“How Do I Get Cash for My Vacant House?”

Most buyers today want move-in-ready houses. Even buyers that want to take on a few projects prefer renovations or upgrades that are cosmetic and not labor-intensive or expensive. This is why it’s hard to sell a vacant house in the current real estate market. So, if you need to sell your vacant house fast, you may want to consider a cash sale over a traditional sale.

Ernest Buys Homes works with sellers that have difficulty selling vacant houses. Our team buys houses as-is regardless of how long they’ve been empty. We can do a quick walkthrough of your property, make a fair cash offer, and close the deal quickly. You can finally sell your house and walk away with no strings attached.

Why Is It So Hard to Sell My Vacant House?

There are several reasons why buyers, investors, and agents choose to ignore a vacant house – and some of them are actually good reasons.

Neglect

Many homeowners have difficulty keeping up with their occupied house. They may not want to spend the extra effort or cash to maintain a vacant house. As a result, the house stays empty and deteriorates over time.

Age

It is rare to see a brand new empty house that has a lot to offer. Most vacant houses are older homes that are too outdated for current real estate trends.

Legal Issues

A house in perfectly good condition can remain empty if there are legal issues holding up a sale. For instance, the owners may be going through probate, divorce, foreclosure, bankruptcy, or other legal issues that have dragged on for several months or years.

External Problems

Sometimes there is nothing wrong with the property. However, there may be other issues keeping it from selling – inconvenient location, rough neighborhood, poor real estate market, or upside-down mortgage.

Squatting

Squatting is nothing more than extended trespassing. However, due to laws in some states, you can’t just kick a squatter out of your house. The longer they reside in your house, the more difficult it is to get them out.

Extensive Damage

A storm, fire, or vandalism may have caused extensive damage to your property. The damage may be severe enough that it costs you thousands of dollars to repair. Instead of repairi8ng the damage, you are trying to sell the houses as-is.

We Work with Home Sellers in All Types of Situation

When it comes to selling a vacant house, your options may be limited. The main reason for this is that you are competing with sellers that have move-in-ready houses. However, you still have the same options as any other seller.

  • Option 1: Hire a real estate agent and do a traditional sale on the market
  • Option 2: Attempt a For Sale by Owner without hiring a real estate agent.
  • Option 3: Sell your house for cash to our team at  Ernest Buys Homes.

Option one and two may not be a good idea if your house has already been on the market and you can’t find a buyer. Plus, you may not have the money you need to make repairs or upgrades.

You Can Still Sell Your Vacant House for Cash!

No matter how you look at it, a cash sale is the smart choice. A cash sale is a private transaction directly between you and our buyers. You don’t hire a real estate agent, list your house, or go through a long closing process. There are several benefits to selling your house as-is for cash.

  • Make no repairs or upgrades – sell your house as-is.
  • Save money on closing costs and realtor commissions.
  • Sell your house regardless of your personal or financial situation.
  • Sell your house and close when you want.
  • Sell your vacant house off the market.
  • And last, sell your house to a pre-qualified buyer that has cash.
