I’m Relocating And Need To Sell My House In San Antonio

selling my [market_city] house relocationRelocation is a complicated exercise in coordination. We get local San Antonio home sellers calling us or submitting their house info on this website every week saying “I’m relocating and need to sell my house in San Antonio“.  The great thing is that we’re able to help a good many of those sellers sell their house quickly (because we’re actively buying houses in San Antonio, TX right now!).

There’s an insane amount of details to keep together, plus the stress of whatever is making you move in the first place – often it’s a new job or a sick relative, but the true need to move always comes with a dramatic change.

So how do you make the most out of a difficult situation?

Don’t Agonize – Organize.

You don’t want to be in a situation where you end up paying to own and maintain a vacant house for 2 years. That gets expensive and it doesn’t have to be that way.

Although the market is relatively stable right now in San Antonio, things can change in the blink of an eye. We’ve heard some serious horror stories over the past couple of decades. Unless you’re filthy rich, you probably can’t afford to wait it out.

So how do you make the right choices when you’re relocating and need to sell your San Antonio, TX house fast?

Relocating And Need To Sell My House Fast In San Antonio… Your Options And Steps

First…

  1. Find out what your house is worth: To do this you can contact a reputable real estate agent or connect with us and we can give you a no cost no obligation valuation on your property.  Once you know what the house may be able to sell for in the current market… that sets the basis for how long you may or may not be able / willing to sell the house.
  2. Decide how fast you need to sell your house after you relocate: This is a biggie. I’ve seen professionals who moved out of state for a job who had their house on the market for over a year before selling it for a much much lower price than they hoped. Decide how fast you need to sell your house… and how long you’re willing to keep making 2 mortgage payments, insurance payments, etc.
  3. Find a solid real estate agent BEFORE you start packing boxes: Get the ball rolling early so you don’t waste any time. Every month that you wait or every month that it takes to sell the house… costs you money.  Or if you don’t want to use a real estate agent to sell… we are a reputable local house buyer and we’d love to make you a fast-fair all cash offer. Just fill out the form through this link to get started >>
  4. Calculate the value of selling your house fast vs. “waiting it out” for a dream price: We all want to sell our houses for as much as possible. But one thing many people forget to do is come up with the $ amount of how much it costs you to hold onto this house.  The costs involved include the mortgage (which if you’re still within the first 10 years of the mortgage, the majority of your payment interest and not hardly going to principal at all), insurance, taxes, maintenance, etc.Lets say you want to sell your house for $200,000… and your mortgage payment is $1,200/mo, taxes $200/mo, $100/mo for insurance, and $100/mo for maintenance (lawn maintenance, repairs while you’re gone, etc.).Those expenses add up to $1,600/mo in “non equity building” expenses.If it takes you 7 months to sell that house through a real estate agent for that $200,000… it cost you $11,200 in DIRECT “holding costs” + you had to pay $12,000 in real estate agent fees (assuming 3% for the buyers agent and 3% for the sellers agent).Totaling $23,200 in LOST money.  That doesn’t even account for the value of your time, your stress in thinking about that property sitting on the market, the opportunity cost of what you could have been doing with that extra money during those 7 months, etc. So the real cost to you was likely closer to $30,000.But, what if you were to sell your house next week and avoid all of that?Even if you sold for a discount below the retail price (lets say… $175,000)… you’re still ahead of the game by selling the house NOW at a discount to a home buyer like our company vs. 7 months later at full price (and paying holding costs and real estate agent fees).Make sense?
  5. Take action!: Whatever you decide… decide and take action.  If you want to go the real estate agent route, great! Find a reputable local San Antonio, TX agent.  If you’d rather not have to wait and not have to pay real estate agent commissions… then a viable option may be to sell your house to us 🙂

If you’ve got a lot of time on your side and a really great property, you might want to test the market by offering it out at a high price. There’s a small chance someone might just fall in love and be willing to overpay – people do crazy things for love.

Most properties are pretty average, in reality. They tend to be like the other houses around them, in the same way that people who live near each other tend to have a lot in common too. So unless your property is truly exceptional, as in magazine-quality extra-special, you won’t capture the most money in the market by pricing at the highest point.

You can also win by marketing your property for rent and sale at the same time, just to see what happens first. You have to maintain control of the process, which can confuse even seasoned real estate brokers.

In certain situations, we may partner with property owners to help secure lease option agreements where highly qualified purchasers rent the property for an agreed time before buying.

In other cases, we may help renegotiate a loan, help make monthly payments or conduct a short sale with a bank.

We love helping people solve complicated problems.

Creative solutions can bridge the gap to get you where you need to be.

These group of investors were really knowledgeable and helpful in getting our property sold with no hassle. Thank you Jill and Edgar for all your help in making this a quick and hassle free process. We appreciate you were always available to take our calls and that y’all were very professional.

We sold our home with this company and were overall pleased with the process and outcome. The process can be a bit of an emotional roller-coaster (this is primarily due to the nature of the market, not a fault of the company), but Edgar and his team did their best to make it as straight-forward and stress-free as possible. Be prepared to show your home to potential investors and marketers, and be aware that you will probably not receive market value for your home. But if you need to sell your home quickly and don't have the available cash to cover repairs and closing costs, this is the best route to go. We closed within 30 days of having reached out to House Buyer San Antonio, and the funds were transferred to us within 24 hours of closing.

Edgar was very professional with great communication skills. He made the transaction run very smooth as it was a stressful time moving our mother out of her home and into a nursing home.

Sal and the team were great. I was selling a house for my mom, and I was 1000 miles away. I made arrangements to meet several companies and Sal was the most prompt with returning calls and texts. Very important when you need to move quickly. He made an offer that worked and we got the house sold quickly. Selling a home is stressful and there was still stress, but it was mitigated by Sal's flexibility. God is good. Rick.
