How to Get a Cash Offer On Your Home

From a buyer’s perspective, cash is always the best way to buy a home. When you buy a home with cash, you don’t have to pay any interest, you don’t have to pay any mortgage insurance, you avoid some of the costs of bank loans, and so much more.

But what about for a seller?

Cash offers on your home have benefits for sellers as well. Typically, sellers that receive cash for their home find the following advantages:

• Cash buyers close faster, often in 1 to 3 weeks.
• Cash buyers are less likely to back out of the deal.
• Cash buyers may pay some associated fees (since they save money on banking)

It tends to be rare for individual families to make cash offers, but investors make cash offers all the time, and while cash home investors are looking for a lower rate, they are also willing to buy homes that require major repairs, upgrades, and more. Homestead Group, for example, is happy to take all homes as-is, in any condition, even if they are broken down or in serious need of TLC.

What to Do to Attract Cash Offers

If you want to obtain a cash offer on your home, there are many different ways to start. With Homestead Group, where we buy any home in Northern California (in the Sacramento County, Placer County, and El Dorado County Regions), our process is extremely simple:

• Send us your address.
• Schedule an appointment.
• Receive a cash offer.

That’s it. We buy homes in all shapes and sizes, and we want to buy your home if you’re willing to sell it to us. But what about if you want to receive cash offers the old fashioned way, with your home on the market?

That’s a bit tougher. You can start by contacting real estate agents. Let them know that you’re willing to sell your home at a very competitive price if they can find you a cash offer, or you can advertise yourself with “Cash Offers Only” and prove that your home is desirable as both an investment and a residency. There’s no guarantee that you will get a cash offer, but it is possible to get lucky.

Outside of cash for home buyers like Homestead Group, you are at the mercy of the market when it comes to attracting cash offers for your property. But it is possible, even for those testing the market the traditional way.
