When you own a house you don’t want, the last thing you want to do is spend more money attempting to sell it. Below, we will outline the costs you can expect with a traditional listing and what you can do to avoid them.
Costs Of An Average Listing
Many homeowners aren’t aware of all of the costs they will incur when listing their house with a Columbus real estate agent. You don’t just call an agent, take a few pictures, and wait for the offers to roll in. A successful listing of your house in Columbus will likely take a good amount of time and money.
Repair Costs
No matter how great of condition your house is in, there are bound to be some repairs needed to get the house ready for the MLS. Whether you are patching holes, touching up paint, or fixing a leaky faucet, all of these small fixes can add up fast. And if your house needs more than just a few small repairs, the amount you spend fixing it up may not be worth it.
Ways To Avoid Selling Costs
Sell Your House Directly
The easiest way to sell your house without any cost in Columbus, is by selling it directly to EASTON BUYS HOUSES. We will offer you a fair price, free of the costs, hassles, and wasted time of a traditional listing. You won’t have to spend a dime on any of the things listed above.
List Your House “As-Is”
Instead of spending the money to fix up your property for the MLS, you can choose to list it as-is. Keep in mind that it may take longer to find a buyer this way as most buyers on the MLS are looking for turnkey houses that they can move into right away. If your house needs some work, you may have better luck selling it directly.
