Frequently Asked Questions

Here’s a quick collection of some of the questions our clients have asked us over the years, along with our answers. Still have questions? Don’t hesitate to contact us anytime! We would love to chat about our straightforward and stress-free process for selling a house all across IA (and other areas, too!).

Q:  Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A:  Many of the houses we purchase are below market value. We do this so we can remodel and upgrade the home to sell it at a later date. However, in our experience, sellers looking for a quick and easy cash sale aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property. Instead, they appreciate that we can offer them cash for their homes and close on a timeline that works for them. Plus, because we buy houses as-it-sits, no effort or expense is required on your part to fix up the property!

If that’s what you’re looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold with our SoldFast program, let’s see if we can come to a win-win cash offer. Our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s beneficial to understand what we’re offering!

Q:  How do you determine the price to offer for my house?
A:  Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and the value of comparable houses sold in the area recently.

Q:  Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A:  At Sold Fast, we’re not like traditional investors or agents. We focus on helping you sell your house with the method that will work best for reaching your goals. If you’re looking for speed and convenience, we can buy your house for cash. If you’re looking for top dollar, our industry-leading marketing strategy and Fix2List program can help you sell your Des Moines house faster than with a traditional real estate agent.

Q:  How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Great question! At Sold Fast, we are able to serve you with several options to sell that unwanted house in Des Moines. You pick the one that best meets your needs. We offer choices so you can choose what works for you. We won’t box you into a single option. If you’re after speed and convenience, don’t want to deal with repairs, and you’re willing to give up a bit of equity for that convenience, our SoldFast Program may be right for you. If you’re seeking top dollar and can wait for the right retail buyer to come along, great! We can list your home on the market to put the most money in your pocket fast. Even if your house needs repairs, our Fix2List Program supports remodeling costs. Call us to discuss the details 855-276-5332

Q:  Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: Since we are both real estate investors able to pay cash and licensed and reputable real estate agents, we have multiple ways we can sell your property on a timeline that works for you. If you choose to have us list your house on the MLS, our fees are similar to other real estate agents. However, our SoldFast and As-It-Sits Programs allow us to make you a fair, all-cash offer with no commissions or closing costs.

Q:  Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation! You tell us a bit about your property and we’ll take a look at things and set up a call with you to find out a bit more. If your house meets our buying criteria (most do!), we will make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us and provide you with your other options. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us. We won’t hassle you or harass you. We want you to decide what’s right for you.
