Frequently Asked Questions
General Process and Selling Timeline
How long does the entire selling process take from start to finish?
The timeline can vary depending on your situation, but typically, the process can be completed in as little as 7-10 business days. Once we’ve agreed on an offer, we move quickly with the paperwork and any necessary steps, and you’re ready to close. If you need more time to finalize things on your end or to fit your schedule, we can be flexible and adjust the closing date to suit your needs.
The goal is to make it as fast and hassle-free as possible, without all the waiting and uncertainty you might experience with a traditional sale. So, whether you’re looking to close quickly or need a bit more time, we’re here to make the process work for you.
What documents do I need to provide to sell my home?
The documents you’ll need are usually pretty basic. Typically, you’ll need proof of ownership (like your deed), a government-issued ID, and possibly a recent utility bill or tax statement for verification. If there are any liens or outstanding loans, those details might be helpful too. Don’t worry, we’ll guide you through everything and let you know exactly what’s needed when the time comes.
Will I need a real estate attorney for the transaction?
What happens if my home doesn’t pass an inspection?
If your home doesn’t pass the inspection, it’s not a deal-breaker. Since we buy homes “as-is,” you don’t need to worry about making repairs. If issues come up during the inspection, we can either adjust the offer to reflect the needed fixes or proceed with the sale as-is. It’s all about making sure the process remains simple for you.
Do you charge fees for inspecting the house and giving an offer?
No, absolutely no fees. We don’t charge anything for inspecting your house or providing an offer. The inspection is completely free, and there’s no obligation to accept our offer. We want to make the process as straightforward and hassle-free as possible, with no hidden costs or surprises along the way.
Do I need to pay closing costs?
Closing costs can depend on the specific offer and terms we agree upon. In most cases, we cover the closing costs, but it can vary depending on the situation. We’ll discuss everything upfront so that you’re clear on what to expect. If any costs are involved on your end, we’ll make sure everything is laid out transparently so there are no surprises. Ultimately, we want the process to be as straightforward as possible, and we’ll work with you to find the best solution based on your needs.
Will you buy my home if it's vacant or abandoned?
Yes, we’ll buy your home even if it’s vacant or abandoned. We buy homes in all kinds of conditions, including those that have been left empty for a while. Whether it’s been vacant for months or even years, we can still make an offer and take care of everything for you. No need to worry about cleaning it up or making repairs—we handle all that.
Will I get a check or a wire transfer when the sale is finalized?
Wire transfers work best for everyone since they’re fast and secure. Once the sale is finalized, you’ll typically receive your payment via wire transfer. However, if you prefer a check, we can discuss that option, but wire transfers are the standard to ensure everything moves smoothly and quickly.
Is there any obligation to sign when I submit my information?
No, there’s absolutely no obligation to sign anything when you submit your information. This is just the first step in getting an offer. After you provide the details, we’ll review everything and give you a fair offer. You’re under no pressure to accept or sign anything unless you’re completely comfortable with the offer and ready to move forward. We want to make sure you’re fully informed and confident in your decision before committing to anything.
How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
The real estate market can change over time, and over the past few years, home prices have gone up and down in different areas. So, we take that into account, too, to make sure the offer is fair for both you and us. Once we’ve considered all these details, we put together an offer that reflects the true value of your home and is fair for everyone involved.
General Seller Benefits
Do you charge any fees, or will I get the full offer price at closing?
No, there are absolutely no fees with us. The full offer price is what you’ll receive at closing. We don’t charge commissions, closing fees, or any other hidden costs that some traditional buyers or real estate agents might. What we offer you is what you’ll walk away with—plain and simple.
We believe in being transparent throughout the process. There are no surprises, no last-minute charges, and no fine print to worry about. Our goal is to make this as easy and stress-free for you as possible, so you get the full value of the offer you’ve agreed to.
How does your offer compare to selling with a real estate agent?
Well, selling with an agent can be a pretty drawn-out and frustrating process. You’ll lose a significant chunk of your sale price—typically about 6% in agent commissions. Then, there are the extra costs for repairs, cleaning, and staging your home, plus the constant back-and-forth with buyers who might fall through at the last minute. Add in the stress of showings, open houses, and lengthy negotiations, and you’ve got a whole lot to deal with.
When we make you an offer, it’s straightforward, quick, and completely hassle-free. We don’t charge any fees, and we buy your house exactly as-is—no fixing, cleaning, or staging required. On top of that, we can close in as little as a week, depending on your situation. So, instead of dealing with endless delays and all the unpredictable stress, you can enjoy a fast, simple, and stress-free sale.
