The coronavirus has had a huge impact on the real estate market, with lockdown restrictions making selling a house, buying a house or moving to a new house a real challenge! Now that restrictions are being lifted, many people are wondering how to get their real estate plans – and lives – back on track. COVID-19 isn’t going anywhere for a long time, however, so it is important to sell your house as safely as possible. Here’s why selling as is to our cash for houses agency is the best solution!
How has COVID-19 Affected the Property Market?
Understandably, this industry – which is usually booming in the springtime – is showing a big drop in sales and new listings. People have put their lives and futures on hold, and everyone who was considering moving or buying a new home has put a pin in that decision.
But now that restrictions are lifting, you can expect to see a flood of new listings as everyone rushes to get their plans back on track. This means that the market will have a surplus of houses for sale – making it harder to sell your home. Another consideration is that this will mean the return of open houses (although they will likely be very different in terms of hygiene and protection) and very few people are going to buy a home they can’t see in person, which means increased risk of COVID-19 entering your home.
What is Selling As Is?
Usually, selling a property involves quite a bit of hard work, inconvenience and expense. Naturally, you want the best price for your home – but that means ensuring that it looks it’s best (and that it looks like what the current market wants).
Depending on your home’s condition and age of the fixtures, you’ll generally have to repaint your home, perform any general maintenance and repairs, update old appliances and give it a deep clean. In many homes, you may also be advised to replace your kitchen and bathrooms, beautify your backyard and update the exterior. This kind of work takes time and money, and with the COVID-19 issue, it’s really not a good idea to expose yourself and loved ones to even more people.
Selling as is takes away the COVID-19 exposure risk AND the expense of repairing and updating your home. You will literally be able to sell your house exactly as it is right now, without spending another penny.
How Does This Work?
This system works because you aren’t selling to a private individual who wants to live in your property – you are selling to a cash for houses agency.
We take properties of all shapes and sizes, in all condition, whether they are brand-new or need repairs – we take them all. Then, we do the legwork of repairing and updating the property where needed, spending our own money to make this happen, and then we work on finding a private buyer.
We offer a competitive, market-related price for your home (we don’t even need to see it in person, helping you to stay safe), which you can accept or reject. Once it’s accepted, we buy the property from you and the cash is sent to your account directly – there aren’t even any real estate agent or Realtor fees to pay.
This isn’t just a safer way to sell your home, it’s also the fastest and the most affordable. Remember, you don’t need to spend any money on your property only to hope that a buyer gives you a good deal to pay off that additional expense – that’s our issue, not yours. In just 24 hours, you can sell your house without any risk of COVID-19 and be ready to move to your new home!
