Right.
I get mail from WBUHs every month, along with mail offers from about 3 similar firms.
My house is in a nice area, but 33 years old. Their offers say they will buy “as is” regardless of any faults; and the offers are a range from about $30k-50k below market value.
Being 76, I’ve considered selling to them; I would have to spend about $20k of my money to make the house suitable to offer for sale. ....Plus, their offers are still about $100k over what I originally paid for the house.
The stresses involved in selling the house often make these low offers worthwhile,especially as we get older.
