There are real differences between selling the traditional way through a realtor and selling to professional home buyers. Before you list, take a look at all your options — the open market isn't always the better deal.

When the Minneapolis market favors sellers, listing looks obvious — until you tally up the commissions, repairs, showings, and time on market.
When you work with a real estate agent, you need to worry about paying out commissions and fees, closing costs, and even more money in repairs or inspection items that come up.
When you work with Twin Cities Home Buyers, you don't have any commissions, fees, or closing costs to pay. There's nothing you need to pay out of pocket to sell your home to us. Ever.
If you list your house with a realtor, you have the disadvantages of:
Say the inspector flags your breaker box and wants it updated from 60amp to 120amp. That's a $2,500+ cost to you — with no added value to your property — just to satisfy this one buyer.
Even after a clean inspection, most buyers need a lender. If that lender backs out, the deal is off. This happens to 15% of all real estate deals.
We do our inspection at the initial offer meeting and we make all-cash offers with no contingencies. We can't pay retail prices for the house, but we are guaranteed to close on all of our deals.
Like most people, they didn't have time to sell on their own. When they first visited the house, they realized it was in such poor condition they wouldn't be able to sell it without paying for extensive repairs. They were tempted to leave the house and let the city claim it.
They didn't want to pay commissions, fees, or any of the repair and labor costs to bring the house up in value — so they searched for a professional home buyer in Minneapolis and contacted Twin Cities Home Buyers.
"After talking to Jason about the fears we had about selling to an investor, he put our mind at ease. He explained how he came to the all-cash offer and how the 7–10 day closing works."
The Larsons accepted the offer. According to Mrs. Larson, “the whole complete process was stress free and Jason was very patient with our schedule.”
