Selling Directly To Cardinal Home Buyers vs. Listing On The MLS With A Local Agent
Even if it’s a hot seller’s market, it is still smart to look at all of your options to see what works best with your goals of the sale of your Raleigh house. While there is a chance you could get a higher sales price listing with an agent, that doesn’t always equal more money in your pocket or the stressless situation you are likely looking for. Take a look below to compare your selling options.
| Selling w/ A Raleigh Agent | SELLING To Cardinal Home Buyers | |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions / Fees: | Up to 6%, paid by you, the seller | None |
| Who Pays Closing Costs? | Typically 2% is paid by you, the seller | We pay all closing costs. |
| Financing Contingency*: | Yes, sales can fall through because of this. | This is a cash purchase, so no financing required |
| Appraisal Needed: | Yes, sale of the property is typically contingent on appraisal. | No, not necessary with a cash offer. |
| Average Days Until Closing: | +/- 90 Days | We provide immediate cash offers and can close as soon as 7 days |
| Number of Showings: | It Depends | 1 (Only Us) |
| Date of Closing: | 30-60+/- days after you accept the initial offer | Whenever you choose |
| Who is Responsible For Repairs? | Typically negotiated during the inspection period | We cover all repairs |
Here at Cardinal Home Buyers, we don’t use traditional bank financing, so there is no concern about our ability to close on a deal.
Review the numbers and see which scenario best fits your situation…
When you review the numbers and pros / cons of each situation, you can begin to see which option works best for selling your home.
Yes, here at Cardinal Home Buyers we normally can’t offer full retail value, but we can offer other benefits to account for this that listing with a local real estate agent just can’t provide.
For example…
From accepting an offer to closing in as little as 10 days.
You have the ability to get rid of your property fast and not pay one more utility bill, tax payment, insurance payment, mortgage payment, etc. If you sell your house listing with a local agent and wait 90+ days until closing, the additional costs of holding that property for an extra 3 months can quickly add up.
No need to worry about any repairs or cleaning your house for each potential buyer.
We’re not concerned about how dirty your house may be (trust us, we’ve seen worse!) or how many repairs might be needed (does it need every repair imaginable? That’s fine. That’s what we’re good at). We want to make an offer on your house today. Let us save you time and the hassle of listing your home and put money in your pocket quicker.
No hidden closing fees, we’ll take care of them!
Because we are an experienced and professional home buying team, we know how to make it easier for you. We cover all closing costs. What we offer you is what you walk away with (of course this does not account for any mortgage payoffs or other encumbrances on the property). Sounds nice doesn’t it?
Taking into account all of the time you can save by selling to Cardinal Home Buyers, the stress free experience, and the amount of money you will save on agent commissions, closing costs, and holding costs while waiting to close the traditional route, it’s apparent why so many homeowners in are preferring to sell to a professional home buyer like ourselves.
