Start with the home you have.
A roof that needs attention. An outdated kitchen. Projects you no longer want to manage. Tell us what you know about the condition so we can have a useful conversation.
There’s no need to spend money preparing for our first discussion. Before investing in repairs, compare the cost and effort with your different selling options.
Be clear about what stays.
Discuss belongings, debris, unfinished projects, and access to the property. Any agreed clean-out or items left behind should be written into the purchase agreement.
As-is describes the condition being purchased. It does not mean that all other contract terms or disclosure obligations disappear.
Choose between work and convenience.
Renovating or listing as-is on the open market are also options to discuss with an agent. A direct offer can save preparation work, while a wider buyer pool can produce a different price.
Look at the whole outcome: proceeds, time, effort, and certainty under the actual contract.
