Selling a vacant house when you are making double payments
You already moved. Paying for both houses is a lot. A direct sale can help you let go of the old house.
Can I sell a house I've already moved out of?
Yes, and a vacant house is easy to show us. We walk through, give you a written offer, and you pick the closing date. Furniture and leftovers can stay. You do not have to come back and clean.
What does an empty house cost me each month?
Mortgage, taxes, insurance, utilities, and lawn or snow care all keep running. Empty houses can also cost more to insure. In a Minnesota winter, a heat failure can freeze pipes. Those costs add up even when nobody lives there.
Is a vacant house a problem for insurance?
It can be. Many policies limit coverage when a house sits empty, so check yours. Ask your agent what counts as vacant and what happens if there is damage. This is an insurance question, not a legal matter, so call them directly.
When do the double payments end?
As soon as the sale closes. Often that is a few weeks, and you set the date. If you need longer to finish moving, we can build the closing around your move.
Do I need to fix up the house before selling?
No. We buy as-is. A direct sale means no repairs, no staging, no showings, and no commissions or fees. A title company handles the closing like any other sale.
Want to know what we would pay?
Tell us the address and the situation. It costs nothing and you are never obligated to take the number.
