Frequently asked questions
That depends on the agreement. When you sell with SellMyHouse.co, typical closing costs are paid on your behalf. The buyer’s side may have its own costs. What matters for you as the seller is what comes out of your proceeds, and the terms of any offer you receive will spell that out.
A seller’s net sheet is an estimate of what you’ll walk away with after all costs and fees are deducted from the sale price. Your agent or a title professional can prepare one based on your situation. It’s a useful planning tool before you decide how to sell.
It depends on the terms of the sale. When you sell with SellMyHouse.co, we pay typical closing costs. Transfer taxes and recording fees set by state and local law still apply. There’s no agent commission deducted from your offer.
Some costs are negotiable and some aren’t. Agent commissions are negotiable. Transfer taxes and recording fees are set by state and local law and not negotiable. Title insurance premiums and escrow fees vary by provider and can sometimes be shopped. A real estate attorney or agent can help you understand which fees have flexibility.
Most seller closing costs come out of your proceeds at closing rather than being paid out of pocket beforehand. You’ll receive a closing statement that shows each fee and what your net proceeds will be.
On a traditional sale, sellers typically pay agent commission, title and escrow fees, owner’s title insurance, transfer taxes, and prorated property taxes. HOA transfer fees may apply if the property is in an association. The total varies depending on location, sale price, and whether there’s an agent involved.
Not necessarily. An overpriced home that sits on the market often ends up selling below a correctly priced one. And when you factor in avoiding carrying costs, repairs, and commissions, a cash sale can be competitive with a traditional listing.
Overpricing is the single biggest factor. Poor listing photos, limited showing availability, and deferred maintenance can also slow sales significantly.
If you’re listing on the MLS, repairs and presentation matter. If you’re selling to a cash buyer, no repairs are needed. Cash buyers purchase as is.
Selling to a cash home buyer is one of the fastest methods. You skip prep, showings, and financing contingencies.
Cash sales can close much faster than a traditional listing. A traditional listing averages 30 to 60 days from accepted offer to closing, not counting time on the market before an offer comes in.
After a property visit, most cash home buyers can put an offer together fairly quickly. The timeline varies by buyer.
You’re never obligated to accept. If the offer doesn’t work for your situation, you can decline and explore other options. There’s no pressure and no cost to find out where things stand.
Most cash home buyers schedule a property visit before finalizing their offer. This lets them see the home’s condition firsthand and make sure their offer reflects what they’re taking on.
Typically, yes, because the buyer is taking the home as is and pricing in repair and resale costs. How much lower depends on the home’s condition, the local market, and how the buyer runs their numbers.
It varies by buyer and situation. Some buyers are open to conversation, especially if you have questions about how they arrived at their number. It’s always fair to ask.
No. Cash home buyers purchase homes in almost any condition. You don’t have to fix anything, clean out the property, or spend money getting it ready. The buyer’s offer reflects the home’s current condition.
Cash sales can close faster than traditional sales because there’s no lender timeline to wait on. The exact timing depends on the buyer and your situation. At SellMyHouse.co, we work to close on a schedule that works for you.
Compare the cash offer against what you’d actually take home from a traditional sale. Factor in what you’d spend on repairs, agent commissions, closing costs, and the time the home would be on the market. A cash offer that looks lower on the surface can sometimes come out ahead once those costs are accounted for.
Some do and some don’t. Cash buyers aren’t required to have an inspection, and many purchase homes as is without one. If a cash buyer does request an inspection, it’s typically to understand the home’s condition, not because a lender is requiring it.
Not necessarily. A cash offer can provide a faster, simpler sale, but it isn’t always the highest offer. What makes the most sense depends on your home, your timeline, and what matters most to you.
If you need to sell quickly or your home needs repairs, a cash offer may be a good fit because you can typically sell as is without waiting for traditional financing. If your home is in good condition and you have more time, listing it on the open market may give you a chance to receive a higher offer.
Ask for proof of funds and look for a buyer with a track record. Experienced cash home buyers will be transparent about how they calculate offers and what the closing process looks like.
