Selling a property without the help of an agent, known as FSBO (for sale by owner), might seem tempting. After all, why pay those hefty real estate agent fees? But often homeowners realize that agents are worth every penny they charge when it comes time to actually sell their home. Let’s discuss 4 areas where a skilled real estate professional earns their commission and how working with a knowledgeable home buyer can save you time, money…and headaches!
Working with professional home buyers and investors can be a game-changer for you, since it saves time, money and hassle. Let us explain in more detail by highlighting 4 key areas this applies to.
1. Preparations For The Sale
The old saying, “If the barn needs painting, you better paint it,” is a perfect way to illustrate that if your property requires clean up and improvements prior to being put on the market, even with an experienced realtor involved, it will be difficult for it to sell. The effort of selling your own home in Central Florida via For Sale By Owner (FSBO) can seem overwhelming; nearly 70% of FSBO attempts fail due to various factors. Conversely, if you opt to take care of all the preparatory work yourself, it will be a long and costly process that would require significant amounts of energy.
If you’re looking for a fast and effortless way to sell your property, House Heroes is the perfect solution. We understand that it isn’t always possible or feasible to put in the time needed to make homes look their best, so we are more than happy to buy houses without any upgrades being made first. This can save you invaluable amounts of time and money while still offering an attractive price for your home!
2. Inspections and Repair Work
In order to efficiently close a sale, whether it be as a FSBO or through an agent, your home must pass inspection. If your buyer is utilizing an FHA loan to pay for the property, then expect a more extensive inspection and consequently costlier repairs. Don’t let a minor repair hold up the process. Most FHA buyers are already on tight budgets, so major repairs would likely need to be covered by you. When you work with House Heroes, you won’t be asked to make any repairs, saving you stress and money in the long run! We provide an as-is cash offer for all our clients, no matter how big or small of a fix it may take.
3. Advertising
When you enlist the help of a real estate agent, they become your personal marketing guru. An experienced agent will create an effective strategy to make sure your property is seen by potential buyers who are specifically interested in its features. This can include utilizing online resources as well as creating attractive photos and descriptions that showcase the house at its best, all backed up with professional staging techniques! Though FSBO listings can take advantage of this type of marketing, the expertise necessary to do so isn’t gained overnight.
When you opt to work with House Heroes, the stress of staging and making a home look picture perfect is gone. We understand that your goal is to sell quickly and easily, so we don’t need fancy descriptions or glossy pictures, just an as-is fair offer for what we see. No FSBO headaches and no real estate agent fees.
4. Open House and Showing Events
With the typical home-selling process, there are usually numerous viewings of the property to potential buyers. At times, an open house is organized in a bid to draw multiple interested parties all at once – this requires planning and coordination that realtor fees cover. However, with FSBO situations, it’s up to the owner to take on this responsibility for organizing as well as cleaning their residence every time someone wishes to enter it; which can be especially grueling if your home has been lingering on the market for some time now.Don’t let people fool you into thinking home buying companies aren’t reliable, House Heroes makes selling your house a breeze! You won’t have to worry about showings, open houses, or any other hassles. With House Heroes’ amazing deal, there’s no need for that! Our streamlined process is honest, transparent and rapid.
