So you have tried unsuccessfully to sell your home the usual way. Your home has been on the market for way too long without any type of offer. You need to sell your house and even more important, you want to sell your house fast.
You are not alone. In fact, not a week goes by that I do not hear someone say “Can you help me sell my house fast?” Unfortunately, in this housing market, even the best real estate professional is having a hart time figuring out how to sell a house fast.
I know that does nothing to help you when you are making payments on a home you either don’t live in or don’t want to live in!
Luckily, I can show you how to sell your house fast!
Lease options and rent to own homes are becoming very common nation wide. They help people who need to sell fast get full fair market value from their home. Offering houses for rent to own dramatically widens your pool of potential buyers.
But, should you work with a company like us or go it alone? Let’s take a look at your options.
You could simply work by yourself. Several things you could do are post your home are on free websites, and put signage in the yard. The advantage of keeping all the upfront money is clear. You would have no commissions to pay when the home finally closes and would get to keep the option fee now.
While this may look pretty good, there are still a few things to consider before choosing this option.
Selling a home with a Lease Option is likely something that you’ve never done before. You need to make sure that you understand the contracts you are using so that you don’t get into a situation where you unknowingly are unprotected. The wrong verbiage can make the difference between you having to simply evict (which takes weeks) versus going through the foreclosure process (which takes months) should the tenant default.
Considering your goals, do you have the know how in order to achieve them? How vital is it that the tenant purchases the home at the end of the term? Are you financially able to carry a long term note?
If getting your mortgage paid off and moving on is important to you, you need to determine if you have the knowledge (and desire) to steer the tenant in the right direction for credit repair and make sure they stay on track.
At the end of the day, while you can certainly make more money by going it alone, it just may not make sense for you.
That is why many people decide to work with us. We have a large database of over 4,000 people who are actively looking for lease option and rent to own deals at any given point.
Unlike working with a Realtor, we specialize in this type of transactions. Most realtors are not all that experienced when it comes to lease options and unknowingly use documents that leave you unprotected. Plus, you set the rent and the purchase price and we never take a portion of either!
In a tough market, the use of a Lease Option or Lease Purchase is a quick way in which to sell your home regardless of how you do it! It is much better than responding to those signs you see on the side of the road that say “Sell House Fast!” or “Sell House Quick!” or “Sell Home Now!” and when you respond you find out they want to give you 50% of the homes value.
By the way, I have a friend in New Zealand who has a home for sale in Wellington. Check it out if you are in the market!