It depends on the state. Some states require an attorney at closing; others use title companies. A cash buyer will explain the local process when you review the offer.
Yes. Cash offers are not a take-it-or-leave-it situation. You can ask questions, counter, and walk away if the offer doesn’t work for you.
Cash buyers price based on the home’s condition and market value. Most offers come in between 70% and 85% of market value. In exchange, you get speed, certainty, and no repairs or commissions.

Louisiana uses an Act of Sale instead of the standard deed used in most other states. It’s a formal document prepared and recorded by a licensed Louisiana notary. The result is the same as a deed. Your cash home buyer will work with a closing notary and handle the coordination on your behalf.
Yes. Cash home buyers are used to working with New Orleans’s older homes. They don’t need the home to meet a traditional lender’s condition requirements, so the age or condition of the house won’t stop the sale.
Not with a cash buyer. Cash buyers don’t need a traditional lender’s approval and aren’t required to carry flood insurance to make the purchase, so a flood zone designation that could stall a traditional sale doesn’t get in the way here.
No. Cash home buyers purchase homes in almost any condition. You don’t have to make repairs, clean out belongings, or do anything to get the house ready.
Yes. Georgia law requires that a licensed attorney oversees residential closings. Fortunately, your cash buyer will coordinate with a local closing attorney to handle the paperwork for you.

Cash sales typically close faster than traditional sales because there’s no traditional lender approval process or appraisal involved. We’ll work on matching you with a buyer who can fit your timeline.
Yes. Cash home buyers are used to working with older and historic properties, including homes that would need Historic District Board of Review approval and a Certificate of Appropriateness before a traditional buyer’s repairs could even start. Selling to a cash buyer skips that process entirely, since no repairs are required before closing.
No. Cash home buyers purchase homes in almost any condition. You don’t have to make repairs, clean out belongings, or do anything to get the house ready.
Cash sales typically move faster than traditional sales because there’s no traditional lender approval process or appraisal involved. We’ll match you with a buyer who can fit your timeline.
The Act of Sale is how real estate transfers in Louisiana. Instead of a standard deed, the state uses this formal document, which is prepared and recorded by a licensed notary to achieve the same result. Your cash home buyer will work with a closing notary and coordinate the process on your behalf.
No. Cash home buyers are used to working with older homes in Baton Rouge’s established neighborhoods. They don’t need the property to pass a lender’s condition inspection, so foundation issues, outdated systems, or major repairs won’t stop the sale.
Yes. Cash buyers don’t need to satisfy a traditional lender’s requirements around flood history or prior damage. A home that’s difficult to finance the traditional way because of its flood history isn’t a problem for a cash buyer.
No. Cash home buyers purchase homes in almost any condition. You don’t have to make repairs, clean out belongings, or do anything to get the house ready.
Not typically. Opendoor focuses on homes in good condition. Significant repairs are usually reflected in steep deductions or an outright rejection.
Yes. Both platforms are free to request offers from, with no obligation to accept.
Opendoor’s service fee is roughly comparable to a listing agent commission, but sellers also pay repair deductions and closing costs on top of it. Since Opendoor no longer publishes a fixed fee percentage, the exact total depends on your specific offer.
Yes. There’s no obligation to accept any offer, and requesting multiple offers costs nothing.
Selling to a cash buyer is the fastest option, as closing often happens in a matter of weeks. FSBO and agent-listed sales typically take 60 to 90 days or more from listing to close.
On paper, a well-executed agent-listed sale in a competitive market gets the highest gross offer. In practice, commissions, repairs, and carrying costs reduce the net. A cash offer at 80-85% of market value with no fees can produce a comparable net outcome.
In most states, sellers can sign remotely or in advance. Confirm with your title company or closing attorney.
You’ll typically need your mortgage payoff statement, property deed, disclosure forms, HOA documents (if applicable), and a government-issued ID for closing.
