One thing you might be wondering is whether your offer will be fair or not. Totally understandable to ask this question as you see advertisements from investment companies all over town. At ATL Cash Home Buyers, we base our offers on what the home would sell for/appraise for after its been completely renovated and ready to sell on market minus all the repairs that we have to put into it. We are not contractors so we have to pay crews to come in and do the work. We are then at the whim of the market on how long it will and if it sells. We take all the risk out of it for you and get you the highest price we can.
Let’s dive into how you can sell your local Atlanta house fast and get cash for your house in the process without having to list your house with a real estate agent, or wait months for it to sell.
How Do Cash For Homes in Atlanta Buyers Work?
Finding reputable local Atlanta house buyers who pay cash for homes in Atlanta can be a daunting task. However, with a little research, you can find that there are several investors out there looking to buy property for cash. Here are some of the things you should look at when you’re working with local cash home buyers (including our company, ATL Cash Home Buyers, we buy local Atlanta Georgia houses fast).
And before you dive in below… if you’re not sure how the process of a cash buyer like ATL Cash Home Buyers buying your local Atlanta house works… check out our How it Works page on this site and our FAQ.
Price And Time Are Trade-Offs – Which Is More Important To You?
As you might suspect, it is not easy to get the full market value for your home if you are selling it fast on cash. To get the full market value of your house, you may have to wait 3-6+ months… and often will need a real estate agent out there marketing your house to find you the best buyer. Real estate agents charge a commission (usually 6% of the sale price as there will be a buyer’s agent bringing the buyer and your agent selling the home)… so if it takes you 6 months to sell and you have to pay a 6% commission… is that worth the wait? You are having to pay a lot of holding costs for those 6 months, i.e. mortgage principal and interest, as well as taxes, insurance and utilities. Then you have to take out what the agent is going to make. This can all add up quickly!
Most often, local Atlanta house buyers like ATL Cash Home Buyers, we’ll evaluate your house… determine what it’s worth if it’s fully fixed up… determine how much we’ll have to invest in repairing / renovating the property… how long it will take us… and of course we have to turn a small profit for our risk in buying the house, renovating, and selling it… so we do tend to make offers that are below the full retail market value.
But we can close quickly (in as little as 7 days if you need us to)… so if selling your house fast with zero hassle at all is more important than getting every penny out of the sale… submit your info on the form on this next page or give us a call at 404-439-9984.
We can make you a fast no-hassle offer in less than 24 hours.
We like to make sure every house seller we work with knows all of their options. Sometimes, your home may not fit our buying criteria and we can sell your home. The reason we might go this route is to get you the highest amount possible for your home! We know tons of investors and end buyers looking to purchase homes in Atlanta and we can still deliver you a quick close with an all-cash offer wherein you don’t have to fix up your home!
How Much Work Do You Want To Put Into Making Your Atlanta Georgia House Sell?
Another big factor that local Atlanta cash home buyers like ATL Cash Home Buyers can offer is we take 100% of all of the work and hassle to sell your house off of your hands.
We handle it all.
No, we’re not listing your house like an agent does. With that route… you’ll still have to clean up your house… get it ready to show it when the streams of potential buyers want to see it… go back and forth through your agent with the buyers on price and terms, etc. It can be a lot of work.
Especially if your house here in Atlanta needs some work. Most houses that aren’t “HGTV” quality, when listed on market with agent, they just sit there for months until someone comes around and low-balls you. And guess what, you still have to pay the agent their 6% even though you’re now not getting the price you originally thought you would!
But, we offer cash for houses in Atlanta Georgia because we’re professional home buyers based locally here in Atlanta. If a house needs work, we’ll buy it as-is and we’ll pay for the repairs it needs out of our pocket after we buy it from you. And you won’t have to worry about the paperwork either… we’ll get it all created at a reputable neutral party closing agent in town of your choosing… or we can recommend the ones we’ve used for years.
Basically, we can make you an offer to pay you “cash for homes in Atlanta” (or Call Us Today at 404-439-9984!)… and if it’s a fit, great! We’ll handle everything.
Do Your Research And Trust Your Gut
Before you decide to go with an investor offering cash for your property, be sure to investigate their reputation carefully. Consider asking for references from the investor. Talk to people the investor has worked with in the past to determine whether they are the right fit for you.
