Take a second and look around your home. What do you see? Could you put it on the market today and feel good about it? Or could it use some work (or a lot of it)? Getting a home fixed up can take a lot of time, money, and effort. What if you could sell your home without fixing it and still get a fair price for it? Have you considered selling your home as-is?
Weigh the Pros and Cons of Selling As-Is
As with any home selling option, you should always consider the pros and cons of selling as-is before committing to it. On the one hand, your home’s condition directly affects what buyers are willing to pay for it. The worse the condition of your home, the lower a fair offer will be. Your buyer pool will also be more limited since many buyers won’t want a project house. On the other hand, you could save a lot of time and money by not repairing or renovating your home before selling it. Plus, some buyers prefer project homes out there–you just have to find them.
Get Your Home Inspected
To sell your home as-is and avoid being liable for repairs after the sale goes through, you must disclose all known defects. It’s pretty hard to disclose something you don’t know about though, and pleading ignorance won’t always get you off the hook. Save yourself the trouble get your home inspected before trying to sell as-is. That way you’ll have a pretty good idea of what you need to disclose to your buyer.

Speaking of buyers, you’ll need to find someone who is okay with a fixer-upper home.

Selling as-is is a great solution for homeowners who need to sell their homes but aren’t in a position to get them in perfect condition for one reason or another. This is a huge relief for those whose homes may have water damage or even fire damage–both very expensive problems to fix. Try not to let your home’s condition stress you out. You can sell as-is, especially if you know who to sell to (hint: Sierra Housing Solutions is a great choice).
