Keep This In Mind Before You Sell Your House For Cash

Before you sell your house for cash, there are a few things that you need to keep in mind.

We know it’s a tough decision to sell your house. And we know that you might be feeling like you don’t have any other options. 

First and foremost, when you sell your house for cash, you are not getting the full value of your home. When you go through a real estate agent, they will stage your home, market it to potential buyers, and help you negotiate the best possible price for your home. When you sell your house for cash, you are bypassing all of that and just taking whatever offers come in.

Secondly, when you sell your house for cash, you are also bypassing the inspection process. Most buyers who are buying with a mortgage will get an inspection on the home before they close on it. This inspection is important because it can identify any problems with the home that need to be fixed before the sale is finalized. When you sell your house for cash, the buyer might not do an inspection and if there are any problems with the home, you will be responsible for fixing them.

Thirdly, when you sell your house for cash, the buyer might ask for a discount because they are not paying commission to a real estate agent. While this might seem like a good thing at first glance, remember that the buyer knows that they are not paying commission and will likely low ball you on their offer because of it.

Finally, when each situation is unique and different, so is each sale.

Because of this fact, we always recommend that you speak with one of our experienced advisors before making any decisions about selling your home.
