Job relocation is a major transition for you and your family. The process gets more complicated, however, when you put a 2nd house and mortgage into play to make the move possible.
Getting rid of that old mortgage is essential to your success in your new home because the financial drain will disappear. How fast this happens can be up to you. Sure, you could list your property. But that takes time. Who wants to keep paying a mortgage for months when they don't live in the property? In addition, what are the chances of the home being broken into by squatters?
Listing your house with an agency is not your answer. You need to sell now, so sell your house for cash to a home buyer. We buy houses fast and are prepared to attack every possible situation with the urgency it deserves. As a cash home buyer, we can purchase homes for cash regardless of whether they need repairs. If you were to list the property on the MLS, you need to understand that a buyer who needs a bank loan may not be able to purchase the home. Retail lenders don't authorize loans on houses that need repairs.
We Buy Houses Cash
Cash home buyers use private money, hard money, or company cash to close the transaction and allow you to walk with no mortgage payment holding you back. One less thing to worry about while starting your new life at your new job in your new home.
Don't sign a listing agreement. Let us make you an offer on your house instead, and you can choose to accept it or walk at any time. No obligation required unless you sign.
Job Relocation has Many Moving Parts
Traditionally when you move, you go through a moving checklist to ensure a smoother transition. The list would contain tasks such as switching over medical records to the new doctor for everyone in the household, having utilities turned off on moving day or right after, and so forth. The list gets even more complicated when adding the job relocation because you've got to plan for a start day after everything else is finished. That's the best-case scenario, anyway.
One of the biggest tasks on your moving list includes the planning for a second mortgage payment. When you sell, you need to take "days on market" or "DOM" into consideration. This is an average number of days it takes for houses to sell in the area, and having this info helps you predict what to expect. But wait...this number isn't always accurate and there's a reason for it.
DOM info wouldn't tell you the condition of the home or situation of the seller. The number can be inaccurate because it calculates things as they are. In a subdivision with 50 houses, 5 of them can be owned by a single landlord. That landlord decides to retire and takes a little cut in his equity for a fast sale. This sale will have 5 separate houses put into the days on market equation and modify that number, but the situation was not an arms-length sale. The seller had a motivating factor.
If you were to list your home with a Realtor based on the days on market, then you may be putting yourself in an unexpected financial situation. When that date comes and passes, you may still be holding the bill on the 2nd mortgage payment and you hadn't planned this strain on your finances.
We want to buy your house with cash, and close fast. In many cases, we can close in just days. We typically get things done between 5 and 45 days. As cash home buyer, we can do this nationwide and work with all types of seller situations, and property types.
