My grandmother recently passed away and I got her home in the will.
I didn’t want it at all.
First, her home was in shambles. She hadn’t updated the space in years. The walls were all stained and dingy. The floors were rotten and coming up in places. The kitchen and bathroom needed serious updates. I was extremely upset to inherit such an expensive piece of property. I knew selling the house on the market was going to be a pain. First, you need to factor in real estate agent costs. Then, I knew any buyer would want me to make a bunch of repairs and updates on the property. I didn’t want to sink my own money into a place that I had no emotional attachment over. I ended up looking at options. I googled to sell my ugly home fast for cash. I found a buyer that does single-family home cash sales. They were willing to offer me a price and then just take it. I could walk away without lifting a finger. I took a few things to remember my grandmother, but for the most part, I just handed them the keys and that was it. Since I wasn’t into the house financially at all, the cash was pure profit for me. Maybe in the long run I could have made more money updating the place, but I didn’t want to. Selling an inherited home fast for cash is the easiest, smartest way to do things in my opinion. I wouldn’t want to list a property that needs updates.
