We Buy Houses Tampa

Selling a home in Tampa is tough. From the moment you first consider just the possibility of selling, the possible considerations and complications are endless. 

  • When should I sell? 
  • How do I sell? 
  • Do I list my house for sale by owner, or do I try to find a good real estate agent? 
  • Should I hold an open house? 
  • What if my house needs major repairs?

If you’ve had these or similar questions, know that you’re not alone. Whether you’re beginning the difficult process of parting with a childhood home or simply trying to navigate away from the stress of home ownership , many Tampa homeowners like you have faced similar challenges in the past—and come out on top.

Today, Florida’s housing market remains competitive across the state, and Tampa is no exception—in fact, the Tampa area may be among Florida’s most lucrative in 2020 for potential investors. 

So what? You may wonder. How does this change how I sell my home?

The reality is that even a market favorable to the seller poses many challenges, including some unique to each individual home. Because of wider market demands and relatively few buyers, it can be tough to sell a Tampa home on your terms—especially if you want to sell your Tampa home fast, or if you have a problem home.

That’s where we come in.

At FL Home Buyers, we buy houses in Tampa and we think you deserve a home-selling process that makes your life easier—not harder. We believe you and your needs come first so that you can get the absolute best value for your property.

You should be able to sell on your schedule, at your price, and on your terms. Here’s how we help you do that.

1) FREEDOM FROM COMMISSIONS. 

In a typical Tampa home-selling process, you’d work closely with a real estate agent who would guide you throughout the selling process and assist with finding potential buyers. But, when all is said and done, there’s one last hidden surprise after you close: a commission paid out to your agent. When you work with FL Home Buyers, we are your buyer, so there’s no agent needed and therefore no commissions in sight. 

2) NO CLOSING COSTS.

We want the power to sell your Tampa home to be—and stay—in your hands. As we see it, an informed customer is a happy customer, so we’ve made our process totally transparent. We’ve eliminated closing costs, so our customers enjoy an easy home-selling experience free of surprise fees, even if your Tampa home is in poor condition, in need of major renovations, or has code violations. 

3) QUICK SALES TIME.

When you first enter the market, there can be a waiting game—seemingly endless days spent wondering if your house will ever be sold. 

When you work with FL Home Buyers, you never have to worry about whether or not there’s a buyer for your home. We buy houses in Tampa so you can relax in the knowledge that your house will be sold fast. (Most see their homes sold in around seven days!)

WHY YOU’RE SELLING YOUR HOME IN TAMPA

At FL Home Buyers, homes are our business. We know there are as many reasons to sell as there are homes on the market—we treat every circumstance individually, so that we can help you get the best deal for your property. 

The fact is that life can get tough, and no Tampa house is perfect. Over our years of experience, we’ve bought all kinds of properties: from Tampa houses with major code violations to apartment buildings that are 80% empty. We take on homes of all shapes and conditions. Even if you think your home and situation is unique, we guarantee we’ve seen something just like it before. We buy houses in Tampa and we know what it takes to get your home sold fast. We provide an easy solution to your home problems that get you back on track with cash in your pocket.

Some of the issues that we have dealt with in the past:

-TAMPA HOMES IN SUBPAR OR POOR CONDITIONS. Maybe your home is in poor conditions with plumbing or roofing problems, or is otherwise in need of repair. Identifying your house’s condition is the first step; with FL Home Buyers, you don’t need to worry about seeing those repairs through—we’ll take care of it all.

-TAMPA HOMES PENDING FORECLOSURE. If your home is in pre-foreclosure and you’re looking to avoid going further, you need to work with a dedicated home buyer who puts your interests first.

-DIFFICULT TO SELL PROPERTY. e.g. if your property is stigmatized or otherwise difficult to sell.

-TAMPA HOMES THAT NEED TO SELL FAST. When time constraints make it essential for you to sell on a tight timeline, traditional real estate agents don’t always cut it. FL Home Buyers knows how to buy and sell your house fast.

-TAMPA HOMES WITH CURRENT LIENS. Liens can be troublesome when buying and selling a home—fortunately, at FL Home Buyers, we’re used to working with properties that have current liens against them.

-TAMPA HOMES WITH MAJOR CODE VIOLATIONS. Maybe your smoke alarms are misplaced, or perhaps your property is older and isn’t quite up to code. Code violations don’t signal doom for selling your house, but they do turn away a majority of average retail home buyers. FL Home Buyers is used to working with homes that have major code violations.

