Sacramento Area REALTOR®

What's it worth, and what should you do about it?

Two different questions. Most people want both answered before they talk to anyone. I'm a licensed agent in Orangevale. I'll answer both and I won't pitch you.

Where your number comes from

I pull it myself. Actual sold comps on your street, adjusted for what your house actually is and what shape it's in. Not an automated estimate built off square footage and a guess.

Usually back to you the same day. If it's going to take longer I'll tell you why.

Four options (including doing nothing)

Most people only ever hear about one, usually from whoever knocked first.

List it as-is

No repairs, but the open market bids instead of one buyer. Usually nets more than a direct sale. Takes longer and you'll have showings.

Fix a few things first, then list

Sometimes twelve thousand of work comes back as forty. Sometimes it comes back as eleven and four months of your life. Depends entirely on the house. I'll walk it and tell you which one it is.

Sell as-is to a cash buyer

Fastest close, lowest net. You skip repairs, cleanout, showings, and most contingencies. I'll bring you real offers and tell you what each one nets after costs.

Keep it

Sometimes the math says rent it, wait, or do nothing for six months. If that's your answer I'll say so, and I don't get paid. That happens more than you'd think.

Side by side

Comparison of four selling options
List As-Is Fix + List Cash Keep It
Timeline Moderate Longest Fastest N/A
Repairs needed None I coordinate the work None Only what you choose
Showings Some Yes None None
Fees / commission Standard commission Standard commission Built into the price None
Certainty Moderate Market-dependent Highest You control it
Best for Convenience and exposure Maximum price Speed and simplicity When selling now costs you money
Opendoor offered $374,000
Sold with Dan $420,000

That's $46,000 more.

"I contacted Opendoor for an offer number for one of my rental properties. They offered me $374K. I contacted Dan... I listed my property with Dan and he closed the deal early at $420k."

Past results are not a guarantee of future performance. Every property and market is different.

Disclosure

About cash offers: some of the cash offers I bring you come from a buyer group I have a financial interest in. If that's the case on your property, I'll tell you in writing before you sign anything, and I'll show you what the other three options net so you can compare.

Common questions

Same day in most cases. It comes from me, not software.
No. Plenty of people get the number and do nothing. That's fine.
You sell in current condition. No repairs, no credits negotiated off an inspection list. Buyers price that in, so as-is usually nets less than fixing first. Usually, not always.
No. Nothing to sign, no fee, no obligation.

What sellers say

★★★★★

"We had a short timeline and a ridiculous amount of work to do to get ready. Dan found and managed contractors and local vendors, getting us great pricing and getting the work done incredibly fast, all the while coaching us through prepping the house for sale."

Amy B., Fair Oaks

★★★★★

"Not only did he get our offer accepted with a contingency to sell our home, but he also successfully sold our home within the contingency timeframe."

Lauren H.

★★★★★

"Dan went far above and beyond with getting the house ready for listing. From scheduling final cleaning, to changing light bulbs and even mowing the yard."

Lauren T.

★★★★★

"We would not have come anywhere close to the sales price we achieved had it not been for Dan and Amy working so hard, being so organized, and most of all being so supportive."
