Frequently Asked Questions

Maybe you have a few questions. If you don’t see the answers you are looking for below, don’t hesitate to contact us and we’ll be happy to answer any question you have.

Q:  Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A:  Great question. Even though we are licensed real estate agents… our first goal is not to list your house on the MLS. We actually want to buy your house. We’re professional home buyers: We buy houses in Utah that meet our purchasing criteria. From there we may repair the house and resell it to another home owner or keep it as a rental ourselves.

Q:  Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A:  Of course we do. Our service is not for everyone, however. It’s not for the ones who have no situation that keeps them from waiting months or making repairs to the house. And that’s because those homeowners may be better off listing the home in an attempt to get top dollar. Because of the expenses of buying, repairing and selling a house to continue to offer fast and convenient home sales… our cash offer is typically lower than an offer on the open market.

What we offer is a solution to a problem you may have. Many sellers appreciate that we can offer cash, we close very quickly (no waiting for financing), and no time or effort or expense is required on your part of fix up the property or pay agent fees. If that’s what you’re looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold fast… let’s see if we can come to a fair win-win price. (Besides, our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s good to know what we’re offering!).

If our cash offer doesn’t make sense for you, we will give you at least 3 other options to get the home sold for you. Unlike other investors, we have the skill and creativity to structure the deal so it solves your problem more than one way.

Q:  How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A:  We believe in transparency and honesty. So, our process is very straightforward. We look at four things:  location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and values of comparable houses sold in the area recently.

With those 4 things, we can determine how much it will cost to repair the house, or bring it up to the top of the market and then what we can resell it for. From the resell value, we can work backward and determine a price we can pay for your property.

Our offers are based on market data . . . not outdated formulas.

Q:  Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you accept our cash offer. We’ll make you an offer, and if it’s a fit then we’ll buy your house (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees.

We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking all of the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not. Once we buy the house from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments… and often with cash in your hand).

Q:  How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 3-8 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer.

Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 6% of the sale price of your house: so if it’s a $200,000 house, you’ll pay up to $12,000 in commissions to an agent, plus the closing costs! Agents provide a great service for those that can wait months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. But that’s where we’re different: We act first as home buyers. Our company actually buys houses.

Since we’re actually the one buying the house from you, and we can pay with all cash or terms that make sense for you, we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple days (sometimes the same day). Again, we make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, repair the house, and market it ourselves to find a buyer.

Q:  Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation to you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at the data, set up a call with you to find out a bit more information, and make you an offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us . . . and we won’t hassle you, won’t harass you. It’s 100% your decision. We’ll let you decide what’s right for you.

Q:  What if your cash offer dosen’t make sense for me, but I still need to sell my house?
A: We are licensed agents and Realtors here in Utah. If our cash offer doesn’t make sense for you, there are other ways to solve your real estate problem.

First, We have a network of both investor buyers and retail buyers who may be able to purchase your home.

Secondly, we can offer you a few creative solutions to allow you to move on to your next home. This may mean we lease the house with an option to buy it later. It may mean that you deed the property to us while we manage the headache for you. We will create a custom solution based on your needs and situation.

Lastly, we can also list your home for you and get it sold fast on the open market (MLS). We are in the business of getting properties closed quickly. Even if you don’t accept our cash offer, let us show you how to get top dollar for your property.

One way or the other, we can get that property off your hands so you can move on with life.
