Us vs. Them
Let’s see how selling your home to House Buyers of America compares to more traditional real estate transactions.
Traditional Real Estate Agents
When you list your house with a real estate agent, they'll handle the marketing, showings, and negotiations on your behalf – for a 5-6% commission on the sale of your home that comes out of your proceeds. Having an agent do most of the heavy lifting for you can be helpful, but it's important to consider the potential drawbacks. Listing your home with an agent can be time-consuming, so it may not be the best option if you need to sell quickly. Your house might sit on the market for weeks or even months, especially if there's stiff competition or a slow local market.
You’ll have to keep your house in pristine condition for showings, which can be quite a hassle. If your home is vacant, you may have to pay for staging to attract more buyers. According to homestaginginstitute.com, nearly 50% of realtors agree that both vacant and occupied homes can benefit from home staging. But seller beware: The cost of home staging can range from $500 to $5,000 or more, depending on the size of the home and the extent of the staging.
For Sale By Owner (FSBO)
Another option you might be considering is selling your house as a For Sale By Owner (FSBO). With FSBO, you’re in complete control over the entire sales process. Sounds appealing, but that also means you do all the work. While FSBO can save you on agent commissions, it requires a substantial amount of time, effort, and expertise on your part. Without the professional network and marketing resources of a real estate agent, reaching qualified buyers can be a crap shoot.
The whole process of selling on your own is extremely time-consuming. Handling pricing, repairs, staging, inspections, contract negotiations and all the legal paperwork involved can be like taking on a second job.
