What To Do If You Decide To Sell With ClearSale

Before you sign anything, make sure the agreement gives you clarity on price, timing, and what happens if the buyer decides to back out or delay the closing.

#1: Ask Them To Remove Their Inspection Period So You Have More Certainty They Will Close

We commit in writing to no open-ended cancellation period. Asking this question helps you understand whether the buyer can walk away later without real consequences.

#2: Ask Them To Provide At Least 1% Non-Refundable Earnest Money

Non-refundable means they will pay you the earnest money deposit if they decide not to buy your home. As a simple example, a $400,000 purchase price would mean a $4,000 earnest money deposit. This is a strong best-practice question to ask.

#3: Clarify Whether The Purchase Price Can Change And Under What Conditions

Get this in writing. It helps reduce the risk of last-minute price changes before closing and gives you a clearer expectation of what you will actually receive.

#4: Ask That Any Change To The Closing Date Requires Your Written Approval

This helps ensure they follow through on the agreed timeline and cannot delay closing without your consent.

What Questions Should I Ask My Home Buyer?

Before you sign anything, ask questions that reveal whether the buyer can actually deliver on the price and timeline they’re promising. A trustworthy homebuyer should be able to answer these clearly and put the important parts in writing.

1 Will everything you’re promising me be clearly written into the contract?

2 In the last 3 months, can you refer me to 5 sellers who received exactly what was agreed to in the contract with no last-minute surprises?

3 How often do your contracts result in price reductions after inspections?

4 What contingencies are in your contract, and which ones allow you to cancel or renegotiate?

5 How do you determine your offer price, and is it finalized before inspections?

6 Are there any fees, commissions, or deductions I’ll see at closing?

7 What happens if you fail to close on time?

8 Under what circumstances can the price change after I sign?

9 Is the price you’re offering fully guaranteed in writing?

Frequently Asked Questions

Filling out a form and getting in touch with us comes with no obligations. Even if you’re unsure about the process, what do you have to lose?

Traditional real estate agents will market your home and list it on the MLS for you. They will be available for walk-throughs and handle the critical legal paperwork. They will also take a fee.

A professional cash home-buying group like ourselves is the actual buyer and we pay cash so that we can cut out the middle men.

That is the best part of selling your home with us – there are no other fees! You don’t have to pay a commission to an agent, closing costs, or anything else since we are a cash homebuyer.

We have a specific formula that we use that takes into account many different factors, one of them being the current state of the home.

That’s a great question and one that causes the most concern with sellers. We have a specific formula that we use in order to calculate the fair market value of your home in its current condition.

The best part about working with us is that we’re not a traditional real estate agency. We buy homes to fix them up and resell them, which may involve the MLS at that point, but we would have already personally purchased the home from you in order to fix it up and resell it.
