Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?

Great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list houses. We are professional home buyers: We buy houses in Wichita and the surrounding areas in Kansas 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.

Do you pay fair prices for properties?

Many of the houses we purchase are below market value (we do this so we can resell it at a profit to another homeowner). We are looking to get a fair discount on a property. However, in our experience, many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property but rather 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!)

How do you determine the price to offer on my house?

Great question, and we’re an open book: Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and the values of comparable houses sold in the area recently. As you know, house values have taken a huge hit in the last 5 years and most areas still haven’t seen prices come back up. We take many pieces of information into consideration… and come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you too.

Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?

This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house us. 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).

How are you different from a real estate agent?

Real estate agents or realtors 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 6-12 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3-6% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 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’re not agents, we’re home buyers. Our company actually buys houses. We don’t list houses. Since we’re actually the one buying the house from you, and we pay with all cash… 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 (which is the hard part in this market).

Is there any obligation when I submit my info?

There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash 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 and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.

How To Sell A House During A Divorce in Wichita

It can be very difficult to sell a house during a divorce. Learn more about the easiest and most fair way to sell your house in Wichita in our latest post!

When dealing with a divorce, settling affairs and dividing assets can be excruciating. Between the bickering and constant disagreements, dealing with such a large financial decision will only add fuel to the fire. Many couples opt to sell their property, so they can quickly and easily divide their real estate interests and move on with their lives. Below, we offer some tips to make the home selling process as simple as possible when selling your house during a divorce in Wichita.

Price The Home To Sell

By accepting a lower price than you would normally try to get for the property, you give yourself the ability to potentially sell the house much more quickly. Both former spouses will need to agree on what is an acceptable price. If you list the house on the MLS in Wichita, make sure you haven’t priced the property too high. Doing so will delay finding a buyer, causing you to deal with the selling process for longer than you would like. Price it right from the beginning so you can sell it fast. While you will still have to wait for the escrow process which can last 30-60 days, finding a buyer won’t be as difficult.

Delegate Responsibility

Depending on your situation, you may have enough to fight about already. You don’t want to add more things to bicker about by being unclear about who is doing what for the sale of the home. Make sure each party knows his or her role in order to avoid the blame game of who is doing what and when. Decide who will handle cleaning, required repairs, and questions from the agent. It’s important to the ex-couple to be able to work together in order to facilitate a successful sale of the home. In some cases, it may be best to hire a pro to handle the cleaning as well as other tasks, splitting the costs between both parties involved. Both parties should be in contact with the agent so that everyone is kept in the loop during the process. A fighting couple may forget to tell their former something that is critical to the sale of the home.

Keep Your Emotions In Check

When selling a house during a divorce in Wichita, you are bound to get emotional at some point during the process. Divorce is hard. Saying goodbye to not only your spouse but your home as well can cause you to think irrationally. Keep your eyes on the future so you don’t feel sadness, spite, or bitterness toward your partner. These feelings can disrupt a successful sale and can make the process drag on for longer than it should. You can also have your lawyer or mediator assist you in the process of selling your house in Wichita.
