Can a fast cash offer be better for you than a traditional real estate sale?
It depends on your situation…
A few months ago I did a short video with Lily when we were at the title company. Lily’s mother had left her a house that — and unfortunately this happens — was in pretty bad shape. A traditional buyer like a realtor wouldn’t touch a house like Lily’s until it was fixed up.
I call this the realtor headache.
Now don’t get me wrong, realtors are usually great people trying to help out homeowners just like you. I’ve sold with a realtor before. What I learned long ago was that it’s a good process if you have the time, equity in the house, and it’s in good condition.
If you’re not in this situation, then I don’t think you’ll find a realtor to be much help..
What is the realtor headache?
Below is the video of Lily and I at the title company.
Lily was in a tough spot after her mom passed away. She was stuck with an old house that needed more repairs than you could shake a stick at. Lily didn’t have the time, money, or energy. She wanted to sell the home and sell fast. A traditional realtor is going to demand a lot from you before your house can sell. This can be painful for homeowners who can’t afford the traditional process.
Let’s take a look at what a homeowner goes through to sell a home with a realtor.
-
- Step 1: You hire a real estate agent to list your home.
- Step 2: You get your home ready for the sale.
- Step 3: Buyers contact your agent and ask to see the home or to make an offer.
- Step 4: You show the house to potential buyers.
- Step 5: You get offers on your home.
- Step 6: You negotiate and choose the best offer.
- Step 7: Appraisers and inspectors come to look at your home.
- Step 8: The buyer moves to close the house.
- Step 9: You wait for the buyer to get financing.
- Step 10: Your home eventually sells.
Now the process is a lot more complicated than this, but here’s an idea of just what it will take to sell a home. Guess how long this can take for a homeowner? That’s right, anywhere from 1 month to 6 months or more.
The realtor headache is the time, money, and energy needed to sell a distressed home.
If Lily had planned on selling her home with a traditional realtor, she would have needed to do three things:
-
- Wait months trying to sell the home.
- Spend thousands of dollars fixing the home.
- Waste her time working with contractors, inspectors, and potential buyers.
Whew! What a pain.
When should I skip the realtor and get a Fast Cash Offer?
Sometimes a realtor is a right way to sell. But when it isn’t, you’ll know. That realtor headache is going to give you a good idea that you need another option. I started Clean Slate Homes (CSH) to help give Texans another way to sell their homes.
When to consider a Fast Cash Offer?
If you have any of the problems below with your home, it’s time to consider a fast cash offer:
-
- Trashed or damaged home
- Behind on payments
- Owe more than the house is worth
- Need to sell quickly
- You can’t afford closing costs, commissions, fees, and repairs
- The home is going to be foreclosed
- Considering bankruptcy
- You have inherited a home in probate
Remember, a realtor is going to take you through the traditional home selling process we talked about above. For many people, this is fine. But, when your home is distressed, the traditional process just won’t work.
Don’t get stuck with a realtor headache!
