He sold an estate at Kilburn in 1664, two estates in Harlesden in 1665–1666 and 1671, and he was preparing to pay his debts by selling Oxgate when he died in 1688. The family seat of Neasden House he never sold, but mortgaged it so recklessly that it passed into the temporary possession of the mortgagee. He was succeeded in the baronetcy by his son, also called William. (en)
