At EZ Sell Homebuyers, we’re committed to addressing any uncertainties you may have.
Q: Will my property be listed on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), or will you be making a direct purchase?
A: We are not real estate agents and do not list properties. At EZ Sell Homebuyers, we are professional home buyers specializing in acquiring homes in Ohio that meet our specific criteria. Because we do not depend on bank financing, you can trust in our ability to close transactions efficiently. Once we acquire a property, we may opt to renovate and resell it or retain it as a rental investment.
Q: How do you differ from a real estate agent?
A: Real estate agents focus on marketing properties to identify potential buyers. They typically conduct showings for interested parties, and in many markets, the average time to sell a property can range from four to six months. When a buyer is secured, the agent earns a commission, typically ranging from 3% to 6% of the sale price. For instance, on a home valued at $100,000, this would translate to commission fees of $3,000 to $6,000.
Real estate agents provide valuable services for those who can afford to wait several months to sell their property and are comfortable with paying a commission based on the sale price. In contrast, our approach is distinct. As professional home buyers, we purchase homes directly for cash. This enables us to make purchasing decisions within a few days and, in some cases, on the same day. We take on the risk by using our own funds to acquire, renovate, and market the property.
Q: Do you offer fair prices for properties?
A: Many of the properties we acquire are purchased below market value, enabling us to resell them for a profit. Our objective is to secure a fair discount on the property. Often, sellers prioritize our advantages—such as a cash offer, a quick closing process without the need for financing approval, and the opportunity to sell without investing time, effort, or money in repairs or agent fees—over achieving a large profit. If these benefits align with your needs, we can collaborate to arrive at a mutually agreeable price. Our pricing proposals come with no obligation, so you are under no pressure to accept our offer; however, understanding our capabilities can be beneficial.
Q: How do you determine the offer price for my property?
A: That’s an excellent question. Our process is both transparent and straightforward. We evaluate several factors, including the property’s location, necessary repairs, its current condition, and recent sales of comparable homes in the area. By analyzing these elements, we arrive at a fair price that is mutually beneficial for both parties.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: What sets us apart from traditional home-selling methods is that there are no fees or commissions when you sell your property directly to us. In contrast, listing your property can incur fees of up to 6% from your proceeds. We will provide you with an offer, and if it meets your needs, we can purchase your house with no hassles and no fees. Additionally, we often cover the closing costs. Our profit is made after we handle any necessary repairs. We assume the risks associated with selling, so once we purchase your home, the responsibility shifts to us. You can walk away free from the burdens of the property and its payments, all while receiving cash in hand.
Q: Is there any obligation associated with submitting my information?
A: There is no obligation on your part. Once you provide us with some details about your property, we will review the information and may schedule a call to gather further insights. We will then present you with a fair all-cash offer that benefits both parties. Ultimately, the decision is entirely yours, and we respect your choice in determining what is right for you.
