Hello, everybody is Hieu Bui with HBI Home Solutions. One question that I got asked a lot since I started in this real estate business is “how do I sell my house fast in Augusta, Georgia?” So today I want to spend some time and cover this topic on a really high level process for how we work at HBI Home Solution and how we can help you sell your house fast in Augusta, Georgia.
Step number one is, you should see a form on our website for you to fill out. And this form is going to ask you very basic information, things like your name, your phone number, email address, and the property address that you are looking to sell. Once you submit those information, it’ll go to a second page and it’ll ask you for some additional secondary information. Things like property condition, What kind of repair does it need, your timeline to sell, and what is your ultimate goal with this property?
Now I know the last question is kind of open ended and we leave it open ended for many reason. We realize that not everybody’s situation is going to be the same. So we want to know as much as possible about you to know the best way to assist you with this house selling process, because ultimately not everybody is going to have the same goal, and we’re not trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. And obviously, we cannot do that if we don’t know your situation very well. So we always try to keep the conversation pretty open ended and provide you with multiple different solution on how to sell your house, different term, and different condition, different price. So this way you can determine exactly which way is the best way for you to sell your house in Augusta.
So that’s step one, fill out basic information on the website. Now, step two, once we receive your information, we will review the information and give you a call pretty shortly, either myself or one of my assistants will do that. And the purpose of the call is just to have a conversation, get to know you better in person, and also for you to know us a little better. Answer any question, any concern that you have about working with us, and also this is the chance to clarify any information that you submitted on the website that we’re not so sure about. And also during this step two here, we will trying to schedule an appointment with you in person to see the property, which leads us to step three.
Step three is a physical appointment in person with you at the property to see the inside of the property and finalize the agreement. You buy your house in Augusta, Georgia. Now, if you are not at the point where you feel comfortable with us going inside a property, for whatever reason, you don’t have to worry about that. Obviously we would prefer to go in, but if you don’t feel comfortable letting somebody inside your home, that’s okay too. I have ran into a situation where the property owner just rented out to a family member and they don’t feel comfortable with stranger going inside a house at this stage. Sometime we have landlords who do not want to inform the tenants that they want to sell, and they just don’t want to rock the boat with a tenant, if you know what I mean.
In those case, we still have a way to work around that. We’ll try to schedule a virtual appointment with you online, and we will go over the agreement together. And if everything look good, we can decide to move forward with the agreement online as well. We have tool for you to e-sign everything remotely. And after that , if you feel comfortable, then we can go inside a property after we have an agreement together finalized.
And also the reason why we want to see the property in person is we will buy the property exactly the way it sit. It’s called buying the property “as is”. So we’re not going to ask you to do any repairs, any maintenance, any upgrades. Heck you don’t even have to clean up anything. You just take the stuff you need and leave the rest of us. We’ll buy it exactly the way it sit. So that’s the reason why we want to see the properties, so we’ll know exactly how much upgrade, how much repair that we have to do so that you don’t have to basically.
Step number four is we put together an agreement to buy your house and we send it over to the closing attorney. Then the closing attorney is going to handle the escrow process from start to finish. So this way, you know exactly how much money you are going to walk away with, net to you in the end. And also, you know exactly the closing date. There’s no guessing game at this point anymore. Typically, it takes about 30 days for you to sell your house fast to us, but we have resources to close on the house as soon as seven days. For example, I talked to a couple of people that they’re in foreclosure right now, and they would need to sell their house, even like three days, four days. So in order for us to accommodate that, obviously you guys have to tell us that that’s your situation. And we’ll have to pull a few string, but we will be able to close the house as soon as seven days if you tell us in a advance. That’s going to be no problem.
Once we send the agreement together to the attorney, then they handle it from there. And that’s not much for you to involve at all. We will handle everything on the back end. One thing we might need to do, is we might need to have access to the property to show the contractors who will perform work on the property to give us some estimate on the repairs. And also we also show your house to inspectors and funding partners. Obviously, we’ll coordinate all this in advance and give you plenty of time to prepare.
So all and all, pretty simple process. And let me just summarize real quick, step one, fill in a form about your information. Step two, we will give you a call to introduce ourselves. Step three, we schedule an appointment to see your house in person, and step four, we put together an agreement to buy your house and send it to our closing attorney, and the escrow process begin and you know exactly when you’ll receive your check, and your closing date. So if there’s any question don’t hesitate to give me a call, my phone number should be somewhere on the website, or you can submit a form, and we’ll just get in touch with you as soon as possible.
