Sell your house fast in Meadow Woods, Florida

If you are reading this you are probably a resident of Meadow Woods, Florida who needs to sell your house fast. If your house is in good shape you can place it on the general retail market through a real estate agent. However, the average time it takes for an attractive house to sell in Meadow Woods is about 80 days. For old and unattractive houses the time could be longer. In either case one good solution for fast cash is to sell to a fix and flip company.

Those of you who own houses that need to be fixed up probably have thought about doing the repairs and remodeling yourself. But for most people this is not an option because the cost and time that are required. Not only do you have to get the manpower and materials to get the job done, you have to do it professionally.

In this blog post I will outline 2 fix and flip scenarios. The first shows a single issue that a contractor might face and the second helps you understand the total costs involved in turning an ugly house into an attractive one that will sell.

Here we see the source of a home’s water damage problem. If this an isolated instance of leakage we we would be tempted to use epoxy putty to fix it. But since a leak is usually a sign of an outdated plumbing system we would need to replumb the whole house before we flip it. For the smallest of houses the cost would be about $4,000 if you are on good terms with a plumber. This number could easily double with a larger home.

The water damage is a lot more evident in this photo of the ground floor living room. After the leakage was stopped the whole room was humid and had a musty smell that lasted for days. Fortunately the carpet soaked a lot of the water up before it flowed into the basement.

In this situation the homeowner had a choice to fix all this himself or quickly sell the home to a company like ours. When we step into a situation like this we become the problem solver so the homeowner can move on. They actually feel rescued as they start a new life in another house with money in their pockets to satisfy the debt collectors.

Maybe it’s now easier to understand why it’s important to have fix and flip companies in a city’s ecosystem. We are very good at minimizing repair costs to make a quick house flip profitable. This allows the urban landscapes of Meadow Woods to look fresh and welcoming while providing attractive housing to growing families and retirees. Without us the state of Florida would be littered with slums.

Now let’s consider the nation’s infrastructure of highways and bridges. After so many years of usage it is currently in a dangerous state of disrepair. Every year we hear more stories of bridges collapsing under the weight of traffic because capitalism had no place in their maintenance.

Maybe you are living in a house whose condition has followed the same downward trajectory as our nation’s roadways. Perhaps you would like to upgrade into a new home but don’t have the finances to do repairs. Rather than selling the traditional way, you can give us a call and we can make you an offer to help you sell your house fast.
