Part Exchange
Part exchange takes the worry away
Part Exchange couldn’t be simpler. When you’ve chosen your perfect property, our Part Exchange team will buy your existing property. So, you can relax knowing that your property sale is guaranteed.
There’s no need to worry about chains, dealing with estate agents, paying their fees or worrying about the sale falling through. Plus, there’s no need to move out and move in all on the same day as you retain access to the property you sell for up to two weeks following completion on your McCarthy Stone property. So, you have the freedom and flexibility to move at your own pace.
It doesn’t even matter if you are ‘downsizing’. We offer a unique opportunity to still part exchange even if your current home is worth more than one of our properties.
Part exchange really is simple and there’s no obligation to except the offer.
How part exchange works
Step 1
You find your perfect McCarthy Stone Property and we refer you to our dedicated Part Exchange team who will independently value your current property
Step 2
When you receive your part exchange offer, we’ll discuss this with you so you can decide if you’re happy to sell. All our Part Exchange valuations are free and there’s no obligation to accept.
Step 3
If you accept the offer, we simply work with your Solicitors to finalise the contracts.
Of course, we can’t guarantee you won’t get a better price for your property on the open market. But many customers find the time, expense, and hassle they save with Part Exchange makes it an attractive option.
Recently used McCarthy Stone Resales for the sale of our apartment at Robert Adam Court in Alnwick. Would thoroughly recommend them to anybody who is thinking of selling – it costs a bit more than if you use a local estate agent, but is worth it for a) the wider access to the target market for these apartments through their network, and b) the specific knowledge and expertise of the House Manager. In our case Philip, the Manager at Robert Adam Court, was extremely helpful and played an important part in the sale process. Many thanks.
Robert Adam Court, Alnwick
“I would particularly like to thank House Manager, Gillian Wright at Grove Court, not only for her help during the sale process, but her dedication to her role during the five years my mother lived at Grove Court. I would also like to thank Brendan Mann for his help with negotiating the sale of the property. I would highly recommend McCarthy Stone Resales.”
Mr Smith, Grove Court
“The resales team have done a brilliant job in finding me a purchaser at a sensible selling price. I am very happy with the service I received and believe that the teams specialist knowledge about the intricacies of retirement living along with a client base of people interested in this particular type of property has led to a successful outcome all
round. Thank you so much for all your help.”
Carolyn Chapman, Rowleys Court

Mr and Mrs Clarke, Homeowners, Walsall
“We are very lucky to be very active and able to do things we love in life. We’re regularly off on holiday. We have nothing to worry about now as we can lock up and leave knowing our apartment is part of this fabulous development with 24-hour security.”
Mr and Mrs Fleming, Homeowners, Anstruther
“Lifestyle Living apartments are absolutely perfect for those looking to downsize with no other requirements. We’re living as independently as we always did, but now with much more flexibility and fun!”
Mr and Mrs Hale, Homeowners
“It’s fantastic to see everyone come together and join in with the celebrations, the residents have enjoyed it immensely (especially the margaritas!) It’s occasions such as these that truly demonstrate the vibrancy of our retirement communities.”
Allison Crews-Orchard, House Manager
“I’ve always been a sociable person, so it’s lovely that there are always other people around and lots of activities to get involved in, like the coffee mornings, film nights, and of course, the art classes. There is always something going on at the development.”
Mrs Hampton, Homeowner, Poundbury
“I’d 100 per cent recommend downsizing into a McCarthy Stone property – you won’t look back.”
Dermot and Sue Bradley, Homeowners
“Living here is so fantastic because we are completely independent with the added bonus of getting together with other homeowners as and when we want to.”
