Frequently Asked Home Selling Questions

Read some of the most frequent questions we get asked by local homeowners who need to sell a house with no agents fast.

Q
Can I sell my house privately online to a cash investor?
A

You can sell your property privately online directly to a cash investor, with no agents involved. No law forces you to use an agent or a broker to sell your property.

However, if your property is already under contract with a realtor, you need to check your agreement terms - you may need to wait until the contract expires before selling by owner.

Otherwise, we are the top private home buyers who’d be happy to purchase your property fast and for cash.

Q
How long does it take to sell a house by owner privately?
A

A timeline of 3 to 30 days is typical when you sell your home privately to our team.

That’s fast compared to a traditional sale with an agent, and especially to marketing a FSBO home to the general public. Such sales most often take multiple months.

Most people buying through an agent need to secure a mortgage first. Lenders need weeks to check paperwork, appraise the house, and approve the loan for your buyer.

Limiting an agent to private advertising instead of public marketing can drag out the timeline even further.

Selling to us means you won't wait on banks, since we don't rely on traditional lenders.

Our team is ready to start escrow right away, because we have the cash on hand the moment you accept our cash offer.

Waiting months for an offer doesn’t happen when you choose a cash sale with us - experienced private house buyers whose business is to help you sell your house fast without a realtor.

Q
Can I sell my house privately AS IS?
A

An “as-is condition” doesn't stop you from being able to sell your house privately.

Homes with any of the damage types listed below have already been part of our buying history.

Reach out to us for a no-obligation offer before you spend a dime or hire a contractor to fix things up. You can sell your home fast without a realtor to us whether it needs cosmetic repairs or is a complete ruin.

Below is an incomplete list of problems that won’t stop us if you want to sell your house as-is by owner to our company. If yours is something else, you are still welcome to reach out.

  1. Water Damage
  2. Fire Damage
  3. Roof Damage
  4. Mold Damage
  5. Foundation Damage
  6. Structural Damage
  7. Storm Damage
  8. Termite Damage
  9. Polybutylene Pipes
  10. Lead-Based Paint
  11. Septic Damage
  12. Unpermitted Work
  13. Lead Pipes
  14. Asbestos
  15. Hoarder
  16. Radon
Q
What type of properties do you buy?
A

Every kind of residential property fits what we’re looking for - from single–family to small multifamily. Even vacant land works for us!

  1. Single-Family
  2. Condominium
  3. Townhome
  4. Mobile Home
  5. Duplex
  6. Triplex
  7. Fourplex
  8. Land
Q
Why should I sell my house to your company?
A

Choosing us as your buyer is a way to sell your FSBO house faster and easier than marketing it to the general public:

  1. You sell quick
  2. You sell for cash
  3. You sell “AS IS”
  4. No extra expenses
  5. No endless showings
  6. No waiting months for a buyer
Q
Can I sell my high-value house privately to you?
A

You can absolutely sell your house through a private sale to us, even if it’s a high-value, luxurious property.

No matter your home’s worth and size, we are ready to help you sell your house fast with no agents involved.

Q
How to sell your house online privately without real estate agents?
A

Bypassing a real estate agent to sell your home by owner online keeps the entire process fast and uncomplicated if you sell to a professional home buying company.

If you choose to work with us to sell your property without a realtor, just four basic steps stand between you and a closed deal.

  1. A cash offer with no strings attached is waiting for you once you reach out to us. A quick walkthrough of your house helps us see the layout and condition when we stop by for a visit.
  2. Expect a written cash offer for your house from us once we've seen the place. We usually make an offer either on the spot or within 1-3 days after the walkthrough.
  3. Saying yes to our offer moves things into escrow, where we take over the paperwork an agent usually does — all while you skip the commission fee!
  4. We close on your property, and you get your cash.

This is not the only way to sell your house without a realtor, but it’s the easiest one.

The other method would be marketing your property to the general public. This involves additional steps:

  1. educating yourself on all the steps of a standard real estate sale
  2. touring interested (and not so interested) buyers through your property
  3. negotiating and renegotiating with your buyer’s agent
  4. paying your buyer’s agent commissions (even though they aren’t serving you!)
  5. making your house available for appraisal and inspections required by the buyer’s lender
  6. waiting for the buyer to get a loan approval, and if they don’t - starting over with a new buyer

If you want to sell your house fast with no realtor and have a seamless experience, the first method is your best option.

Q
Do I need a lawyer to sell my house privately, without listing?
A

When going “for sale by owner”, choosing to hire a lawyer is entirely up to you.

Saving on attorney fees is a major reason many people skip hiring one when they sell their house privately.

Our team takes care of the sales contract, manages the legal paperwork, and opens escrow for you.

Every traditional task a lawyer usually covers falls under our responsibility instead. These services come at no cost to you, either.

Q
Are there any legal requirements to sell real estate by owner?
A

Two specific legal rules apply when you decide to sell property by owner.

To sell your own home without a realtor, you'll need to fill out a property disclosure form and hand it over to the person buying your home.

Both you and the buyer must also sign a written contract to finalize the sale.

These legal documents cover things like the address and description of the property, the purchase price and financing arrangements, the closing date and closing costs, and contingencies to the sale.

Make sure both you and the buyer include the date next to your signatures on the paperwork.

Our team has a solid track record of buying houses for cash and closing deals.

Because we understand the law, our team can provide a cash offer using a contract that checks every legal box.

Q
Can I take my house off the market and sell privately after listing with a Realtor?
A

Pulling your house off the market to sell privately is totally fine after a contract with the agent expires.

You'll usually see a clear start and end date for the listing in your broker's paperwork. Missing dates make the agreement non-binding, which lets you sell your house FSBO without an agent to whoever you want.

The law requires you to respect that end date if the listing paperwork includes one.

Most agents will actually rip up the contract if you just ask them to cancel the listing. That end date has to pass before you can legally sell your home with no realtor if your agent refuses to cancel.

Your real estate agent might still legally earn a commission if the buyer first reached out or toured the house while the listing was active, even if the actual sale happens after you pull the house off the market.
