subject: Find A Qualified Buyer For Your Home [print this page] Believe it or not, the fastest way to sell a house quickly is to make a decision about how important it is to sell it fast. Getting to the point about your real needs and prioritizing them is the very first step to success if you really want to sell your house. When you see your priorities in writing, on a notebook page or a digital screen, you will quickly be able to see your top priority. When you own your house with your spouse, partner or other legal owner, sometimes people have a difference of opinion on the top priority. For example, one seller may want to hold out for the highest price, and another may simply want to sell immediately. Both sellers might include each other's top priority on his or her list, but different priorities can stall the process for sure. Negotiation between owners of a house in order to determine a sales price can be more difficult than negotiating with a buyer when the time comes.
Usually everyone agrees that only one thing is needed to sell a house quickly, and that is to find an interested buyer who is also qualified to close immediately. That is easy to say, but considerably harder to achieve. Finding the perfectly qualified buyer immediately can be challenging. If you are waiting for your perfect buyer to show up because your house is listed on the MLS, statistics show that you will be waiting a while in the present marketplace. The truth is, you probably won't sell a home fast by just waiting for a sale. Fortunately, there's something you can do about it.
My suggestion is to call a real estate investor. Since I am in the business of paying cash and closing quickly when I buy a house, I am acquainted with real estate investors all over the county who also pay cash and close quickly. When you want to find a buyer to who will take care of all the details and costs of closing as well as close quickly, you may want to call an investor first. Call an investor to come over and look at your house by reading the real estate classifieds in your local newspaper and weekly shoppers, and by noticing billboards and online forums. And I have found investors who pay cash and close quickly by driving through the neighborhoods where I own property looking for "For Rent" signs to get the owners' contact information. Rental houses are usually owned by investors and some of them will pay cash for houses like yours. When you want to sell a home quickly you may want to call some real estate investors in order to accomplish your goal.