-PROBATE SITUATIONS. Probate—the legal process by which a will’s beneficiaries become the owners of property promised to them in the will—introduces an additional level of complication into the process of buying and selling a home. If your loved one passed away and you’ve gone through probate, it can be difficult to move on and sell the home successfully. We would be more than happy to offer our advice and help you deal with the aftermath of probate or any intestate real estate situations that arise. 

-DIFFICULT TENANT SITUATIONS. If you’re faced with difficult tenant situations or want to sell a property that has existing tenants, never fear: we’ve successfully helped people sell their tenant-occupied properties in the past. We buy houses in Tampa and we’ve bought several apartment buildings, some filled, some empty. 

Some homeowners come to us so that we can take the difficulty out of parting with a beloved property and others need help selling a home with major repairs. Over our many years of experience buying and selling Tampa homes, we’ve faced situations like yours before and know what it takes to sell your house fast in Tampa. 

FL Home Buyers offers a shortcut around the stress of selling a home in Tampa: we’ll guide you through the process and get you the value you deserve. It’s our pleasure to help Tampa homeowners sell their property, whether it’s a source of happy memories or built-up tension.

AS-IS CONTRACT

“Why can’t I sell the house myself?” you may be wondering. “It doesn’t seem that difficult to list a house.”

Many homeowners opt to list their houses as for sale by owner, and often do indeed receive offers very quickly—sometimes within days. Unfortunately, these offers often come with stipulations: long lists of required repairs on the owner’s dime. This is especially true for Tampa homes in poor condition, stigmatized properties, or with other mitigating factors. 

In other words, unless your home is pristine, chances are you’ll come face to face with a strings-attached offer. 

Those strings take time, and your time is valuable.

That’s where an “as is” contract comes in.

Created by Florida Realtors and the Florida Bar, standard “as is” purchase agreements indemnify homeowners from the cost of repair—meaning that the home is sold totally “as is”, no strings attached. With an “as is” contract, you’re totally protected from repair obligations, making it easy to get on with life itself.

In other words, your sale comes first. We’ll deal with the repairs.

WHAT WE OFFER

Selling your Tampa home is a tough, stressful process, and you deserve to partner with a company that’ll create the fastest, fairest experience specifically for you. FL Home Buyers puts the seller first with fast answers, transparent communication, and a contract designed with your needs in mind.

Here’s what sets us apart from other home buying companies and helps us bring satisfaction to home sellers all across Florida.

-EASY PROOF OF FUNDS. Many homebuyers, especially larger companies, just aren’t working in your best interests: they’re working for themselves first, and your needs come second. You can tell the difference between a quality company who’s serious about buying homes and shady organizations with bad business practices by asking for proof of funds. Buyers should always be able to offer proof of funds, and at FL Home Buyers, we’re pleased to be able to provide sellers with our proof of funds effortlessly. Partnering with us, you know your check is getting cut ASAP—no empty promises, no vague estimates, just real value delivered for your home. You are our first priority every step of the way.

-CHOOSE YOUR CLOSING DATE. Time is our most important asset, and our customers rely on us for scheduling flexibility that’s unmatched in the business. With FL Home Buyers, you’re free to choose your closing date as soon as you want—or, if you prefer to wait a few weeks, we’re happy to accomodate. We work to fit your schedule, not the other way around.

-NO CLOSING COSTS. In a typical Tampa house-selling process, there can be numerous (and sometimes unexpected) closing costs to consider. These can include assorted taxes, closing agent fees, title fees, repairs, outstanding liens, and more—all things that can add up for a serious financial burden. We buy houses in Tampa and we’ve done away with these extras and streamlined our process so that it’s easy on the seller from start to finish. When you work with FL Home Buyers, you can look forward to closing without any extra costs to consider or cuts in your sale.

-NO COMMISSION. Another final surprise for many homesellers, a traditional real estate agent will typically take a final commission after closing—sometimes as much as 6% of your home’s total sale price. But remember, with us as your homebuyers, you don’t need a traditional real estate agent at all, so the price you see on your purchase agreement is the price you get. 

While the process of selling your home in Tampa can be tough, it doesn’t have to be stressful. FL Home Buyers takes the fuss out of preparing your home for the market and puts the ability to sell your house fast for cash back in your hands. If you’re ready to take the next step towards selling your home, contact our team of professional Tampa home buyers at FL Home Buyers today! We’ll help you set up your free appointment and get you ready for home-selling success.
