Sell Your Property Fast in Florida

Selling your house for cash is a great idea when you need money quickly. Especially if you’re in a situation where making repairs, cleaning or staging the house for reselling isn’t an option. When you sell your house for cash with Your Florida Home Buyer®, we’ll give you our best offer so you can avoid the headache of working with an agent.

Your Florida Home Buyer® is not an agent, so we don’t list houses on the MLS. We are professional home buyers who purchase houses throughout Florida that meet our criteria. After acquiring a property, we may repair and resell it to another homeowner, or keep it as a rental.

We have closed some deals in as little as seven days, although, as with all the “Cash For Houses” companies in Florida, our closing process typically takes about 15 to 30 days. We work with your individual needs and on your schedule to give you the best service possible.

We can offer you a fair cash offer for your house, with no obligation to accept. This is calculated based on the After Repair Value (ARV) of the property.

Because we buy your house as is, we typically need to make repairs as well as handle all the selling and holding costs like commissions, closing costs, taxes, insurance and HOA fees ourselves before we can sell or rent the property. These typically come to 10% of the resale price and are used to calculate the ARV.

Through the years, and after losing over $250,000 on properties that we shouldn’t have purchased (we’ve made some dumb mistakes), we learned that our minimum required profit needs to be about 10% of the ARV or $10,000 minimum. That means that if we buy a property, fix it up and then try to resell it for $300,000, we need to make at least $30,000 on the transaction.

Here’s an example:

Say your home is worth $300K after it’s repaired and remodeled.
It needs $40K in repairs.
We calculate your offer using this formula: ($300K x 80% = $240K) minus $40K
We make you a cash offer of $200K cash.

Our unique approach means that there are no fees or commissions when you sell your house to Your Florida Home Buyer®. We will present you with an offer, and if you accept it, we will buy your house, often covering closing costs as well.

If you contact us during business hours, Monday to Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., one of our friendly Buying Managers, and you can see who they are here, will either pick up the call or call you right back. The call only takes a few minutes. They’ll ask you for some basic info about your property, listen to your needs, answer any questions you may have and offer guidance and recommendations to assist you in your home-selling journey, even if that means we’re not a fit for you.

The short answer is no. We won’t give the exact offer over the phone right away, but we can give you a range of where our offer will most likely be. Companies who give exact offers over the phone tend to give a bogus inflated offer to try and lock you into a contract and then use an “inspection report” to ask you for a huge price reduction.

Instead, we take the time to make sure that selling us your home really makes sense for you, and we consider the best offer suited for your individual needs. We’ll send you an estimated offer about 15 minutes after the discovery call.

Real estate agents in list properties with the hope of finding a buyer, often taking 6-12 months and charging a commission of 3-6% of the sale price. They provide a valuable service for those who can afford to wait and pay commission fees. Your Florida Home Buyer® approach, however, is distinct: We are home buyers, not agents.

We actually purchase houses, often making a decision within a couple of days (or even the same day). We invest our own money to buy, repair, and market the houses, assuming the risk and responsibility for the property.

If you want to accept the offer, our experienced buying managers will prepare a simple written agreement for you to sign and go over any questions you might have. This can be done over the phone, and the agreement can be signed electronically. If you prefer, we can also send someone in person to meet you. We do not pressure you to sign at any time. If you want to have an attorney review the agreement before signing, that is perfectly fine, and we actually recommend that you do so.

The whole process usually takes about 15 to 30 days, depending on the urgency. Once you sign the purchase and sale agreement, a representative will reach out within 24 to 48 business hours to schedule an inspection of the property to ensure our repair estimates are accurate.

We’ll also send the contract to the title company for them to order title and lien searches. It typically takes 1 to 2 weeks to conduct inspections and review the title.

Once everything looks good, we can close in 1 to 7 days. You can go to the title company or a notary will come to you, and then after the closing documents are signed, cash is wired to your bank account or you get a certified cashier’s check.
