How We Calculate Your Cash Offer (No Secrets!)
Most "We Buy Houses" companies try to hide how they come up with their numbers. We prefer to be open. We value your house based on its potential.
The Formula:
[Your Offer] = [After Repair Value] - [Cost Of Repairs] - [Our Selling Costs] - [Our Minimum Profit]
Let’s Break That Down:
1
We Determine The After Repairs-Market Value Of Your House.
After Repair Value (ARV): What will your house be worth after we renovate it to HGTV standards? We look at what renovated neighbors' houses sold for.
2
We Calculate The Cost of Repairs
Cost of Repairs: What will it cost us to install a new roof, update the kitchen, paint, and landscape? We deduct this because we pay for it out of pocket.
3
We Determine Our Selling Costs
Selling Costs: Even though you don't pay commissions when selling to us, we have to pay them when we resell the renovated home. We also pay holding costs (taxes, insurance, utilities) while we fix it up. This is usually about 10% of the final value.
4
We Take Out Our Profits
Our Profit: This is a business, and we do need to make a profit to keep our crews employed. However, we keep this fair so we can do volume. We prioritize getting you an offer you will accept.
Simply put, it all boils down to this simple concept:
Your offer will be the market value of your house completely fixed up, minus all the costs associated with us bringing the house to its completely fixed-up condition, minus our profits (of course).
A Real-Life Example
Lets Look at a Real-Life Example - Imagine your neighbor's fully renovated house sold for $300,000 (ARV). Your house needs $40,000 in repairs. Our selling costs (10%) would be $30,000. Our minimum profit might be $30,000.
Your Cash Offer Calculation: $300,000 (ARV) - $40,000 (Repairs) - $30,000 (Selling Costs) - $30,000 (Profit) = $200,000 Cash Offer
Note: If this cash offer doesn't work for you, this is where our Creative Financing or Listing Options might be able to get you closer to that $300k number!
Common Questions About The Process
Q: How is this different from listing with a realtor?
A: When you list with a realtor, you pay 6% commission, closing costs, and often have to make repairs before listing. With our Cash Option, we pay the closing costs, charge no commissions, and buy "as-is."
Q: Will you be low-balling me?
A: No. As you can see from our formula above, our offer is mathematical. If our cash offer doesn't meet your needs, we can explore Novation Agreements or Subject-To financing to get you a higher price.
Q: Is there any obligation if I request an offer?
A: None at all. You can say "no" to our offer, and we will still part as friends. We are here to help you find the right path forward.
