So here’s a quick collection of some of the questions people ask us… along with our answers. If you still have a question, don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) and we’ll be happy to answer it for you.
Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: It is completely up to you!
(1) We are professional home buyers: We buy houses in Florida that meet our purchasing criteria. From there we may repair the house and/or resell it to another home owner or keep it as a rental ourselves.
(2) We are also licensed realtors, and would be happy to list the property on the MLS for you.
Q: How do I get paid for my house?
A: All of our transactions are made through a reputable Title and Escrow Company. You pay no costs or fees related to the closing process. We can pay you by check or by wire transfer: It’s up to you!
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: We buy houses in any condition, and regardless of circumstances — in a nutshell, we pay a fair price based on the condition and market value in the area. That being said, many of the houses we purchase are below market value (we do this so we can resell it to another home owner). We are looking to get a fair discount on a property. We have found that many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property but rather appreciate that we can offer cash, and we close very quickly (no waiting for financing). Also, they don’t have to worry about spending any time, effort, or expense to fix up the property. If that’s what you’re looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold fast… let’s see if we can come to a fair win-win price. (Besides, our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s good to know what we’re offering!)

Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: Our method is pretty simple and straightforward. We look at the area the property is located in, recent sales of comparable homes in the neighborhood, the condition of the property, and what repairs are needed to bring the property up to saleable condition. While the housing market has recovered somewhat, a lot of neighborhoods still haven’t seen prices come back up. The market is currently in what we call a “flattened” state, with the amount of time required to sell a property increasing. We take many pieces of information into consideration… and come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you too. It is always our goal to create a “win-win” situation for every transaction.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: There are absolutely no fees — this is one of the ways our approach different from the way a “traditional” real estate brokerage would sell your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house us. We’ll make you an offer, and if it works for you we’ll buy your house (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking all of the risk here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not, once we buy the house from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and it’s payments… and often with cash in your hand).
Q: How is your company different than the services a “regular” real estate agent provides?
A: Most Real estate agents just list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 6-12 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3-6% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Traditional real estate brokerages provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. But that’s where we’re different: Although we are licensed real estate agents and happy to list a property for you, we’re primarily home buyers – our company buys houses. Since we’re the one actually buying the house from you, and we pay with all cash… we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple days (sometimes the same day). Again, we make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, and market it ourselves to find a buyer (which is the hard part in this market).
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
A: There are absolutely zero obligations for you. We just need a little information about your property, we will take a look at things, maybe call you to find out a little bit more, and make you a cash offer that is fair for both of us. At that point, it is completely your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us. We won’t bother you about it, or hassle you… it’s your property and completely your decision.
