Can you buy a house in Philadelphia after my listing expired?
Yes, and an expired listing tells us something useful rather than something bad. It usually means the house needed work the market would not overlook, or the price and the condition did not match. Neither of those is a problem for a cash sale.
Do I have to wait for my agent agreement to end?
Check the agreement, because some carry a period after expiry where the agent is still owed on certain sales. It is worth a read or a quick call to them. Once you are clear of it, the previous listing does not affect what we can do.
Will my agent find out I have been talking to you?
Not from us. We do not contact your agent, and having a conversation is not something you owe anybody an announcement about. When the agreement is genuinely finished and you decide to go ahead, that is the point at which it stops being private, and that is your call to make.
Why did it not sell?
Usually one of three things and rarely the one people assume. The price was set for a different market, the house needs work that buyers priced harshly, or a mortgage buyer could not get lending on it. The third is the one a cash sale actually solves.
My agent says I should just reduce the price and relist.
That is sometimes the right advice and it costs you more months to find out. If the house shows well and needs little work, relisting lower often does work. If it failed because of condition or lending, the same house at a lower price tends to fail the same way.
Will you just offer me less because you know it did not sell?
No. What we can pay comes from the house and the work it needs, not from how your last few months went. A failed listing tells us the market found it difficult, which we already assumed, and it is not leverage we would use.
I am embarrassed that it sat on the market for months.
Nobody here thinks less of you for it and it is more common than the signs coming down suggest. Houses sit for reasons that have nothing to do with the owner. It is information about the market and the condition, not a verdict on you.
Can I talk to you while it is still listed?
Yes, and plenty of people do. Having the conversation commits you to nothing and does not interfere with the listing. What matters is that you do not sign two things that conflict, which is why we ask about the agreement first.
The listing photos made it look better than it is. Does that matter?
Not to us, and it is worth saying out loud because people worry about it. We are not buying from the photographs. Somebody looks at the house as it actually is, and the gap between the two is often the reason the listing struggled.
Do I have to relist or auction it if I say no to you?
No. Saying no to us leaves you exactly where you were with every option still open. There is no pressure to pick something today, and we are not going to tell you the offer disappears if you think about it overnight.
