Reasons to Sell Your Home Off-Market!

Off-market real estate transactions can offer a homeowner more control and less stress when it comes to selling their home. Below, we will outline many benefits to an off-market deal, and why it may be a good choice for you.

Of course, if you don’t feel like reading, you can always call a member of our team to help walk you through the process and why it could be a good option for you. (There is no obligation to work with us after a phone call!)

Privacy and Discretion

Whether you need to sell your home for financial reasons (behind in taxes or in foreclosure), you’re tired of dealing with tough tenants, you’re recently divorced, or because you’ve inherited a home you can’t afford, an off-market deal can be very discreet and move quickly. You can avoid any nosy neighbors or family members, if that is a concern to you.

A Shorter Timeline

You may be in a position where time is of the essence. Where you want to sell a property as quickly as possible, to relieve the headache of homeownership. Off-market deals generally can move faster than traditional listings.

There is less red tape, fewer buyers to manage, and more serious inquiries. Oftentimes, buyers do not need to obtain traditional financing, which also can make a transaction move more efficiently. This can mean less stress, less time on the market, and money in your pocket quickly. Also, you won't have to deal with scheduling open houses!

Selling “As-Is”

This is a huge benefit for some off-market deals. With an “as-is” off-market deal (which all at Pioneer are), you are not responsible for making repairs to the home, staging the home, or even getting out the junk.

Traditional listings may come with a long to-do list to get your house ready for the market, but there is more flexibility with the condition of the home in an off-market deal. You should not have to paint, make repairs, stage the home, or remove junk with an “as-is” off market deal. This can save a lot of time & money when preparing to sell your property.

Buyers Like Off-Market Deals

Whether it’s an individual, an investor, or a group of investors, these types of home-buyers like off-market deals. They get to close quickly, do not have to go through the traditional buyer to agent process (that comes along with a lot of agent fees!), and enjoy a more efficient process overall. These types of buyers know what they want, and know a good deal when they see one off-the-market. This makes your house more enticing to people like them.

Overall, doing an off-market deal is a great option for selling your home, especially if you find yourself in a difficult homeowner situation that is causing some stress and frustration. Whether it’s privacy, more flexible terms, or a quicker timeline, do not shy away from an off-market real estate listing. Hopefully this explains a bit more about this niche of the real estate market.