A cash sale can often close in a matter of weeks. A traditional listing typically takes 30 to 45 days for the closing process itself, and that’s on top of however long the house sits on the market before finding a buyer.
A vacant house still requires insurance, utilities, and basic maintenance. If it sits empty for an extended period, vandalism and weather damage become real risks. A cash sale that closes before or shortly after your move removes that exposure.
A cash home buyer typically purchases the property as is. You don’t have to make repairs before closing. The offer accounts for the property’s current condition.
Yes. You set the closing date. That’s the main advantage of a cash sale when you’re relocating: the timeline is yours, not the lender’s.
A cash sale typically closes faster than a traditional sale, which helps. You’ll know what you’re getting from the offer before you commit, so you can plan your next purchase around a real number.
Not necessarily. Many closing procedures can be handled remotely through a title company, or you can sign documents before you leave. Ask the title company about remote or mail-away closing options.
Yes. A cash home buyer can often close faster than a traditional financed sale and, more importantly, on a date you choose. You’re not waiting on mortgage underwriting or an appraisal to clear.
In most cases, it takes no longer than selling a house without a lien. We can close on your schedule. The lien payoff is handled at closing by the title company, so it typically doesn’t slow things down the way it might in a financed sale.
That’s a situation where talking to a title professional or real estate attorney first makes sense. In some cases there are options, like negotiating the lien down or exploring other paths. We can help you understand what a cash home buyer would offer so you have a full picture before you decide anything.
Often, yes. Cash home buyers in our network are familiar with liens and have worked through these situations before. The title company confirms what’s owed, manages the payoffs, and makes sure the title is clean before the sale closes.
Yes. The amount owed on the lien comes out of your proceeds at closing. If there’s little equity left after the lien payoff and other costs, you may walk away with less than you expected. It’s worth knowing where you stand before you commit to selling.
The lien is typically paid off at closing from your sale proceeds. The title company confirms the amount owed, pays the lienholder directly, and the lien is released before the deed transfers. If the lien is larger than your available equity, that’s a more complicated situation. A title professional can help you understand your options.
In most cases, yes. Liens don’t stop a sale. They just have to be resolved before the title transfers to the new owner. In many situations, that happens at closing. A cash home buyer can often purchase the property and let the title company handle the payoff as part of the process.
No. Requesting and reviewing an offer is completely free, and there’s no obligation to accept it.
Most homeowners hear back within 24 hours of requesting an offer. From there, you close on your schedule.
No. A cash home buyer typically buys the house as is, so you don’t need to spend money on repairs before you sell.
Liens typically get resolved as part of closing, using the sale proceeds. A title company or real estate attorney can confirm what liens exist on your property before you sell.
It depends on how much equity you have after your mortgage and any liens are paid off. If there’s little or no equity left, selling may not cover everything you owe.
Yes. Many homeowners sell for exactly this reason. Once you close, you can use the proceeds toward whatever bills or debt you’re dealing with.
Probably not. Standard homeowner’s policies often limit or exclude coverage after a property has been vacant for 30 to 60 days. It’s worth a quick call to your insurance agent to check your specific policy and see if a vacancy endorsement makes sense.
Not for a cash buyer. Whether the house has been empty for three months or three years, a cash home buyer can typically purchase it as is. Longer vacancy may mean more deterioration, which the offer will reflect.
A cash home buyer can often purchase a property with open code violations or liens. The violations may be resolved from the sale proceeds at closing or accepted by the buyer.
In most cases, yes, once the property has been properly transferred to you through the estate. If the property is still in the deceased person’s name, it may need to go through probate first.
In most cases, delinquent property taxes are paid from the sale proceeds at closing before you receive your net amount. The title company handles the payoff as part of the closing process.
Yes. A cash home buyer typically purchases the property in its current condition. You don’t have to make repairs, clean it out, or stage it before closing.
No. Cash home buyers typically purchase houses as is, so you don’t need to spend money on repairs before requesting an offer.
Most homeowners hear back within 24 hours of requesting an offer. If your sale requires short-sale approval, the overall timeline will depend on your lender’s review and approval process.
