There are plenty of reasons why a couple would want to sell their home fast, and for cash. Perhaps it is to take advantage of a lucrative out-of-state job offer. Perhaps the couple has run into financial difficulty and they wish to use the equity they have in their home to rid themselves of debt. In situations such as these, it is not practical to use a real estate agent. When you list with an agent, it can take months to close the sale, and you have to devote time and money to prep the property.
Selling a house is not easy, even at the best of times. Selling a house when you have limited options, only makes things worse. The process can quickly become an emotional and financial burden. Now is the time to contact investors who say, “We buy houses in Chesapeake.”
Your House Will Sell Fast
Property investors who buy houses for cash have their resources, or they work with a network of investors who are willing to buy. Selling the house is straightforward. Once you have contacted the investor, be prepared to answer specific questions about the property. You can expect a visit from the buyer. A cash offer will be made for the property in its “as is” condition. At this stage, you are under no obligation. You have every right to accept or reject the offer.
If you accept the offer, the sale moves quickly. As there is no lender involved, there are no complications. Within a matter of a week or two, the sale is completed. You have the proceeds from the sale, in cash.
Although you may realize more for the house if you use the services of a realtor, it will take several months to find a buyer. When you sell to an investor, you get an offer on the spot and your money, in cash, in a couple of weeks.
