Too Many Repairs?

The benefits of selling your fixer-upper to a cash buyer

Selling your home can be headache-inducing. Advertisements, Realtor fees, and home inspections are both time-consuming and costly. If you’re attempting to sell a house that needs a lot of work, getting your home in showroom condition might not be worth it financially.

In preparation of selling your property, you must be able to answer this question: will I receive more money once I fix a house or sell it as-is? If finances are lacking and major repairs are necessary, the question becomes how do you sell a house when you cannot afford to fix it?

Renovations and Custom Homes with Too Many Repairs

Making your home attractive to potential homebuyers is necessary for a top-dollar sale. Cosmetic issues like wall color, replacing appliances, and chipped floors are cheap and might not hinder a sale. Yet, structural defects are expensive repairs that still must be made.

Sometimes, the most major repairs are only unsurfaced after a thorough home inspection.

In many cases, it’s easier to sell a house fast with repairs. But how do you make structural repairs without bleeding your wallet dry? Some sellers utilize contractors. Many contractors are equipped to handle minor damage and short renovations. Too many, though, have transformed beautiful homes into ugly Frankenhouses.

They offer the buyer dysfunctional floor plans and finishes. They also offer awful color schemes and downright thoughtless room repurposing. They’re unappealing to the average homebuyer and, thus, stay on the market for longer periods of time.

Using contractors to help sell a house that needs a lot of work comes with a steeper price tag. It also comes with a longer transition period between listing and closing. Best case scenario: your contractor does exceptional work within a guaranteed allotted timeframe.

Do you want to fix those major structural defects like replacing your roof, deck, or septic system? It'l mean shelling out thousands of dollars before even listing your home.

Renovating your home with contractors before selling can also deter potential buyers. When confronting cosmetic and particular major repairs, homeowners are faced with home-altering decisions.
