How to find an independent cash home buyer

How to ask for an independent cash quote

If you are looking for an easier way to sell, Homelight’s simple sales platform can connect you to the country’s largest network of pre-approved review cash buyers.

Just answer some quick questions about your detached home and you can receive a no-obligation cash offer within 24 hours. If you accept, the sale may be completed in just 10 days, and you have the flexibility to choose a 30-day move-out date after closing. No repairs, installments or open houses required.

While cash offers are usually less than what you earn on the open market, traditional sales usually come with fees up to 9% to 10% of the sale price. Depending on your priorities, selling cash can ultimately save you time and money.

How much are independent cash home buyers willing to pay?

Cash investors and homebuyers often buy homes at insufficient market value, but they provide sellers with the advantage of fast, direct sales. For example, many property slippers follow the 70% rule – up to 70% of the home’s post-repair value (ARV) can be provided after considering the cost of renovation.

Market conditions also play an important role in the amount of cash offer. In hot markets, quotes may climb to 80% or even 85% of ARV due to increased competition. In slower markets, offers tend to drop.

At present, the independent housing market remains strong. House prices are rising significantly, and although inventory is growing and sales are slowing slightly, conditions are usually still favorable to sellers. If you are looking for a quick and easy process, this makes it a good time to consider cash selling options.
