Mary inherited her parents house and the house was headed for auction quickly. She didn't think she was able to sell the house and had given up hope. She was so convinced that there was no chance she ignored my calls and messages for over a week before her boyfriend finally convinced her to talk to me and she is glad she did! Don't take my word for it just listen to her.
Becky was behind on her mortgage and facing foreclosure when we first met. She was ready to sell her house and move onto the next phase of her life but only had four days before her house went to auction. We were able to negotiate with her lender and buy us time to handle heirship issues that popped up. In the end we took over her payments, paid off what she owed the bank and put money in her pocket, so she could move forward with that this property hanging over her head.
Mary G. from Midlothian, Tx talks about her experience with Red Top Homes. Mary tried to sell her house through 3 different Realtors over the course of 2 years, but all 3 failed. There were probate problems, heirship questions and even pre-foreclosure issues Tried to with the lender. Using creative strategies and working with Mary's interest in mind we were able to work through all the issues and buy her house for the price she needed.
Sheila went through a divorce only to find out that she was $50,000 behind on her mortgage! She was lost, depressed, stressed and felt alone. She tried to work with the bank and she tried to sell the house with a realtor but couldn't solve the problem or sell her house. We met Sheila just a week before her home went to auction and were able to do EXACTLY what she wanted!
Herb's parents died years ago, but he had never been ready to sell the house. Once he was ready he let us know and we will have it closed in less than 2 weeks.
Dan P. inherited a few acres in Mansfield from his grandfather that quickly turned into a junkyard as squatters moved in and took over. After a few years of trying to sell he had given up all hope, stopped paying the taxes and was about to throw in the towel. That all changed when we spoke to him and put together a group to purchase the "junk yard" as-is and pay his back taxes.
We strive to make our selling experience as easy and straight forward as possible. Our sellers can be in Dallas-Fort Worth or anywhere in the world. We will make it work.
We will never bait and switch a seller. All the important conversations about price are had at the beginning of the process and agreed on before a contract is signed. What we agree to, is what happens when we buy homes with an easy cash offer.
We will male you a market price offer for your property. No low ball, dirt cheap offers here. When we buy homes every offer we make is guided by local market trends and comparisons. We are happy to share this information with all of our sellers.
While it is common, it is never a fun process. If there is a property involved in your divorce we can buy it and make it easier to divide your assets. Allow us to help make this unfortunate time a little bit easier.
We can purchase newly transferred property or even buy it before probate kicks in anywhere around Dallas-Fort Worth.
If the bank has not sold your house at auction, then you still own it. We can make a cash offer and help you save a foreclosure on your record and make some money in the process.
Usually we begin with a phone call to find out some preliminary information concerning the property, desirability of the home, mortgage information and seller timing and motivation.
Next, we meet in your home and review your paperwork. In preparation for this meeting, we usually have performed a competitive market analysis to determine the approximate value of the home. At this meeting we explain the required documentation, such as Warranty Deed, Sales and Purchase Agreement, Power of Attorney, Disclosure Statements, Notices to the Lender and Insurance Company and answer any questions you may have.
While we’re in your home, you can show us any repairs or cosmetic improvements that need attending. If we come to terms during our visit, we sign a Standard Purchase and Sales Agreement outlining the details of our transaction. We further agree on a schedule for signing the final closing documentation and for change of possession. We can be very flexible on our date of possession, but once we set the date, we want to be sure that the home will be available for cleaning/painting crews, as well as initiation of our advertising.
After this meeting, we run a title search to be sure that there are no encumbrances that would cloud the title when we next meet. This search takes about two days, but provides us both with the certainty of the ownership, status of the liens (mortgages and promissory notes), and gives us the exact legal description for creating a Warranty Deed.
At our next meeting, we sign all the paperwork. The Warranty Deed and several of the other documents require notarization. Several copies of each are signed, and you get one copy of each document for your records.
Our last meeting is when your moving vans are loading your possessions. At this brief meeting, we ask that you give us the old paperwork for the house, garage door openers, keys and a list of all the utility companies. We will contact them to switch payment of the services. Since we’re going to send in a cleaning crew, there is no need for you to spend much time making your home pretty as you move out. However, we recognize the pride that you have in your home and we always appreciate the Seller’s housekeeping efforts when they move out.
After you move out, we provide cleaning and maintenance efforts to assure that the home is in “move-in” condition. Typically we don’t show homes more than 3 or 4 times to prospective tenant/buyers. Using our techniques for advertising and pre-qualifying, tenant/buyers have few reasons not to sign an agreement to purchase the home.
You will probably not hear from us for sometime after we take possession of your home. We transfer the utilities and notify the insurance company and lenders. When our tenant/buyer exercises their option, we pay off your mortgage (using the Power of Attorney documents) and notify you that your mortgage has been satisfied.
