FAQ
What Kind of Houses Do Investors Buy?
A: We purchase homes in all conditions and situations. We can even buy a home that has fire damage, hoarder houses, water damaged homes, properties with mold damage, you name it, we can buy it. We also buy what we like to call time capsules, homes that are in good condition but have not been updated in 20-30 years. Home in pre-foreclosure? We can stop auctions whether tax or bank-sanctioned, homes in probate or inherited homes to name a few different situations.
Are There Any Fees Associated With Selling To An Investor?
A: There are NO FEES!! We cover all your closing costs! We can even offer help with moving, by covering your deposit, and or paying for your moving expenses. We can even allow you a bit more time to stay after closing if needed!! Ask about our creative moving program for more information!
Commonly Used Terms:
How Much Commission Do Investors Take?
A: None! There are no commissions to be paid, we cover all your costs! We make a living by purchasing, renovating, and re-selling to families.
Will an Investor Buy My Property if I Am Facing Foreclosure?
A: YES!! In fact, many people still own the home when they think the bank has taken ownership. QUICK TIP! If you moved out of your home that is in foreclosure the bank will maintain the taxes, and the grass and even winterize and board up the home to protect the asset before the auction. But, you still own it, and can sell it to avoid a foreclosure stealing any money you can make on the sale, AND avoid ruining your credit!
How Long Does The Selling Process Take?
A: A cash sale in NY takes about 40-50 days. In other states, it’s much faster. Don’t be fooled by people who guarantee a faster closing!! Minimally it takes 3-4 weeks to get the title report, once reviewed and it is free of any liens or encumbrances we can close in 5-8 business days. If you need a faster transition just ask about our creative moving program!!
Can I Sell with People In It?
A: Every situation is different, but in many cases yes.
