Cash Home Buyers in Philadelphia: Your Questions

We take your contact details and connect your request with our local buyer. The buyer speaks with you, looks at the house and makes a no-obligation cash offer. You decide whether to accept the proposed terms. A title company or closing attorney handles the closing if you move ahead with the buyer.

A direct cash sale is a way to sell a house to an investor. Check who the purchaser is, read the written agreement and ask the buyer to explain its conditions. Confirm which title company or closing attorney will handle the transaction. Ask your own attorney about legal terms you do not understand before signing.

The amount depends on your house, its condition and the local market. Our local buyer considers repairs, recent nearby sales and the costs of holding and reselling the property. A cash sale trades some price for speed, certainty and no repairs. Ask the buyer to explain the property details behind the proposed amount.

A direct sale to our local buyer has no agent commission. Read the purchase agreement for the costs assigned to each party, and ask the buyer about any expense you do not recognize. The title company or closing attorney can walk you through the closing statement so you can see what applies to your sale.

Closing costs are specified in the purchase agreement for you to review before signing. Request a clear list of what is covered in the proposed agreement. Have the title company or closing attorney explain the closing statement, including any property obligations that need to be addressed as part of the sale.

You can sell as-is without making repairs or cleaning for the buyer. Describe the house as it is, including known damage or unfinished projects. The buyer reviews that condition when considering the purchase. There is no need to stage rooms or arrange an open house for a direct sale.

The title company or closing attorney identifies liens or back taxes during the title review and works through how they would be addressed at closing. Tell the buyer about obligations you know about. The closing professional can explain the requirements for your property; unresolved title issues may need attention before a sale can proceed.

Tell the buyer and the closing professional that a mortgage remains on the property. The title company or closing attorney obtains the payoff information and explains how the balance would be handled through the closing. Ask that professional to review the closing statement with you so you understand how the mortgage affects your sale.

Whether a sale can proceed depends on who has authority to sell and what the estate requires. Ask the estate attorney or relevant court about your situation, and let the title company or closing attorney review the ownership documents. We can take your property details so the buyer can discuss the house while those questions are addressed.

You can discuss an occupied rental with our local buyer without first preparing it for a public listing. Explain the tenancy and arrange any property access with the buyer. Ask an attorney about the lease, required notices and tenant rights in your situation before agreeing to terms that affect the people living there.

You choose a closing date with the buyer, once the title work is done. Tell the buyer about your moving plans or other scheduling needs during the property discussion. The title company or closing attorney can explain what documents and title matters must be addressed before the closing can take place.

You can leave unwanted items if the buyer agrees to accept them with the property. Identify what you want to leave during the property review, including large furniture or stored belongings. Put the arrangement in the written agreement so you and the buyer have the same understanding about the condition at handover.

Asking for a cash offer does not require you to accept it. You decide whether the buyer's written proposal fits your plans for the property. Ask questions about the terms before making that choice. If you want legal guidance about a purchase agreement, have your attorney review it before you sign.

Our local buyer is an investor who purchases houses directly, as-is. We collect your contact details so that buyer can speak with you about the property and make the cash offer. The investor is the purchaser named in the sale agreement, and a title company or closing attorney handles the closing with you and the buyer.
