Why Sell To Us?
There are several scenarios that might compel you to want to sell your house quickly with a minimum of fuss. Some examples include a mandated asset division in the case of divorce, an inheritance of a home that you do not intend to live in, work relocation that requires a quick sale of your home before finding a new one, or the sudden death of a spouse that leaves the surviving spouse preferring to relocate. Whatever the specifics of your situation, Twin Cities Home Buyers will customize a solution.

Case Study: "Lois"
In the last example above, the widow (we'll call her "Lois") may find herself overwhelmed. Her husband used to take care of the house but lately many repairs had been neglected. Though the house, with all its quirks and "character," was completely acceptable to them, a new-home buyer would consider it to be in a state of disrepair and the décor outdated. Additionally, over the years, the couple amassed a great number of possessions that slowly cluttered up their home--some valuable, some merely sentimental, some of little worth.
Lois feels that this is more than she can handle on her own. She does not care to live in the large home by herself and would prefer to make a switch to an assisted living facility. But she does not have the desire or know-how to get the house decluttered, cleaned, repaired, redecorated, and ready for sale. So she calls Twin Cities Home Buyers to help her.

How We Can Help
After Lois contacts us by filling out the online form on our website, she receives a call from our specialist, who engages her in a dialogue that includes listening to her story, posing questions designed to understand how we can best help her, and setting up a visit for a walk-through of her home.
During the walk-through, the specialist continues to discuss with Lois the specifics of her situation. He learns that she is intimidated by the daunting task of going through each household item and making a decision what to do with it. A process is set up whereby Lois chooses the items that she wants to keep, and our team will sort through the rest, selling what is of value, donating what is of little value, and discarding the remainder. The proceeds from the sale of these items are added to the check that Lois will receive once the home is sold.
Once the house is decluttered, our team of contractors steps in, tackling everything from minor fix-it jobs to renovations where needed, to the final staging of the house for sale. Our sales team takes care of all of the open houses and showings, so Lois is free to focus on the things that matter most to her moving forward.
One of her primary concerns is the coordination of timing between the closing on the assisted living apartment she has selected, and that of the sale of her home. An agreement is written with a flexible, or "open," closing date, so that once a buyer is found for her home, the closings can be conducted simultaneously, allowing Lois to make a smooth transition from occupancy of her home to the apartment.
