If you're considering selling a San Diego County home, you may be weighing your options.
Should I sell to an investor, fix up and sell, or go straight to the open market in "as-is" condition?
Here's an example from this week that you can relate to for a San Marcos house.
The home is well-maintained but needs some updates, and we explored their options before deciding on the best strategy.
Options:
Sell to a cash investor off-market – Fast and hassle-free, but typically lower net proceeds.
Remodel and sell – Potential for higher value, but costly and time-consuming.
Sell as-is with great marketing – Declutter, deep clean, showcase the home’s best features, and attract competing buyers.
They chose option #3—and here are the results.
Multiple offers in 5 days.
Accepted the best offer within a week
Closing in just 10 days
Netting significantly more than a cash investor's offer
#1. Why didn't they sell to a cash investor off-market? The net to the seller was considerably less.
#3. Why didn’t they fix and sell (remodel first)? The market is hot, and pricing strategically creates competition without the cost and delays of renovations.
