Do You Have to Empty a House Before Selling?
Quick Answer
Not when you sell to us. Take what you want and leave the rest—furniture, appliances, junk, personal items. We handle the cleanout at no extra cost. It's especially helpful for inherited properties or when you're short on time.
What Traditional Sales Require
In a traditional MLS listing, you're expected to:
- Remove all personal belongings before closing
- Leave the house "broom clean"
- Haul off unwanted items (which can cost $500-$2,000+)
- Risk an escrow holdback if you leave items behind
This is stressful, time-consuming, and expensive—especially for inherited homes full of decades of belongings.
What We Do Differently
When you sell to FL Home Buyers:
- Take what you want: Keep the items that matter to you
- Leave the rest: Old furniture, broken appliances, boxes in the garage—we take it all
- No extra charge: Cleanout is included in our process
- We've seen it all: Packed garages, full attics, entire houses of belongings—no problem
Perfect for Inherited Properties
If you've inherited a house full of a loved one's belongings, the last thing you want is to sort through everything while grieving. We buy the house with everything inside. Keep the sentimental items and let us handle the rest.
