Real Estate Agents
Believe it or not, this is not just an “OR” solution. A cash buyer does not work exclusively with those who are not working with an agent. The process will change a bit though if you do have an agent.
Differences In A Cash Sale With or Without An Agent
Commissions
Agents require commissions that come out of the sale of the house. This goes for both the buyer agent and the seller agent. When the sale is complete, those commissions come out of the sale. This costs sellers an average of 6% of the sale price. So if you sell your house for $300,000, you will be paying about $18,000 in commissions.
When you sell to a cash buyer, some will help you bypass this fee altogether. When you work with ASDM Homes, we cover the commission costs if you are working with an agent. This way, you get more of the money from your cash offer!
Market Times
Selling a house on the market does not happen overnight. Even if you put your house up for sale today, the average time in California before accepting an offer is over 30 days right now. That does not include the escrow process or the hiccups you might encounter along the way. Escrow times is open for negotiation, but this process tends to be around 30 days.
With ASDM Homes, you get a cash offer shortly after contacting us. After you accept the offer, we can close in as little as a week. And we don’t run the risk of the same hiccups you’d encounter with a traditional sale during escrow.
Costs
Even if you wanted to put your house on the market today, it may not be the best idea. You will likely need to do some work on your house first. Making repairs and upgrades prior to selling can help increase the value of your home and make the possibility of having issues and delays during the escrow process less likely.
Cash buyers don’t require any of this. If you have not contacted an agent yet, we won’t require any repairs or upgrades before you sell to us. If you already completed projects, you won’t have to worry about anything happening during the escrow process because of additional repairs that need to be made.
Agent Benefits
We love our agents. We work with any homeowner who comes our way, with an agent or without. When an agent helps you through the selling process with us, we keep connected with them and help them with future business.
