FAQ
Have some questions about selling your house?
We know that selling a house for cash to a company like ours is a big decision. The questions below are common things we get asked about the process and Fantastic Homes.
Selling your home before foreclosure can help you:
- Avoid damaging your credit score.
- Prevent a public foreclosure auction.
- Potentially retain some equity from the sale.
- Eliminate the stress and uncertainty of the foreclosure process.
- Avoid deficiency judgments, where the lender may seek the remaining balance after the foreclosure sale.
Yes, you can sell your home even if it’s in foreclosure. Selling the property before the foreclosure is finalized can help you avoid the negative impact on your credit score and potentially recover some of the equity you’ve built up in the home.
We specialize in purchasing probate properties quickly and efficiently. We understand the complexities involved in probate cases and can guide you through the process. By offering a cash purchase, we help you avoid the usual delays and complications of selling a property, providing a stress-free solution during a difficult time.
Probate is the legal process of administering a deceased person’s estate, including distributing assets to heirs and paying off any debts. If you’ve inherited a property through probate, you may need to sell it to divide the proceeds among heirs, pay estate taxes, or simply because you don’t want to keep the property.
Our unique approach means that there are no fees or commissions when you sell your house to Fantastic Homes. We will present you with an offer, and if you accept it, we will buy your house, often covering closing costs as well.
We pride ourselves on being transparent about our process. We consider factors such as the property’s location, required repairs, current condition, and the sale prices of similar houses in the area. By taking various factors into account, we arrive at a fair price that benefits both parties.
Yes, we buy houses in Chicago and throughout Illinois in any condition, including those that require extensive repairs. This allows you to sell your house as-is without any need for improvements or updates.
While many of the properties we purchase are priced below market value, we aim provide a fair offer we both will benefit from. We find that many sellers value the advantages of our cash offers, quick closings, and hassle-free transactions over the traditional way to sell your home. If you are interested in a fast and convenient sale, let’s work together to reach a fair, mutually beneficial agreement. Remember, our no-obligation pricing commitment means you are free to decline our offer if it doesn’t meet your expectations.
Real estate agents in list properties with the hope of finding a buyer, often taking 6-12 months and charging a commission of 3-6% of the sale price. They provide a valuable service for those who can afford to wait and pay commission fees. Fantastic Homes’s approach, however, is distinct: We are home buyers, not agents. We actually purchase houses, often making a decision within a couple of days (or even the same day). We invest our own money to buy, repair, and market the houses, assuming the risk and responsibility for the property.
You have absolutely no obligation once you provide us with some details about your property. We will review the information, possibly set up a call with you to learn more, and then present you with a fair all-cash offer. The decision to sell your house in Illinois to us is entirely up to you, and we will not pressure or harass you in any way. Ultimately, we want you to make the decision that is best for your situation.
