How to Sell

Selling a House with Fire Damage? How to do it and not get burned

Our main goal is to help you and understand what choice you want to make as a homeowner. Since every homes scenario is different we will always respect your decision but will make sure to help you understand why most of our clients put their fire-damaged homes up for sale. 

  1. Selling an “As-Is” Home: Selling “as-is” is the easier option in most cases. You don’t have to deal with hiring contractors, managing the process, and, if it’s your primary residence, living through the process. 
  2. Market Fluctuations: The Real Estate market constantly fluctuates as it is, adding a fire-damaged home to that mix creates more of an ordeal for the seller. That’s where we come in! We will make you a cash offer and you won’t have to worry about following market trends. 
  3. Insurance Companies: Having to deal with insurance companies can be exhausting in and of itself. Since insurance companies are willing to payout settlements based on construction costs, the contents of the fire damaged home and for general inconvenience, our clients can often combine their insurance settlements with our cash offers to finance a new home. 
  4. Emotional Challenges: Being a victim of a fire is traumatizing and it is not uncommon to have certain feelings or be uncomfortable returning to a fire damaged home. We have even heard from several clients that they can still smell the smoke or feel the heat of a fire after returning to their restored home, though whether this is psychosomatic or a heightened sense of smell remains unclear. 
  5. A New Chapter: After dealing with the tribulation that comes from a house fire, some people simply want to start a new chapter of their lives in a new home. Dealing with city inspectors, contractors, insurance claim adjusters, real estate agents and other parties can sometimes have adverse effects on the people affected. Most people would rather get the cash for their burned down home quickly and move on.