Not by itself. If you owe more than your house is worth, a cash buyer doesn’t eliminate the difference between the sale price and your mortgage balance. If a short sale is required, your lender still needs to approve it.
In many cases, yes. If you owe more than your house is worth, your lender may need to approve a short sale before the sale can move forward.
In some cases, yes. If you want to sell an entire portfolio, reach out and tell us what you have. A cash home buyer in our network may be able to purchase multiple properties, though each offer is based on the individual property’s condition and situation.
A cash home buyer typically purchases as is. You’re not required to make repairs before closing. The offer reflects the property’s current condition.
In most cases, yes. A cash home buyer can often purchase a property with code violations or open liens. These are typically resolved at closing through the sale proceeds.
A cash sale typically closes faster than a traditional listing. The fewer months between accepting an offer and closing, the less unpaid rent accumulates. A cash buyer purchasing a property with a non-paying tenant will factor that into the offer.
State and local laws vary, but most jurisdictions require the landlord to provide some form of notice to tenants before or during a sale. A real estate attorney in your area can tell you what’s required where your property is located.
In most cases, yes. The tenant’s lease transfers to the new owner at closing. A cash home buyer can often purchase the property with tenants in place, so in most cases you don’t have to evict first.
The mortgage doesn’t go away when the owner dies. The estate is typically responsible for continuing payments while probate is open. At closing, the mortgage is paid off from the sale proceeds before the remainder goes to the estate. If the mortgage balance is higher than the sale price, the estate may need to negotiate with the lender.
In some cases, yes. In states with simplified administration, the executor may be able to sell without waiting for probate to fully close. In others, the court must confirm the sale first. The buyer can often sign a purchase agreement early and wait for the confirmation hearing to complete the closing.
Not necessarily. The executor generally has the authority to sell without unanimous heir approval, but heirs must usually be notified. If heirs dispute the sale, it can create delays. A probate attorney can advise on the specific rules in your state.
Typically the executor named in the will or the administrator appointed by the court if there’s no will. They act on behalf of the estate and have a fiduciary duty to get fair value for the property.
It depends on the state and the complexity of the estate. Some states have expedited or independent administration that allows the executor to act quickly. Others require a confirmation hearing that can add months. The probate process itself can run from a few months to more than a year. A cash sale can reduce the time the house sits on the market once the executor has authority to sell.
Not always. If the property was held in a living trust, transferred via a transfer-on-death deed, or held in joint tenancy with right of survivorship, it may pass outside probate. When the property is in the deceased person’s name alone, it typically must go through probate before clear title can transfer to a buyer.
In most cases, yes. The executor or court-appointed administrator typically has authority to sell real property as part of settling the estate. Some states require court confirmation before the sale closes; others allow the executor to act independently. A probate attorney in your state can clarify what’s required.
It’s not required, but it’s worth consulting a real estate attorney in your state, particularly if the mold is extensive or has already been the subject of a prior disclosure dispute. State-specific disclosure rules vary and an attorney can help you understand your obligations.
In most cases, yes. Cash home buyers in our network often purchase properties with foundation issues, water-damaged framing, or other structural problems. The offer accounts for the repair cost.
In most cases, yes, especially to a cash home buyer. Black mold is a serious defect that must be disclosed. It often requires substantial remediation that a lender won’t waive. A cash buyer can purchase the property as is and take on the remediation themselves.
Costs vary widely depending on the scope and location of the mold. Minor surface mold may cost a few hundred dollars to remediate. Mold in wall cavities, HVAC systems, or structural members can cost $10,000 to $30,000 or more. A licensed mold inspector in your area can give you an accurate estimate.
A buyer’s lender will typically require a mold inspection as part of the financing process. If active mold is found, the lender usually requires a written remediation plan and proof of completed remediation before funding the loan. This can delay or kill the sale.
Yes. Mold is a material defect and must be disclosed in virtually every state. Selling as is does not eliminate your disclosure obligation. Failing to disclose known mold can expose you to a post-closing legal claim.
