How Does Cash For Homes in the Bay Area Buyers Work?

Finding reputable house buyers who pay cash for homes in can be a daunting task. However, with a little research, you can find that there are several real estate investors out there looking to buy property for cash. Here are some of the things you should look at when you’re working with local cash home buyers (including our company, Skye Homes-  we buy houses fast).

Price And Time Are Trade-Offs.  Which Is More Important To You?

As you might suspect, it is not easy to get the full market value for your home if you are selling it fast for cash.  To get the full market value of your house, it would first need to be fully-remodeled (buyer’s are demanding these days) you may have to wait 2-4 months… and will need a real estate agent out there marketing your house to find you the best buyer. Real estate agents charge a commission (usually between 4-6% of the sale price)… so if it takes you 3 months to sell and you have to pay a 5% commission… is that worth the wait?

 

Most often, Bay Area house buyers like Skye Homes, will evaluate your house… determine what it’s worth if it’s fully fixed up… determine how much we’ll have to invest in repairing / renovating the property… how long it will take us… and of course we have to turn a small profit for our risk in buying the house, renovating, and selling it… so we do tend to make offers that are below the full retail market value. Think about it this way, would you try to sell a used car for the same price as a new car? Why not? It’s the same concept with a “used” home that is not in new condition; it’s difficult to demand top dollar when the product is not in top shape.

 

 

The good news is that we can close quickly (in as little as 7 days if you need us to)… so if selling your house fast with zero hassle at all is more important than getting every penny out of the sale… submit your info on the form on this next page or give us a call at .

 

We can make you a fast no-hassle offer in less than 24 hours.

 

We like to make sure every house seller we work with knows all of their options, and we even encourage you to get other offers and shop them around. We won’t be offering the lowest price in town… we often won’t offer you the highest price… but you can be assured that when we make you an offer, we’ll follow through with what we say we’ll do.

 

How Much Work Do You Want To Put Into Making Your Bay Area House Sell?

Another big factor that local the Bay Area cash home buyers like Skye Homes can offer is we take 100% of all of the work and hassle to sell your house off of your hands.

 

We handle it all.

 

No, we’re not listing your house like an agent does. With that route… you’ll still have to clean up your house… get it ready to show it when the streams of potential buyers want to see it… go back and forth through your agent with the buyers on price and terms, etc. It can be a lot of work.

Especially if your house here in the Bay Area needs some work.

But, we offer cash for houses in the Bay Area because we’re professional home buyers with a stellar reputation.  If a house needs work, we’ll buy it as-is and we’ll pay for the repairs it needs out of our pocket after we buy it from you. And you won’t have to worry about the paperwork either… we’ll get it all created at a reputable neutral party closing agent in town of your choosing… or we can recommend the ones we’ve used for years.

Do Your Research And Trust Your Gut

Before you decide to go with an investor offering cash for your property, be sure to investigate their reputation carefully. Consider asking for references from the investor. Talk to people the investor has worked with in the past to determine whether they are the right fit for you.

 

There are people out there who are less than honest… so make sure to do your research, talk to them and make sure you can trust them, and that they can actually close on the offer they made you on time.

 

We take our reputation seriously and are glad to answer any questions you have about us, how the process works, and how we can help you.
