Selling Yourself As A Real Estate Investor

Read below for reasons why homeowners should sell directly to a real estate investor versus listing their home the traditional way.

1. No Stress

The whole process of selling to a cash buyer may seem like it’s too good to be true and too easy to be legit. But really, there is no stress for you! Once you find a professional home buyer, all you do is go online and fill out their intake form. Simply answer questions about your property and upload your pictures. That’s it, and your work is pretty much done! No repairs needed, no tidying up for showings, no spending excess money on renovations, no marketing, and no negotiating offers!

2. Dealing With Professionals

With business credentials and online reviews, homeowners can quickly find which professional home buyer companies are legit and who is out to make a quick dollar and move on. As long as you do your research and get local recommendations, rest assured you are in good hands.

3. Fast

From start to finish, the sale of your house can take as little as 7 to 10 days. This is a very fast timeframe if you’re comparing it to the traditional time it takes if you list your home through a real estate agent. Once you’ve submitted your form online, someone from the company will contact you within 24 hours with an offer. If you do not like the offer, you can simply turn it down and move on. But if you happen to like the offer, the professional cash buyer takes it from there. They arrange appropriate meetings and paperwork. Then in less than ten days, you have cash in your hand in exchange for your home!
