sad_dog_lady

I am trying to be realistic, my 4 bed, 3 bath semi 1930's in the country, has a little orchard and 200ft garden looking onto woodland....... probably now only worth 130 k

I am looking to downsize to a little place as im getting infirm its priced at 75k, i've seen it , its perfect!,
I want it tommorrow, so what price should i offer an investor? but still have a little left over for moving costs and furniture.
many thanks

What, you mean sell it to a 'We buy your house for CASH' investor? Pls don't go there. You will do much better selling it to the first person to offer 90% of a fair valuation.

really, why are they not as good a their word then?

i would of thought it was a good idea to go for about 100 k

Oh my, your house sounds like heaven to me! My dogs would love a garden like yours. :cool:

Those companies that buy your property don't offer much, you'd be better off marketing.

I would get it valued by a couple of local agents to make sure your valuation is correct then offer it at a realistic price. I'm sure with the right price, it would be worth trying to sell yourself. You may only get 80% of it's value or less from one of those cash sale firms

Sad Dog Lady I have sent you a pm

thank you, i will try that agent, but i am sceptical that any property will shift in the current market, let alone one that needs management ( garden) its a nice home for a family, i had the roof converted for a play room, and it has a great big shed, so maybe a family may want it.
