Frequently Asked Questions

How much would you give me right now on the spot without seeing the home?

We won’t be able to give you a fair offer without seeing the home.

Is the offer negotiable?

Yes, however we try to give you the best and final offer right from the get-go.

Do you offer fair market value for the home?

We base our offers on your home’s condition and the local market. Since we buy “as-is” and cover all costs/fees and do not charge any fix fees we provide you with a NET take home number.

Can I change my closing date?

Absolutely! We work with your schedule. If you need to close earlier or later, we can adjust to match the timeline that works best for you.

How much time do I have in the house after closing?

We are flexible and can give you extra time after closing, provided we agree on the timeline beforehand.

How long is my offer good for?

Your offer does not expire right away. With us, there’s enough time to review it and make a decision.

If a lot of time passes or market conditions change, we’ll be in touch to provide you with an updated offer.

When will I receive the offer?

You’ll receive the offer right after we visited and evaluated the property – which, in many cases, happens on the same day as the walkthrough.

How long does the process take?

The process can take anywhere from 14 – 90 days it all depends on your timeline!

How much are your fees?

There are no fees. Unlike selling with a realtor or an agent, you don’t pay any commission, listing costs, or repair expenses. We even cover closing costs.

Escrow and Paperwork

How does the transfer of ownership work?

The transfer of ownership is managed entirely through escrow. Once you accept our offer, escrow prepares the necessary documents, including the deed.

You will sign the deed to transfer ownership, and escrow will record it with the county once closing is complete. At that point, we become the official owner of the property, and you receive your funds.

With this process, everything is legally binding, properly recorded, and transparent. So, you don’t have to worry about handling any of the filings yourself.

Will escrow pay my mortgage and other liens, or do I need to pay them after we close?

Escrow will handle paying your mortgage and any other recorded liens at closing. For this reason, there’s no need for you to settle these accounts on your own.

The escrow officer collects the payoff amounts directly from your lender or creditors. From here, the amounts are subtracted from the sale proceeds.

What remains is your net proceeds, which you receive on the closing date.

The escrow structure protects you by ensuring that debts tied to the property are cleared properly and that the home transfers free of those obligations

How can I know what my net proceeds will be?

Escrow provides a settlement statement that breaks down the numbers clearly. This is what you will see on this document:

-The purchase price

-Mortgages, liens and property taxes

-The net number you will take home

And because we shoulder the closing costs, there won’t be any additional fees taken out on the statement.

Reviewing this document ensures you know exactly what your net proceeds are before closing. And if you ever have questions about the numbers, the escrow officer will be happy to go through the details line by line.

Do I need to go to the escrow office to sign the paperwork?

You don’t have to go into the escrow office.

In most cases, the paperwork can be handled in a way that is convenient for you. Escrow officers can arrange for a notary to meet you at your home or another location, so you can sign where it works best.

If you prefer to go into the office, this option is available as well. We aim to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible, especially if mobility or scheduling is an issue.
