Want to sell your home for cash? Want to sell your home immediately (this winter)? Good news: In this article, we tell you how to sell your home forcash in Montreal in winter.
Selling in winter isn’t easy. A real estate agent may be able to find you a buyer who wants to buy immediately and is able to receive financing without too much delay. But is this the best option for a quick cash sale this winter? What to do?
Frankly, you’ll probably want to drop the idea of working with a real estate agent in favor of a more effective strategy: finding a cash home buyer who can move quickly, even in the dead of winter.
The difference between sales with a real estate agent and a cash buyer
A real estate agent will advertise your home for sale and try to find a buyer who can help you. In most cases, the buyer thus found needs to be financed by a banking institution.
Between the agent looking for a buyer and the buyer looking for bank financing, you’ll have no choice but to wait for quite a while, since the sales process can take several months. Depending on when you advertise your property for sale, you may have to wait until spring.
How to find a buyer
of cash homes
Another method of finding a cash home buyer is to advertise your home “For Sale By Owner” (FSBO). However, if you choose to use this method, you’ll have to specify that you’ll only accept cash offers, and this could significantly limit the number of potential buyers interested in your property.
Another effective way to find a cash home buyer is to do a little research on the web and find a website like “vendre ma maison vite” or “acheteur de maisons cash”, then contact the person who owns it. However, by choosing to use this method, you won’t be able to know in advance how much you’ll be offered for your property.
Fortunately, we’re here to help. We’re cash homebuyers, and we have the funds on hand to buy a property quickly. And yes, we even pay cash to buy Montreal homes in winter!
How it works when you work with a cash home buyer
Once you’ve contacted a cash home buyer, they’ll most likely want to visit your home, then make you a cash offer. Some companies (like ours) can make you a no-obligation offer. This gives you complete freedom to decide whether or not you want to sell at that price. You don’t have to, but it’s always good to know what’s on offer.
If, in the end, you choose to accept an offer, then all you have to do is tell your cash home buyer when you want to close the sale and, if you’re dealing with a buyer from a serious company, he’ll make sure to accommodate your needs.
Don’t forget to ask your buyer if you’ll have to pay commissions or other fees.(We won’t charge you anything, but it’s best to ask other potential buyers).
