Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do you list houses or buy them outright?
A: We want to buy your house. We are not trying to list your house. If your house meets our buying criteria, then we'll quickly give you a fair cash offer to purchase your property.
We have licensed agents on our team. And they can list your house if that is what you're looking for. However, we are looking to buy houses with cash. Using cash enables us to buy your house fast because we do not have to go ask a bank for a loan. Banks are slow.
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: If we did not pay a fair price, then no one would ever sell us their house. Many of the houses we buy need some repairs or updating. And our crew will take care of all the fixing, repairing, or remodeling.
If your place needs thousands in repairs, we will not be able to give you top dollar. But we can give you a fair and reasonable offer. Then you can decide if our offer works for you and your situation. We want to craft an offer that will meet your needs.
Q: How do you determine a property's value and how much you will be able to offer?
A: We have to look at where the house is located. Then we have to see what repairs are needed if any. What is the current condition of the property? What are the values of comparable houses recently sold in the neighborhood?
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to us. We'll make you an offer, and if it's a fit, then we'll buy your house (and we'll often pay for the closing costs, too!). No hassle. No fees.
We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we're taking all of the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not; once we buy the house from you, the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments, and often with cash in your hand).
Q: How are you different from realtors or other companies?
A: We offer options. We know that one method of selling isn't applicable in all situations. We understand the local market and the need to give people faster ways to sell their property. Many people don't realize the options available!
Agents list their properties and hope that someone will come to buy the house and can be approved for a loan to buy it. That process may take 2 months, or it could take over 12 months.
On the other hand, since we can give you an all-cash offer in 1-2 days to buy your house, we can close in as little as 5 days. Most real estate agents think that is impossible. Since we pay with cash, we can close without needing a bank's approval.
Brokers and agents will charge you a commission. But we will not charge you any fees or commissions. We make money later after we buy houses and repair them or update them.
We make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, repair the house, and market the house ourselves to find a buyer or hold it for years. And you get to walk away from closing with no more stress.
