How To Sell A Home Without A Realtor - You’ll Be Surprised!

If selling your house was as easy as listing a cell phone or an exercise bike on Kijiji, you probably would’ve sold it by now! But most of the time selling a house involves making repairs, maybe hiring a contractor to do some renovations and then doing whatever else the real estate agent recommends to make it more sellable. And the longer your house is listed for sale, the more work you may have to do to help it sell. So is there an easier way to sell a house without a real estate agent? There are good reasons why you may want to consider working with a wholesaler rather than a real estate agent.

A wholesaler will purchase your house as it is today. You won’t have to repair the leaky faucets or put a fresh coat of paint on the living room walls or do any of that meticulous house-staging work for the tire-kicking potential home buyers that real estate agents will keep bringing to your home. If you’re more interested in getting the cash now than in doing all that work in hopes of getting more money later, a wholesaler is prepared to give you a fair price for the house in the condition that it is presently in.

It’s not only easier, but it’s also much faster to sell your house to a wholesaler. Up front the wholesaler will tell you the price they’ll pay for the house and how soon you’ll have that cash in hand so you can move on with your life. There’s no need to wait for the realtor to put up signs, take tours and make inspections, and then ask you to go out for a few hours at a time for even more tours and inspections. With a wholesaler, you won’t have to worry about how long it will take.

There are no hidden fees when you sell a house to wholesaler. You’ll be receiving the exact price that was offered without any hassling or further negotiations. So while the list price of a house sold by a realtor will be higher, keep in mind that commissions for the real estate agents are coming off of that amount along with the fees that must be paid to complete the sale. You won’t be facing offers and counter-offers and then the payment of commissions and fees. Instead the wholesaler gives you a contract specifying the amount of money you will be receiving.

While many people put off selling a house because of all the work involved or because they worry about the long process of trying to sell it, there is an alternative that makes it easier and quicker. Instead of going to a real estate agent and negotiating commissions and fees, a wholesaler will sign a contract to buy the house as-is at the agreed upon fair price. Come to think of it, unlike selling a phone or bike on Kijiji, when a wholesaler buys your house, you also won’t have to deal with dozens of bizarre and annoying emails!
