Firstly, let’s understand what selling a house for cash means.  When a homeowner sells their house for cash, they skip the traditional process of listing that property with a real estate agent.  No cleaning, no repairs, no lengthy closing process.  Instead, that homeowner sells directly to a professional cash buyer, who purchases properties as-is, and closes whenever the homeowner wants—sometimes in as little as a week!

            We’ll be blunt:  this approach is not for everyone.  But it can be a perfect solution for those who need to sell their property fast.  What are the advantages?

• SPEED: you can close much faster, because there is no waiting for mortgage approval.  The transaction is often done in a matter of days or weeks, not months.
• CONVENIENCE: experienced home buyers typically purchase a property in its current condition.  This can save a ton of time and effort that homeowners would typically spend to prepare a house for showings.  If cashflow is tight, selling directly to an investor means homeowners can skip ALL of the repairs.
• CERTAINTY and SIMPLICITY: unlike traditional sales, once the contract is signed, professional homebuyers rarely fall through

However, when considering a cash sale, it is important to evaluate your unique situation and goals.  We want to be clear that selling for cash usually means accepting a slightly lower offer than you would receive on the conventional real estate market.  Cash buyers take into account factors like repair costs, market conditions, time of year and other possible properties before they make an offer on your property.  Here are some questions to ask yourself:

• Do you truly need to sell your house quickly due to divorce, relocation, financial constraints, major life transition, inherited property that doesn’t have any ability to pay its bills or even medical/mental health problems?
• Are you willing to sell your property below market value in exchange for the convenience and speed of a cash sale?
• Does the current condition of your house make it difficult to attract traditional buyers?

For some people, in a hurry to sell a property, selling for cash aligns completely with their goals.  Quick and hassle-free are their priorities!

            For other people, the answer isn’t as clear.  We insist that all of our home-sellers seek professional advice from a lawyer.  And all of our contracts specify that lawyers must be involved for both sides, to ensure everyone’s rights and interests are protected.  We offer a quick and easy process, but it’s always legal.

            The key advantages of selling a house for cash are speed, convenience and simplicity.  Imagine the relief of getting out from under the burden of an unwanted property!
