Benefits of Selling Your Home Without a Realtor

No Commission or Realtor Fees

One of the biggest benefits of not working with a realtor is simply that you don’t have to pay them. This means you save money on realtor fees and commission. You also won’t have any closing costs to pay or any fees or expenses related to appraisals or inspections. 

When you work with a realtor, closing costs typically cost the seller two percent of the sale while commissions paid to the real estate agent can be up to six percent of the sale price of your home. These charges and fees can quickly add up, but when you sell your house directly to Joe Homebuyer LA, you won’t have to worry about any of these expenses. In fact, we even guarantee that there won’t be any hidden fees along the way.

Quicker, More Flexible Closings

When you sell your house with a real estate agent, closing typically takes place a month or more after closing, and there are many factors that can cause the date to be pushed back. Between the offer being accepted and your closing date, you may have to renegotiate with the buyer depending on the results of their inspection and the house appraisal. Additionally, unless the buyer is paying cash, which is rare in most circumstances, closing will be contingent upon the buyer’s financing being approved by their lender. Also, even though you have accepted a buyer’s offer, you’ll have to continue to pay your mortgage and all your utilities until the after closing takes place.

When you sell your home for cash to Joe Homebuyer LA, closing can take as little as one week, with the average being two, after you accept our offer. We’ll even allow you to choose the closing date that works best for you. Also, if you need additional time to move out of your house, we’ll make arrangements to allow you to have two extra weeks at your house after closing is complete. When you sell your home to us, you won’t have to worry about inspections, appraisals, renegotiations, or the closing date being moved due to lender issues. We make it our goal to make closing quick, simple, and flexible so it works best for you and your family.

Sell Your Home in As-Is Condition

Another benefit of selling your home as-is to Joe Homebuyer LA is that you won’t have to make repairs or clean before moving out. When selling your home in the traditional manner with a real estate agent, the buyer may ask you to complete repairs after the appraisal or inspection. This not only costs you money, but can also push back your closing timeline. When you sell your Los Angeles home for cash to us, we’ll accept the house as-is without requesting any repairs or cleaning. 

Work With Direct Los Angeles Home Buyers

Working directly with the Los Angeles home buyers at Joe Homebuyer LA also means you don’t have to worry about preparing your home for showings and open houses. Depending on the market, it can take anywhere from a couple of days to a few months to find a buyer who is willing to pay an acceptable price for your home. 

When you work with Joe Homebuyer LA, we will meet with you at your home once to check out your property, but you will not be expected to prepare the house in any way. And, since we are direct buyers, you won’t have to worry about showing your house to any other potential buyers. Instead, we’ll make an instant cash offer that you can choose to accept on the spot.
