contract and required documents. Allow time to read the contract and ask for explanations of anything unclear.
4. Receipt of funds and apartment handover
Payment follows the terms agreed in the contract. Signing the notarial contract, receiving funds and handing over the keys do not necessarily happen at the same time. Record meter readings, keys, items left in the apartment and its condition in a handover record.
Can an apartment be sold in five days?
Five days is a target, not an unconditional guarantee for every property. A quick transaction requires agreed terms, the necessary documents and an available notary appointment. Bank coordination, unfinished succession proceedings, disagreements between owners or missing documents may extend the timeline.
Ask for separate confirmation of the initial response time, notarial transaction date, conditions for receiving funds and the date you must vacate the apartment. Clarify when the timeline starts and whether it refers to working days or calendar days.
How does speed affect the apartment price?
A quick-sale offer may be lower than a price achievable over a longer selling period. A direct buyer considers the apartment’s condition, work needed, resale time and risks. There is no sensible universal discount percentage: compare actual offers for your apartment.
Compare the price alongside costs you would bear: estate agent fees, preparation or repairs, utilities and loan payments while waiting, and agreed transaction costs. Not every sale involves all these costs. Consider how much you will retain after meeting the agreed obligations.
What should you prepare for an offer?
- Address, floor area, rooms, floor and photos; known defects and alterations.
- Recent utility bills and information on apartment association loans and planned work.
- Information on owners, mortgages, debts and existing tenancy agreements.
- Preferred transaction and moving dates; a list of items to remain in the apartment.
You do not need a complete document file for the first enquiry. Send the information you have and identify anything still to be checked. Do not attach identity document copies or bank statements to your initial website enquiry. Confirm the documents required for the transaction with the notary.
When additional issues need to be resolved
Tell us at the outset if the apartment has a mortgage, debts, tenants or was inherited. This helps account for necessary coordination and avoid an unrealistic timeline. These circumstances need individual assessment rather than an automatic promise of a five-day sale.
Questions about a quick apartment sale
Do I need to renovate before selling?
You can request an offer for an unrenovated apartment. Describe its condition accurately and include photos. Before undertaking expensive work, consider whether the potential price increase covers the cost and time.
Do I have to move out immediately?
The date you vacate the apartment is agreed separately. If you need time to move after the transaction, say so before accepting the offer. A later handover and its conditions require agreement with the buyer.
Does requesting an offer commit me to sell?
No. Requesting an offer lets you compare the price and terms. Before signing any documents, make sure you understand the obligations they create.
Is a purchase offer the same as a valuation report?
No. A purchase offer states a particular buyer’s terms. If a bank or another party requires a valuation report, confirm its requirements separately.
