Tips for selling a home in Philadelphia and surrounding areas in a slow real estate market. Selling a home can be a stressful and time-consuming process in the best of markets. But when the market is slow, it can be an absolute nightmare. Especially if you’re trying to sell a house that needs a lot of work, or you need to sell your home fast.

Unfortunately, we are currently seeing signs that the real estate market is slowing down, both nationally and right here in the greater Philadelphia area. Many local agents are reporting that buyers are becoming more hesitant and willing to wait for the right home at the right price, according to a recent report in the Philadelphia Inquirer. The price of vacant land in Philadelphia and surrounding areas peaked in 2017, and is now at its lowest levels in three years, a trend that often precedes a slow housing market.

For newer homes, this means their value may rise more slowly or start to stagnate. For older homes, it means the value could start dropping and it may become more difficult to sell.

What to Do if Your Home Won’t Sell

If you’re having trouble selling your home, you have a few options. The first is to make some renovations and upgrades. Of course, this takes time, costs money and is risky. If you don’t do it right, you may not make your money back.

Your second option is to wait to sell. Of course, this can be costly too if you still have a mortgage. If you aren’t living in the home or are looking to move, you might be able to rent out the property – but this isn’t always easy in a buyer’s market either. Plus, you have to deal with the hassle of being a landlord.

But what if you can’t afford to renovate, or don’t want to take on that burden, and need to sell fast? If this sounds like you, there is a third option that may be right for you – and that’s to sell your house to a real estate investor who pays cash.

Selling Your Home Fast – and Walking Away with Cash

As one of the most trusted local real estate investors in southeastern Pennsylvania, Home Cash Guys has worked with hundreds of homeowners in all kinds of situations – many of whom find their homes sitting on the market for months without a reasonable offer.

We also pay all the closing costs, and we’re not a realtor, so we don’t take commission.

And, we can close in as little as 15 days, or as soon as the title clears, and put cash in your pocket!
