Why sell to a real estate investor?

These are tough times in the real estate world, its true. There is so much negative information about the housing market in the media that some would have us believe there's no hope out there. Similarly, you may have seen signs or even gotten mail from real estate investors saying "We Buy Houses!" or "Sell Your House FAST!" that make you wonder if these investors are the only way out of your selling predicament.

We know that selling your home or investment property at any time can be full of stressful and confusing choices, and it certainly isn't easy right now. So how do you really know when you should consider selling directly to a real estate investor? While there are many reasons, TIME is most often the determining factor. Consider these situations:

• 
  You are behind on the mortgage payments and entering pre-foreclosure, therefore do not have time to wait for a traditional sale.
• You have more than one property, perhaps moved before selling your first residence or perhaps own a rental property that is now vacant, and are paying two mortgage payments which you can not sustain indefinitely.
• You inherited a property and can not keep up with the maintenance and holding costs while you wait for a sale.
• You have a busy personal life and do not have time to make necessary repairs to your property in order for it to sell on the open market.
• You are relocating and need to sell before you move.
• Your personal life is such that you can not handle frequently cleaning and showing your home for months on end (perhaps due to medical issues or a new baby in the family).

Real estate investors are familiar with all of these circumstances and so many more. Most spend a great deal of time and money on their own education in order to be aware of these types of seller situations and how best to help each individual best sell their property. They are an asset to the real estate community by providing the invaluable service of being able to move quickly to help the seller out of what may be a tough situation.

Certainly selling to a real estate investor is not for every home owner, but for those who are not able to afford the time and sometimes money that comes with selling in the more traditional manner, selling to an investor is an excellent way to quickly overcome these obstacles.
