Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any questions, you’re not alone—many people do. Below is a selection of frequently asked questions, along with our responses. Should you have any further inquiries, please feel free to reach out to us at any time. We are more than happy to assist you.
Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually purchasing it?
A: Excellent question. We are not real estate agents and do not list properties. Here at Miss Home Buyer, we are professional home buyers: We purchase houses that meet our specific criteria, and since we do not rely on bank financing, you can rest assured that we are fully capable of closing the deal. After the purchase, we may choose to repair the property and resell it to another homeowner or retain it as a rental property.
Q: What sets you apart from a real estate agent?
A: A real estate agent’s primary responsibilities include listing properties and finding potential buyers. This process can take a long time because the average property in many locations takes four to six months to sell. An agent receives a commission, often 3–6% of the sale price, if they are successful in putting you in touch with a buyer. For example, on a $100,000 property, you would pay between $3,000 and $6,000 in agent commissions. In contrast, we are professional home buyers who buy houses right away, providing a quicker and more effective alternative to listing or waiting for a buyer.
Real estate brokers offer vital services to people who are willing to wait more than four months to sell and are okay paying commission fees from the transaction. However, we operate in a different way. Since we are professional real estate buyers, we purchase homes directly from you. If you make an all-cash payment, we can decide to buy your house in a few days, sometimes even the same day. We assume the risk of purchasing the property, making any necessary repairs, and marketing it to possible buyers as part of our business plan.
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: Many of the homes we purchase are acquired below market value, allowing us to resell them at a profit to another homeowner. Our goal is to secure a fair discount on the property. Based on our experience, most sellers are not necessarily seeking a large profit; rather, they value the convenience of a cash offer, a fast closing process (without the need for financing), and the elimination of the time, effort, and costs associated with repairs or agent fees. If you’re looking for a quick and hassle-free sale, we can work together to agree on a mutually beneficial price. Our no-obligation pricing guarantee means you are not required to move forward with our offer, but it’s helpful to know what we can provide.
Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: It’s a great question, and we’re happy to explain our process. We are forthright and honest in our offer. The location of the property, any necessary repairs, its current condition, and the cost of comparable homes that have sold in the area are just a few of the many factors we carefully take into account. We consider all of these aspects when determining a reasonable offer, including the current situation of the market and your expectations as a homeowner.
Q: Is there a fee or commission associated with working with you?
A: Selling your house to Miss Home Buyer involves no fees or commissions, in contrast to traditional techniques where listing fees might amount to as much as 6% of your sale price. We provide you a fair quote, and if it meets your needs, we take care of everything without adding to your costs or creating any issues. We may even cover the closing expenses. We can only turn a profit after repairing the property and selling it again. When you sell to us, you may leave with money in hand and peace of mind since we take away the hazards and financial limitations that come with property ownership.
Q: Am I committing when I send in my information?
A: You have no responsibilities. We will examine the details you submit regarding your property, schedule a follow-up meeting for further discussion, and then present you with a competitive all-cash offer. The decision to sell your home to us is entirely up to you. We encourage you to make the best option for yourself and respect your choice.
