Selling Your Home with FairOffer
Get answers to the most common questions about our cash offer marketplace
FairOffer connects homeowners who want to sell quickly with verified cash buyers across the country. You submit your property details through our simple form, and our matching engine identifies investors who are actively buying in your area. You receive competitive cash offers — typically within 24 hours — and choose the one that works best for you.
Yes, 100% free. There are no fees, no commissions, and no obligations. You submit your property, receive offers, and decide whether to accept. If you don't like any of the offers, you walk away with no cost whatsoever.
Most sellers receive their first cash offer within 24 hours of submitting their property. Our First Look investors — verified buyers who subscribe for early access — are notified immediately when a matching property is submitted. After 24 hours, all matching investors in our network can view your property and submit offers.
We accept single-family homes, townhouses, condos, duplexes, multi-family properties, mobile homes, and vacant land. Properties in any condition are welcome — whether your home needs major repairs, has fire damage, foundation issues, code violations, or is in perfect move-in shape.
No. Our investors buy properties as-is. You don't need to clean, repair, renovate, or even empty the house. The offer you receive accounts for the property's current condition, so there are no surprises or last-minute renegotiations.
When you list with an agent, you typically wait months for a buyer, pay 5-6% in commissions, make repairs, stage the home, and deal with showings and inspections. With FairOffer, you get cash offers from verified investors within 24 hours, skip all repairs and showings, pay zero commissions, and close on your timeline — as fast as 7 days.
Every investor on FairOffer goes through a verification process. They must provide proof of funds showing they have the cash to close. Each investor also has a trust score based on their close rate, speed, deal history, and seller reviews. You can see this trust score alongside every offer so you know exactly who you're dealing with.
First Look is our premium tier for investors. First Look subscribers get 24-hour exclusive early access to new properties before they're shown to the rest of the network. For sellers, this means your property is seen first by the most active, committed buyers — which often results in faster and more competitive offers.
FairOffer shows you every offer side by side so you can compare what matters most: the cash amount, how fast the buyer can close, whether there are contingencies, who pays closing costs, and the investor's trust score. You pick the offer that fits your situation — whether that's the highest price, the fastest close, or the fewest strings attached.
Yes. Many of our sellers are dealing with difficult situations — foreclosure, divorce, inherited properties, probate, tax liens, code violations, or job relocation. Cash buyers on FairOffer specialize in these situations and can often close fast enough to help you avoid foreclosure or meet court deadlines.
Once you accept an offer, the investor handles the paperwork and coordinates closing through a title company. You choose the closing date that works for you. In many cases, the investor pays all closing costs. The process is straightforward — no banks, no loan approvals, no delays.
FairOffer has verified investors buying properties in all 50 states. When you submit your property, our matching engine finds investors who are specifically looking to buy in your city and zip code. If there are active buyers in your area, you'll receive offers.
