03 | OUR PROCESS

HOW IT WORKS

STEP 1: THE ACQUISTION PROCESS

After having received your inquiry, we’ll contact you immediately to discuss your property. Next, we’ll contact our builders notifying them you are inquiring about an offer on your home.

We then prepare a detailed property analysis of similar homes that have sold nearby. Using this analysis helps determine what the current market value of your home is.

STEP 2: PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (PSA)

We collect all of the Purchase and Sale Agreements (PSA) from our builder’s and schedule a time to review all offers with you. We’ll then suggest which builder has made the strongest offer based on price and terms.

STEP 3: REVIEW and SIGN THE PSA

We review the PSA and its terms with you either in person or videoconference call and discuss the agreement:

Price – what our builders are offering for your property
Earnest Money – amount of money paid to you as a non-refundable deposit after waiving feasibility
Closing Date - when the sale is final and all of your funds are distributed to you in cash

STEP 4: FEASIBILITY PERIOD

This is a review period to ensure the builder can develop what they’re proposing to build on your property. Typically, this is a two-week process to review all jurisdictional requirements.

Feasibility Approved:

Offer now moves forward into a mutually accepted contract (PSA)
Earnest Money released as non-refundable to you

Feasibility Rescinded:

During the feasibility review period, the analysis determined the property wasn’t buildable to the builder’s specifications.
The contract is null and void which allows us to explore other options of your choice

STEP 5: CLOSING

All of our builders offer flexible closing schedules within your preferred timeline. You are given the option to receive all of your funds and live in your home post-closing up to 6 months allowing you time to find and even close on your next home.

Our team of real estate professionals will work diligently in finding your new home at zero cost to you!

STEP 6: NEIGHBOR REFERRAL BONUS

For each neighbor you introduce to our builders, they’ll give you a cash bonus when they close on the neighbor’s property.

04 | FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

CAN I RECEIVE ALL OF MY FUNDS BEFORE MY MOVE OUT DATE?

Yes! You receive all of your funds in cash at the time of closing and can live in your home for free until your move out date.

IF I HAVE A TENANT, COULD YOU ARRANGE A PLAN TO PURCHASE GIVEN THE LEASE IS STILL ACTIVE?

Yes, your tenant can stay in the home while you collect rent until the closing date. After the closing date, if there is still time left on the lease, the tenant will have until that date to vacate the property.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SELL “ON OR OFF-MARKET?”

Selling on-market is the traditional type of real estate sale whereas the home is listed on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) through a real estate broker, updating/repairing, staging, etc. Normally, there are contingencies such as inspection, financing and appraisal that accompany an offer. Also, the option to live in your home post-closing is very rare.

Selling off-market is just the opposite: Not listed on the MLS, no broker tours, updating, preparing for sale, no real estate commission, etc. The sale is “as-is” without a financing contingency, appraisal, etc.

WHAT ARE THE BENEIFTS OR COST SAVINGS TO SELLING OFF-MARKET TO ONE OF OUR BUILDERS?

On average, our builders offer 12-20% over current market value.
No out-of-pocket costs of upgrading, making repairs, staging, etc. necessary to list your home;
You aren’t inconvenienced with broker tours, open houses, or having to leave your home while listed on the market.
Your funds are available in as little as 30 days, yet you still can live in your home free up to 6 months post-closing.
There are ZERO real estate commissions on your sale to a builder. Together, our team of real estate professionals will find your new home at no expense to you.

WHY WORK WITH US AS A BROKER?

We get your home in front our network of builders, which increases the probability of receiving multiple offers on your home, not just one!
We do not charge ANY real estate commissions.
Why have just one builder’s offer instead of multiple?
We eliminate the uncertainty of what a single builder may determine what your property’s value is.

WHAT IS FEASIBILITY PERIOD MEAN?

The feasibility review is the process of determining through various studies such as storm water, soil testing, easements, etc., if the property is developable to the builder’s specifications. Typically, it takes two weeks to gather our findings and communicate the results to you for next steps.

WHEN DOES THE FEASIBILITY TAKE PLACE?

The Feasibility Review takes place immediately after the PSA has been signed by both parties.

WHAT IS A PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT?

A Purchase and Sale (PSA) agreement is a legally binding contract that dictates the how the sale of a home will proceed. The agreement outlines the terms such as the sales price, any contingencies and specific terms leading up to the closing date.

WHAT IS EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT

Earnest payment is the deposit made demonstrating that the applicant is serious about purchasing your property. After feasibility review is satisfied, the earnest money is released as non-refundable deposit to you applicable towards the purchase.
