NO. There are multiple options on how to sell your home without listing it on the open market. There are also benefits of listing your home to ensure maximum exposure and we can discuss those privately. Additionally we have what we refer to as “One Party Agreements” which is just a simple document stating that if the transaction is completed with our buyer you pay a set commission.

a. Yes. That is possible as we have sold many homes sight unseen. However, most buyers that plan on living in the home would want to tour the home. In that event we have two options, 1 – set up a predetermined time to tour the home and we will follow all the Covid-19 health protocols while we are in the “shelter in place” order. 2- Buyers are asked to view all photos, videos, information available about the property, do a walk around the outside of the property and then submit an offer “contingent” on doing a future inspection.

a. You can click here, this will give you a free and instant computerized home valuation. Please note this is based on algorithms that may not take into account things like views, condition, upgrades and other factors so this valuation may be higher or lower than your homes' actual value. We will conduct a phone or zoom conference to further discuss the items that could positively or negatively affect the value of your home.

a. Yes there are two ways to sell it in as is condition. 1 – a buyer agrees that they will do no inspections of any kind and simply agree to buy it as is. This may reflect a discounted price due to the buyer’s risk that they are taking. 2- you can sell any home “as-is” and at the same time allow a buyer to perform all standard inspections. The buyer is then given the right to cancel the contract should they discover issues during the inspection process.
