FAQ
Maybe you have a few questions. That’s okay; most people do. So here’s a quick collection of some of the questions people ask us… along with our answers. If you still have a question, don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) and we’ll be happy to answer it for you.
How are you different from a real estate agent?
Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 6-12 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 5-7% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $5,000 – $7,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. But that’s where we’re different: We actually buy the home ourselves. Since we’re actually the one buying the house from you, and we pay with all cash… we can make a decision to buy your house immediately. Again, we make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, repair the house, and market it ourselves to find a buyer (which is the hard part in this market).

Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us… and we won’t hassle you, won’t harass you… it’s 100% your decision and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.

Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to us. We’ll make you an offer, and if it’s a fit then we’ll buy your house (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking all of the risk here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not, once we buy the house from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and it’s payments… and often with cash in your hand).

Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
Great question. We DO NOT want to list your house we want to BUY your house. We are professional home buyers: We buy houses in Tuscaloosa that meet our purchasing criteria. From there we may repair the house and resell it to another home owner or keep it as a rental ourselves.

Do you pay fair prices for properties?
Many of the houses we purchase are below market value (we do this so we can resell it at a profit to another home owner). We are looking to get a fair discount on a property. However, in our experience, many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property but rather appreciate that we can offer cash, we close very quickly (no waiting for financing), and no time or effort or expense is required on your part of fix up the property or pay agent fees. If that’s what you’re looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold fast… let’s see if we can come to a fair win-win price. (Besides, our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s good to know what we’re offering!)

How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
Great question, and we’re an open book: Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and values of comparable houses sold in the area recently. As you know, house values have taken a huge hit in the last 5 years and most areas still haven’t seen prices come back up. We take many pieces of information into consideration… and come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you too.

Why Sell To Us?
Even if an agent can’t sell your house, we can help. (Sometimes selling a house through a real estate agent is not for everyone.)
And as a bonus…
You don't need to clean up or repair the property
You won't need to sign a contract that binds you to an agent for a certain time
Don't waste time finding an agent
Don't deal with the paperwork, waiting, or wondering and hoping
We’ll know very quickly if we can help you, and unlike selling through an agent, you don’t have to wait to see if the buyer can get financing… we’re ready to buy right now!
All that hassle can add stress, months to the process, and in the end after paying the agent’s expensive fees, you may or may not be ahead of the game.
We work differently at Act First Properties. When you contact us and submit the short property information form (below), we’ll give you a fair all-cash offer on your house within 24 hours… and the best part is: we can close whenever YOU choose to close – it’s entirely up to you.
Selling to Act First Properties vs. Listing with a Local Alabama Agent
Act First Properties
Even in a sellers market like AL, it’s smart to look at your options and see what will actually help you best reach your goals with the sale of your house. While you may be able to get a higher “top line” sales price listing with a local Tuscaloosa home buyer agent, that doesn’t always boil down to more money in your pocket or less headache. Dive into the details below to compare your options.
Selling with an
- 6% Commission Fee paid by you, the seller
- 2% Closing costs paid by you, the seller
- Possibility of sale falling through due to Inspection or Financing Contingency*
- Appraisal needed
- Can take +/- 91 Days to Sell
- Can require multiple showings
- Closing date 30 to 60 days out
- Repairs need to be made
Selling with
- NO Commissions
- We pay ALL costs
- NO Contingencies
- NO Appraisal Needed
- Immediate Cash Offer
- Only 1 Showing (Just Us)
- Close When You Want
- NO Repairs needed
*An inspection contingency lets the buyer have time to do an inspection and back out of the sale or negotiate a new price if there are repairs that need to be done. If you can’t come to an agreement with the buyer, the buyer has the right to back out of the sale. Similar, a financing contingency gives the buyer the wiggle room to back out of the purchase if they can’t obtain a loan or if the home doesn’t appraise for the value that the bank needs to close the loan.
At Act First properties, we don’t use bank financing so you don’t have to worry about our ability to close on a deal.
