Getting a Cash Offer in as Little as 7 Days
Get rid of the headache of your property fast and avoid paying any more utility payments, tax payments, insurance payments, mortgage payments, you get the drill. If you list your house and wait 30+ days to close… you have to figure in all of the costs of holding that property during the time you have that property listed and are waiting for the property to close. If you’re saying “sell my house fast St. Louis” then you’re in the right place!
Sell Your House AS IS, Seriously
We don’t care how dirty your house is (we’ve seen worse!) or how many repairs are needed (a complete fixer? great! we love projects)... we’d like to make an offer on your house. This saves you time and money that you can keep in your pocket. Think about what this really means for you: no contractors, no repair estimates, no cleaning services, no dumpster rentals, and no weeks or months of renovation stress. The money you save on repairs and cleaning can go directly toward your next home, a vacation, or whatever matters most to you.
No Closing costs OR Realtor Fees
Because we are a full-service professional home buyer here in St. Louis, we make it easy for you. We pay for all of the closing costs. What we offer you is what you get (of course minus any mortgage payoff or other encumbrances on the property). Pretty refreshing eh? So when you add up the time you could save by working with Fast Lane Real Estate, the no-hassle experience, and the money you’ll save on commissions, fees, and holding costs while you wait to sell the traditional route… for many area homeowners selling to a professional house buyer is the best viable option.
