Sell your house for cash · Whittier

Sell my house fast in Whittier.

The median Whittier home was built in 1956, and most of them are lived in by the people who own them. That combination is what decides how a sale here goes.

What that means if you are selling one.

1956 is an older median than Compton's 1957 or Long Beach's 1959, and roughly one house in seven here went up before 1940. Whatever a buyer's inspector finds in a house that age, it is rarely a short list.

57.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, so the person selling is usually the person living in the house. That is the hard part of an old house. The repairs the buyer asks for happen around you, while you still sleep there, and the sale waits until they are done.

If you would rather hand over the keys and let that list be somebody else's problem, that is the cash offer. If you can live with the work, listing after the repairs may pay you more, and I will show you that number too, with the cost of the work written next to it.

Three numbers on your Whittier house, not one.

One · the cash offer
The cash offer on the house as it stands.
Two · renovate and list
What it would bring listed, after work I fund up front.
Three · your situation
What I would advance when the house is not the actual problem.

All three in writing, with the honest advice about which is best for you, even when the answer is none of them and it pays me nothing. How the three paths compare, and what happens between the call and the closing.

Why people in Whittier call me.

I bring you all three numbers in writing.

Questions I get from Whittier.

Do you buy in Whittier, or only closer to downtown?

Whittier is on my list, and so is everything between here and Downey.

My Whittier house was built before 1940. Will that put you off?

No. Age is not a reason I pass on a house. I look at what is actually there, the roof, the foundation, the wiring, and the offer is for the house as it stands.

I still live in the house. Do I have to move out before you buy it?

No. You pick the closing date and you stay until then. Nobody asks you to empty it for showings, because there are no showings.

Would listing it pay me more than your cash offer?

Sometimes. In a city with this much older housing it depends almost entirely on what the house needs. You get all three numbers and what the work costs, and if the listing is better for you I will say so.
