Which options can you compare for an as-is house?
List with an agent
Ask whether listing the house in its current condition fits your plan. Compare any preparation or repairs you choose, showing access, costs in your listing agreement, and the bills you may carry while it is for sale.
Sell by owner
You arrange the marketing, buyer questions, access, price discussions, and sale coordination, or choose professional help for the parts you do not want to manage. Include your time and any support you choose in the comparison.
A direct as-is sale is another option. 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.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare the Cash Offer and EZ Sale with a realistic listing or sale-by-owner plan. Look at the work, written terms, timing, and costs for the house—not only the asking price.
