A: We will make a fair cash offer on your property based on its current condition, which will not result in retail pricing. Although, many times our offer is about equal to what you would “net” from selling the property retail.

When selling a property retail you must understand that you will not get the full retail price. There are many factors and fees that take away from the money that actually goes in your pocket, such as:

• Realtor’s commission, usually 6% of sales price
• Costs of repairs needed to get the property market ready
• Buyers closing cost, it is a common practice for buyers to ask the sellers to help in paying a portion of their closing costs, usually 3%
• Additional repairs after inspections, there are always additional repairs that are asked to be made, even on homes that have been fully rehabilitated
• Holding costs, these are the payments you will be making while you are waiting for the property to sell, they include: mortgage payments, HOA dues, insurance payments, property taxes, utility payments, security systems and lawn maintenance to name a few. These holding costs can quickly amount to a large sum of money when waiting to sell a home.
• Time! This is the most expensive payment of all, you must dedicate your precious time to all of these tasks that you’ll never get back. Driving back and forth to the property, managing contractors, being present for inspections, keeping the property secure and looking its best, etc. Sometimes you have to ask yourself, “Is it worth it?”

All in all, once you take a look at your bottom line, most people come to realize they are better off just selling the property “as-is”, instead of divulging a sizable amount of time, money and energy into property.

A: Good question. There are several factors that go into determining the offer we will make on your property, the most important ones are:

• Location: we examine the neighborhood and surrounding areas
• Current Condition: we inspect the property to assess the amount of repairs needed
• Comparables: we search for recent sales of nearby properties to better determine what the retail value of the property will be
