Hi, everybody. This is Alex from Coastal Edge Homebuyers. I wanted to take a moment to go over some information for those of you who recently have lost a loved one, and you’ve inherited a house. This is especially helpful for those of you who need to sell that house fast. The house may be distressed, it may have been needing updates for a long time. And now it’s inherited, it’s empty, and you just need to sell it quickly. So, if you need to sell a house fast, we could be your best choice. We are Costal Edge Homebuyers, and we buy houses locally. This, behind me, is our website, which is coastaledgehomebuyers.com.
So, imagine that the house that you inherited is in Hampton, Virginia. I picked that city, because that’s one of the areas which we service. So basically, if you inherited a house and you need to sell it quickly, the fastest way would be to sell it to an investor, like us. That means you’re going to get a cash offer, the house will be sold “as is”. It doesn’t matter what the condition is. It doesn’t matter what (furniture) is in it. If you have stuff in the house, you may need to get some of it, to go somewhere, we can help you move it. Everything else, you can just leave behind. It doesn’t matter what it is, or how much repairs the house may need, we’re going to buy it exactly as is, zero questions asked. And, basically, we buy very quickly. You’re going to have a closing in 7 to 10 days, that usually is the fastest. In fact, you can pick your own closing date. That’s another great benefit of selling the house to an investor like us, which can be very helpful in certain situations.
So, we buy houses, as is, anywhere in the Hampton Roads area, and we can buy yours. So when you sell a house to an investor like us, there’s no fees that you have to pay, there is absolutely no extra expenses on your part. As opposed to, if you sell with a real estate agent, in which case you will have to pay them a commission, usually that’s 6%. Which, you can do the math, on a $200,000 house, would be $12,000. When you sell the conventional way, through a real estate agent, that is usually more suitable for cases where the house is in good shape, in very good shape, especially if it was recently renovated. If you want to get top dollar for your house, you have to do a complete rehab, and then sell it through a real estate agent. This is the conventional wisdom, it still holds true today.
But if your house is in distress and you need to sell it fast, a company like Coastal Edge Homebuyers would be a better option. Hands down, that is the best way to go. Because you’re going to get a lump sum cash, fast and easy, sell as is, no fees, just leave it all behind, and that’s it, and be done with it. There is a certain convenience in selling the house this way, which is unmatched by any other way of selling. Now, if the house is in distress, it would not fetch top dollar, because it was not renovated recently, but there is another way in which we can buy it, and that’s “on terms”. Which means, if you do not need the money right away, we can pay you with monthly payments. Why would you do that? Because you can get more money, over time, as a total sell price for the house.
Again, there are several different options that we can explore, in addition to these above. But I just wanted to go over some of the basics that can be helpful to you, especially if you want to sell a house fast. So, if you have any more questions, just give us a call. We are Coastal Edge Homebuyers, and you can reach us at (757) 414-7117.
