Side by side
| Our cash offer | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Usually below full retail | Often higher if the house shows well |
| Repairs | None — sell as-is | Often expected |
| Showings | One walkthrough | Many open houses and appointments |
| Fees | No agent commission to request an offer | Typically a % of the sale price |
| Closing | As little as 14 days, or your date | Often 30–60+ days after you find a buyer |
| Certainty | Cash / assigned buyer; fewer financing fall-throughs | Depends on the buyer's loan and appraisal |
If listing will net you more and you have the time, we'll say so. See where we make offers.
When a cash offer tends to fit
Inherited house
Sell as-is without a full cleanout first.
Needs repairs
Skip the contractor bids and showings.
Tired landlord
Tenants can stay; we work around leases.
Relocating
Pick a closing date that matches your move.
Questions sellers ask
Do I pay commissions or fees?
No agent commissions and no fees to request an offer. Your written offer shows the closing costs and exactly what you walk away with before you sign anything.
Is a cash offer the right choice for everyone?
No. If your house is in good shape and you have time to list it, an agent may get you a higher price. We'll tell you honestly if we think listing makes more sense for you.
Are you the buyer of my house?
Not always. We make the cash offer and sign the purchase contract with you. We may then assign that contract to one of our investor buyers, who closes and pays you. Either way, your price and terms are written in the contract, and we tell you up front how it works.
How fast can I get an offer?
After a short call and a look at the property, we present a written cash offer within 24 hours.
