  • Will you pay market value for my house?

    Our franchisees are, first and foremost, real estate investors. Our franchisees invest time and money to renovate houses and make money once the house is back on the market. After answering your question and evaluating the condition of your house, our local franchisee can make a fair, no-obligation cash offer that is based on the expected market value of your house after a full renovation, discounting the renovation time and costs.

    While we buy at a discount, selling to We Buy Ugly Houses provides a number of benefits to the seller. These include the following:

    • There’s no need to deal with realtors or realtor commissions.
    • We cover normal closing costs. We pay cash — so there are never delays from banks, and deals don’t fall through because of financing.
    • We buy “as is,” so you don’t have to worry about repairs or cleanup.
    • We close on your schedule when you’re ready.
    • If you’re in a rush, we can close in as little as three weeks, so you can move on.

  • How do you determine the cash offer you'll make for my home?

    After buying 125,000 homes, we have estimating down to a science. Before making you an offer, the franchisee in your market will evaluate a number of factors, including the following:

    • The current condition of your house.
    • The approximate cost of repairs and renovations required.
    • The amount of time it will take to renovate your house.
    • The future “post-renovation” value of your house, compared to other homes in the area.
    • The amount of real estate commissions required to sell your home after renovation.
    • The cost of maintaining the house until it’s ready to sell, including insurance, utilities, taxes, loan payments, and more.

     
    The estimated future “post-renovation” value of your renovated house, minus these costs, helps us arrive at the cash offer that we make.
