What are the practical ways to sell an as-is house?
List with an agent
Ask an agent whether listing the house in its current condition fits your plans. Compare any work you choose to do, preparation and showings, the costs in the listing agreement, and the bills you may carry while it is for sale.
Sell by owner
You arrange the marketing, buyer questions, showings, price discussions, and sale coordination yourself, or choose professional help. Include your time and any support you choose when comparing this route.
USA Home Buyers has two purchase options for an as-is house. Compare their written numbers with a realistic listing plan or selling by owner.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
The useful comparison is what you may keep after the costs that apply to your house, along with the work and timing you are prepared to take on.
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Which costs and complications should you compare?
For a listing or sale by owner, compare chosen repairs or cleanout, preparation, marketing and showing costs, any commission in the agreement, and the bills you may carry while the house is for sale. For a direct offer, compare the written price and terms with your payoff and other amounts due. The sale price alone is not what you keep.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
