Q:  How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: When evaluating your property, our approach is transparent and methodical. We consider several critical factors: the property’s location, necessary repairs, its current state, and the selling prices of similar homes nearby. It’s well-known that property values have significantly changed over the past five years, and many areas are still recovering. By integrating all these details, we ensure the price we offer is not only fair to us but also beneficial to you. Our goal is to guide you through this process smoothly, ensuring that both parties achieve a successful and satisfactory outcome.

Q:  How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Unlike real estate agents who list your property and wait for potential buyers, we operate differently. Real estate agents might show your home to prospective buyers over an average period of 6-12 months and charge a commission of 3-6% of the sale price. This is a suitable option for those who can afford to wait and are willing to pay part of their sale price in commissions. However, at our company, we stand out by directly purchasing homes rather than listing them. We are professional home buyers, not agents. We offer a rapid, all-cash purchase process, often making decisions to buy within a few days or even on the same day. This method eliminates the uncertainty and lengthy waiting periods associated with traditional selling. We invest our own funds to buy and repair houses, then take on the challenge of marketing them in a tough market. Our approach removes any financial burdens from you, the seller, such as repair costs and prolonged market exposure, allowing you to walk away with cash and without any further obligations. If you’re looking for a quick, efficient, and straightforward way to sell your house, we offer the perfect solution that bypasses the traditional hurdles of selling through an agent.
