We Buy Birmingham Houses From Homeowners Who Need A Quick Sale

By Jeffrey Wright


Any Birmingham AL homeowner who has ever tried to sell their home knows what a headache it can be. You have to choose a Realtor, who may suggest you make repairs and stage your property. Once you get an acceptable offer, you have to wait on the prospective purchaser to get approved for financing. There is at least another thirty day period before you are able to close and get a check. It's no wonder companies with a slogan of "we buy Birmingham houses" are so popular.

Not every seller has time to wait for just the right buyer. You may be relocating to a different region of the country and starting a new job. You will have deadlines for moving and beginning work and can't afford to put it off. Maybe you have already purchased a new home and are now making two mortgage payments until the old property is sold. When someone offers you cash with no contingencies and a ten day closing, it can seem very attractive.

Everyone knows when you hire a Realtor there will be a commission due at closing. The seller either has to increase the asking price to include the fee or pay it out of pocket at closing. When you have a private, cash sale, there are no commissions or fees to pay. It is a straightforward transaction.

A cash offer eliminates the need for home inspections, expensive closings, and Realtor commissions. Once these savings are factored in, you may find you are receiving top dollar as net proceeds with this type of sale.

The companies that purchase real estate for resale usually do not require the seller to make any repairs to the property. They purchase it as is, no matter what the current condition. This can save the homeowner a lot of money, time, and inconvenience. The seller just has to be sure that the contract between him or herself and the buyer clearly states this condition of the sale.

Most potential purchasers who come into your home to view and inspect it will be strangers to you. The Realtor might have checked the prospect out before working with them, but it still may seem uncomfortable. With a home buying company, you can simply type the name into your favorite search engine and get all the information you need. You can even contact the Better Business Bureau for information.

Selling to one of these companies means you don't have to adjust your busy schedule around property showings and open inspections. These professionals will work with you to make sure any appointments are convenient for you.

When you put your home on the market, you never know how long it will take to get an offer and close. If you decide to accept a cash offer from a professional home buying business, the transaction will be over within days.
