We buy houses in Los Angeles, CA: Why sell with us
Here is what makes selling to a cash buyer different from a traditional LA listing.
-
No FAIR Plan insurance issues. When buyers use traditional financing, their lender requires homeowners insurance. Cash home buyers don’t have that requirement, so FAIR Plan coverage doesn’t block the deal.
-
No fire history complications. Cash home buyers can factor fire exposure history into their offer without requiring sellers to complete repairs or remediation first.
-
No commissions. There are no agent commissions when you sell through SellMyHouse.co.
-
No financing contingency. Cash home buyers don’t depend on typical mortgage approval, so the deal doesn’t fall through over a lender’s insurance or appraisal decision.
-
Close on your schedule. We work with you to choose a closing date that fits your timeline.
What Los Angeles sellers need to know
Required disclosures
California requires sellers to provide a Transfer Disclosure Statement (TDS) and Natural Hazard Disclosure (NHD) for all residential sales. These same disclosure rules apply anywhere you’re selling a house in California.
Fire damage disclosures
Post-fire, sellers in affected areas should also be prepared to disclose fire damage, smoke damage, and any insurance claims. Cash home buyers are familiar with these requirements.
No lender appraisal
Los Angeles sellers in fire-affected areas may also face challenges with appraisals in the current market. Cash home buyers don’t require a lender appraisal, which removes one of the most common sticking points in post-fire neighborhood sales.
No attorney required
California is an escrow state, so a licensed escrow company handles the closing rather than an attorney.