In most cases, yes, if you’re selling to a cash home buyer. A cash buyer has no lender requiring remediation before the loan funds. You must still disclose known mold to any buyer. The offer will reflect the condition of the house.
No, and this is one of the biggest reliefs for families dealing with an inherited house. Take anything you want to keep, and leave everything else exactly where it is. A cash home buyer will buy the house belongings and all, so there’s nothing left for you to sort, haul, or decide about under pressure.
Most homeowners hear back within 24 hours of requesting an offer. From there, you close on your schedule.
No. A cash home buyer usually buys the house as is, so you don’t need to make repairs or updates before you sell.
In many states, yes, once you’re named executor or administrator, though some states require court approval first. A probate attorney can confirm the rules where the property is located.
Often little or none. Your cost basis resets to the home’s fair market value on the date of death, so you’re typically only taxed on any increase in value after that. A tax professional can confirm your specific numbers.
In many cases, yes, though it depends on how the property was titled and your state’s rules. If the house was in a trust or had a transfer-on-death deed, probate may not be required at all. A probate attorney can confirm what applies to your situation.
No. Requesting and reviewing an offer is completely free, and there’s no obligation to accept it.
Most homeowners hear back within 24 hours of requesting an offer. From there, you close on your schedule. If speed is your main priority, in some cases we can close in under a month.
Selling for cash is often the most effective way to stop missed payments from piling up. There’s no typical mortgage approval or repairs to wait on, allowing you to close on your timeline.
If you can’t keep up with your mortgage, it’s worth contacting your lender to ask about options for pausing or reducing payments. Selling for cash can be the fastest option if you need to move quickly.

Yes. Cash home buyers in our network often purchase houses with major repair needs, code violations, fire or water damage, and more. The condition is factored into your offer, not a reason to turn you away.
Yes, if you’re married. Louisiana treats property acquired during a marriage as jointly owned by both spouses. That means both of you need to sign the closing documents, even if only one name is on the title. Your cash home buyer will make sure the closing is set up correctly.
The Act of Sale is how real estate transfers in Louisiana. Instead of a deed signed at a standard closing, Louisiana uses a formal document prepared and recorded by a licensed notary. It has the same result as a deed in other states. Your cash home buyer will work with a closing notary and coordinate the process on your behalf.

No. You don’t have to fix anything before closing. Cash home buyers purchase in almost any condition, including homes with older systems, flood risk, or years of deferred maintenance.
A cash buyer doesn’t have a traditional mortgage lender requiring flood insurance as part of the transaction, so flood zone designation doesn’t stop a cash sale the way it can stop a sale where the buyer needs a loan.
No. FHA and VA loans require lead paint disclosure and remediation in pre-1978 homes, which can add cost and delay to a traditional sale. A cash buyer doesn’t have those requirements, so the age of your home won’t hold up the sale.

The core process is the same everywhere: a free walkthrough, an offer you can review with no pressure, and a closing date you choose. What changes by state is behind the scenes, like whether an attorney is required at closing, what transfer taxes apply, and what disclosure rules affect the paperwork.
Each cash home buyer in our network sets their own offer based on your property’s condition, location, and their own criteria for that purchase.

Yes, in most cases. Selling your house and your insurance claim are separate processes. If you have a mortgage, your lender is likely listed as a loss payee on the policy, so they’ll be involved in how any insurance funds are handled. Talk to your insurance company before closing to confirm how your specific claim will be handled.
In most cases, the insurance proceeds are yours to keep even after you sell, unless you choose to assign the claim to the buyer as part of the sale. If you have a mortgage, expect your lender to be involved, since they’re typically named on the insurance check too. An insurance agent or attorney can confirm how your specific policy handles this.
Some sell right when they retire, while others wait years, and some sell only after a health change makes the decision for them. There’s no schedule to follow. Selling for cash simply means that whenever you decide, you don’t have to add a long listing process on top of an already big life change.
