My boyfriend and I decided to move to the other side of the country.
We left before we had a chance to sell our house in Jacksonville, Florida.
We found a Jacksonville real estate company that was willing to work with us even though we weren’t in town. We gave them power of attorney so they could show the house to anyone that they wanted. We were only looking for cash home buyers. We told the real estate agent that we were only interested in cash home buyers, but she still presented us with several different options. I tried to get the real estate agent to realize that we wanted to sell the house fast. It didn’t matter if we got 20% under the market value. We were on the other side of the country and we did not want to deal with the stress and hassle. We purchased the house at an auction and it was already worth a lot more than it was when we made the purchase. My boyfriend and I decided to list the house ourselves and we put it on a couple of websites that are only for cash home buyers. We got a cash home offer for the property before the real estate agent did. The cash home offer was a little low, but after 6 months my boyfriend and I were ready to be done with the whole situation. We signed all of the paperwork digitally and the money for the house sale was deposited into our account a few days later. It was a very quick and easy transaction and we did not have to give the realtor any of the money.
