Questions before a cash sale
A vacant house still needs decisions about insurance, utilities, access, and upkeep. Organize those responsibilities and compare a direct purchase with the cost of keeping the property ready for a listing.
Should I cancel insurance or utilities once I accept an offer?
Do not assume the property has transferred when an offer is accepted. Confirm responsibilities and timing with your insurer, service providers, and escrow before changing arrangements.
What should I prepare before a review?
Record who checks the home, its current condition, utility status and authorized access. Use dated observations rather than assuming that the last visit still describes it. Include known damage or unfinished work without entering unsafe areas to inspect.
How should I compare the proposal for this situation?
Estimate the actual cost of holding the house while preparing a listing and compare an as-is proposal with the same condition assumptions. Ask who handles contents, cleaning and any inspection access. Leave unknown expenses blank until a responsible provider supplies an estimate.
What needs agreement before handing over the property?
Agree on the key transfer and who remains responsible for checking the vacant property until handover. Confirm insurance and utility questions with the relevant providers. A purchase discussion does not make the buyer responsible for maintaining a house it has not taken possession of.
Does requesting an offer commit me to selling?
No. A request starts a discussion. Review any proposed purchase agreement carefully before signing and compare alternatives.
Is the purchase price what I receive?
Not necessarily. Mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, prorations, and agreed expenses can affect proceeds. Ask escrow for a property-specific estimate.
