Selling To Present Day Properties vs. Listing With A Local Agent
Even in a seller’s market, it’s smart to look at all of your home selling options. Write down the goals you need to meet with the sale of your Raleigh house and then see which option helps you get there. While you may be able to get a top-dollar listing with a local real estate agent, that doesn’t always mean more money in your pocket at close. Read more below:
| Selling with a Local Real Estate Agent | SOLD To  | |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions / Fees: | Up to 6%, paid by you, the seller | Absolutely zero! |
| Who Pays Closing Costs? | 2% on average is paid by you, the seller | We pay all costs! |
| Inspection & Financing Contingency*: | Yes, sales can . | None required |
| Appraisal Needed: | Yes, the sale is often subject to appraisal. | NONE – We make cash offers |
| Average Days Until Sold: | +/- 91 Days | We provide immediate cash offers. |
| Number of Showings: | Varies | 1 (Just Us) |
| Closing Date: | 30 to 60 +/- days after accepting a buyer’s offer | The date of your choice. |
| Who Pays For Repairs? | Negotiated during the inspection period | We pay for all repairs! |
*An inspection contingency lets the buyer have time to do an inspection and back out of the sale or negotiate a new price if there are repairs that need to be done. If you can’t come to an agreement with the buyer, the buyer has the right to back out of the sale. Similarly, a financing contingency gives the buyer the wiggle room to back out of the purchase if they can’t obtain a loan or if the home doesn’t appraise for the value that the bank needs to close the loan.
Here at Present Day Properties, we don’t use bank financing so you don’t have to worry about our ability to close on a deal.
Work The Numbers And See Which Way Helps You Reach Your Goals
When you sit down with the numbers, you can begin to see the real benefits that selling a NC house directly for cash can offer. At Present Day Properties, we won’t be able to offer you full retail value for your home, but we offer other benefits that may override that traditional home sale.
Such as…
From offer to close in as soon as possible.
Avoid paying one more month of mortgages, taxes, insurance, utilities, and more! If you list your Raleigh area house or property, you may need to wait over 60+ days to close. The cost of holding the property during that time adds up fast! But when you sell your home directly to us, you could walk away with cash in your bank account in as little as 14 days.
We take care of repairs and upgrades so you don’t have to!
Let us save you the stress and expense of trying to get your house “market-ready”. We don’t care if your basement is filled with junk (we’ve seen worse!) or if there’s a hole in the roof that only has a tarp to protect it (a complete fixer? we love projects!). Present Day Properties would like to make an offer on your house today.
Closing fees? We’ve got you covered.
Because we buy homes for cash directly from NC residents, we are able to make your selling process easy and hassle-free. This includes paying for all closing costs, minus any mortgage payoff or other encumbrances on the property. This can save you up to 2% of your final sales price!
When you add up the money you’ll save on commissions, fees, and holding costs, and our guarantee of a no-hassle experience, it’s no wonder why so many Raleigh homeowners have decided to sell to a professional house buyer is the right option for them.
