Frequently Asked Questions
How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
It is important to us that we’re offering a fair price. To do that, we take into account a few key factors.
- We consider any repairs or renovations that need to be made and factor that into our offer by looking at the current condition of your home.
- We consider factors such as supply and demand, average home prices, and current market trends by looking at the current real estate market in your area.
- We look at the overall value of homes in your neighborhood, as well as any potential for future development or growth in the area by considering the location and the potential resale value of your home.
All of these factors will be taken into consideration when determining a fair and reasonable price to offer for your home!
What are my options when dealing with foreclosure?
You have options available to you, and it’s important to know them. Here are a few ways:
-
Loan modification: We can work with your lender to modify your loan by changing the interest rate, extending the loan term, or reducing the principal balance through a loan modification.
-
Short sale: We can negotiate to sell your home for less than the amount owed on the mortgage through a short sale. If the lender accepts the sale price as payment in full, it will release you from the remaining debt.
-
Subject To: You can voluntarily transfer ownership of your home to our company in exchange for being released from the mortgage debt through a Subject To agreement. Depending on the current equity your home has, the terms can be more flexible than in a traditional sale, allowing the parties to come to an agreement that works best for both sides.
-
Bankruptcy: While we do not recommend it, filing for bankruptcy can temporarily halt foreclosure proceedings and give you time to catch up on missed mortgage payments.
-
Selling your home for cash: Selling your home to us for cash is the quickest and surefire way to avoid foreclosure and the negative impact it can have on your credit.
What are my options when dealing with a divorce settlement?
It can be overwhelming to decide on the best option. Here are some possibilities to consider:
- Consider selling the house and splitting the proceeds according to the divorce settlement agreement.
- One spouse can buy out the other’s share of the home, by obtaining financing or using their own funds.
- Couples with children may choose to continue co-owning the property.
- Mediation can help couples who are having trouble agreeing on how to handle the sale of the home.
- You can sell the home to a cash buyer, who can provide a quick sale without the need for repairs or extensive showings.
What are my options when dealing with bankruptcy?
Consider the following carefully as they involve life-changing decisions:
-
Liquidation bankruptcy (Chapter 7): This bankruptcy type requires the sale of your assets to pay off your debts. Some assets, such as your primary residence, may be exempt.
-
Repayment plan bankruptcy (Chapter 13): This bankruptcy type involves making regular payments to a trustee, who will distribute the funds to your creditors over a period of three to five years.
-
Negotiating debt settlement: This involves negotiating with your creditors to settle your debts for less than what you owe. It can be a good option if you have a lot of debt but don’t want to file for bankruptcy.
-
Sell your home: Selling your home can help you raise funds to pay off your debts. You can sell it through a traditional real estate agent or consider selling it to a real estate investor/company for a quick sale.
How are you different from a real estate agent?
If you urgently need to sell your property as a homeowner, you may be considering working with a real estate agent or us. While both options have their benefits, we believe we can offer several advantages over listing your property with an agent. Here are some reasons why you should work with us instead:
1. Faster sale: We can close on your home much faster than with a traditional real estate sale, allowing you to get your money and move on with your life much sooner.
2. No repairs or renovations: You can sell your home as-is with us, without having to make any repairs or renovations, which can save you time, money, and eliminate the stress of preparing your home for sale.
3. No commissions or fees: With us, there are no commissions or fees to worry about, including the title closing costs. Therefore, you can keep more of the money from the sale of your home.
What if I can't move out by the time we close?
We want to make moving as easy as possible because we know it can be stressful. If you need more time, we will do our best to accommodate you. We are able to advance the deposit on your next lease or cover your moving expenses for some of our clients. If you have any questions about how this works or if there is anything else we can do for you, feel free to reach out!
What if I have tenants and don't want them to know I'm selling?
We know that you’re a busy person, and we want to ensure that selling your home doesn’t add to your stress level. That’s why we provide discreet home assessments that won’t alert your tenants that you’re looking to sell. We can also explore options such as a temporary lease-back or moving assistance to help make the transition as smooth as possible.
What if there's a disagreement among heirs?
We know that when settling your estate, you want to do what’s best for everyone involved. That’s why we will work with you to negotiate an agreement between heirs before going to court. However, if a court resolution is needed to close the estate, we can assist with legal expenses to accomplish this for you. We strive to facilitate an agreement that satisfies everyone involved, delivering the fairest results given your family history.
Is it worth the investment to repair my house before selling?
Before you start working on your home to get the most value out of it, it’s important to consider the hidden costs involved. Take an honest look at the condition of your home and identify any major repairs that need to be made, such as replacing an old roof, updating the electrical system, repairing the foundation, or remodeling the kitchen and bathrooms. Be sure to get estimates from reputable contractors and factor in the time and effort required to complete the repairs. You need to weigh the costs and benefits to make an informed decision about whether or not it’s worth doing on your own. Remember, repairing a house can be a significant expense and take months to complete. If the return is not worth the extensive investment of your time and money, it may not be worth it.
