Chainfree property stress-free moving partner

The Chainfree process

Traditional estate agency runs on intuition and urgency. Ours is built on preparation, structure, and transparency.

Step one: Agree target move dates, marketing plan and pricing strategy.

Step two: Collate all legal and property due diligence.

Step three: Property launch and viewings.

Step four: Find a buyer and agree the move date.

Step five: Move!

Why do things differently?

In 2024, 30% of property transactions fell through.


And over the last 10 years, the time between accepting an offer and actually moving home has increased by 38%.*

Too many sales fall apart. Too many moves take too long.

At Chainfree, we prepare all the information you and your buyers could need, upfront. Legal due diligence, searches, and a HomeBuyers Survey are all commissioned before your home goes to market, so your sale is smooth, stress-free, and certain.

We prepare your home properly, so serious buyers feel confident and your sale keeps moving. With experience across both estate agency and building surveying, we’re here to guide your move from preparation through to completion.

Results you can expect:

Sales complete faster

Buyers feel confident

Nick Stops, Founder & Managing Director

My career began in Central London, where I spent ten years working across both premium estate agencies and ambitious prop‑tech start‑ups. Those years gave me a front‑row seat to the realities of the property market — the excitement, the pressure, and, too often, the disappointment when sales fell through. I saw buyers left disheartened, sellers left waiting, and transactions collapsing for reasons that could have been avoided with better preparation.

That frustration became a turning point. I retrained as a Building Surveyor, determined to understand property from the inside out. While studying building pathology, I kept a close eye on the sales market and the slow pace of industry change. It became clear that the traditional model wasn’t just outdated — it was fundamentally flawed.

Drawing on my estate agency background and my technical surveying expertise, I set out to create a smarter, more reliable way to sell property. Inspired by the upfront‑preparation models used in Scotland and across the Nordic countries, I built a process that tackles legal due diligence, documentation, and property condition before a home ever reaches the market.

My goal is to fix the weak points in property transactions and make the entire experience less stressful for everyone involved.

Today, I help sellers and buyers move with clarity, confidence, and far fewer surprises — and I’m proud to put preparation, transparency, and professionalism first.
