Maybe you have a few questions. That’s okay; most people do. Here is 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 anytime. We would be happy to answer it for you.

Q:  Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A:  Great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list houses. Here at We Buy Houses- Fayette County, we are professional home buyers: We buy houses Fayette County that meet our purchasing criteria, and we don’t use bank financing so you don’t have to worry about our ability to close on a deal. After purchasing, we may repair the house and resell it to another homeowner or keep it as a rental ourselves.

Q:  How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: 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 4-6 months) and then takes a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3 to 6% of the sale price of your house. If it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 to $6,000 in commissions to an agent.

Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 4+ 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’re not agents, we’re home buyers. Our company buys the house directly from you. Since we pay with all cash and purchase the house from you, we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple of days (sometimes even the same day). 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.

Looking for this to be broken down further? Here’s a comparison chart to give an overview:

Closing Date:30-60+/- days after accepting the buyer’s offerThe date of YOUR CHOICE.
Who Pays For Repairs?Negotiated during the inspection periodWe pay for all repairs.
*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. Similarly, 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.

Q:  Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A:  Many of the houses we purchase are below market value. We do this so we can resell it at a profit to another homeowner. We are looking to get a fair discount on a property. In our experience, many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property. Instead, they appreciate that we can offer cash, we close very quickly (no waiting for financing), and no time, effort, or expense is required on your part to 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 win-win price for both parties. Our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you don’t have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s good to know what we’re offering!

(plus the cost and timeline) of selling your house to a real estate investor versus the pros, cons, and costs of the other two alternatives – listing with an agent or selling it yourself.

Q:  How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A:  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 the value of comparable houses sold in the area recently. Taking the many pieces of information into consideration, we come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you, too.

Q:  Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: 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 directly to us compared to listing fees, where up to 6% comes out of your pocket. We’ll make you an offer and, if it’s a fit, then we’ll buy your house with no hassles and no fees. We’ll often pay for the closing costs, too! We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house and sell it for a profit. We’re taking the risks 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 its payments, as well as cash in your hand.

Q:  Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: 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. We’ll let you decide what’s right for you.

Q:  What’s the fastest way I can sell my house in Fayette County, PA?
A: If you need to sell your house fast in Fayette County, PA, the quickest option is selling directly to a local cash home buyer like We Buy Houses- Fayette County. When you sell to a cash buyer, you skip every step that slows down a traditional sale — no listing on the MLS, no waiting for a buyer to get approved for financing, no appraisals, no inspection negotiations, and no open houses. Once you fill out our short form or call us at (724) 578-5650, we can have a fair cash offer in your hands within 24 hours and close in as little as 7 days. Compare that to the traditional route, where the average home in the Fayette County area can sit on the market for 60–90+ days before closing. Whether you’re facing foreclosure, relocating for work, going through a divorce, or just need cash quickly, we can move on your schedule — not a bank’s. There is no faster way to sell a house in Fayette County than a direct cash sale.

Q:  How do I sell my house quickly in Fayette County without spending money on repairs?
A: Selling a house fast in Fayette County doesn’t have to mean spending thousands on renovations or repairs. We Buy Houses- Fayette County buys properties in any condition — as-is. Whether your house has a leaking roof, outdated electrical, storm damage, code violations, or years of deferred maintenance, we’ll make you a cash offer and handle all the repairs ourselves after closing. You don’t need to clean, paint, stage, or fix a single thing. Traditional buyers and real estate agents will almost always ask you to make repairs or reduce the price after an inspection — we never do. We assess the property in its current condition, factor in repair costs on our end, and give you a straightforward cash offer with no surprises. For homeowners in Connellsville, Uniontown, Perryopolis, and throughout Fayette County who need to sell fast without sinking more money into a property, this is the simplest path forward.

Q:  How do I sell my house in Pennsylvania without a realtor?
A: Selling your house in Pennsylvania without a realtor is completely legal and can save you the 5–6% commission that would otherwise come out of your sale price. The two main options are selling it yourself (FSBO — For Sale By Owner) or selling directly to a cash home buyer. FSBO means you handle all the marketing, showings, negotiations, paperwork, and closing coordination yourself — which takes significant time and knowledge of PA real estate law. The faster and easier alternative is selling directly to We Buy Houses- Fayette County. We buy houses directly from homeowners across Fayette County with no agents involved — ever. There’s no MLS listing, no commission, no realtor fees, and no closing costs on your side (we cover them). The entire process is private and handled directly between you and us. Pennsylvania does require some legal disclosures when selling a home, but as experienced cash home buyers in Fayette County, we’ve handled hundreds of transactions and walk you through every step. You can have cash in hand without a single agent involved.

Q:  What can I do to sell my house faster in Fayette County?
A: If you’re trying to sell your house faster in Fayette County, your options depend on how quickly you need to move and how much effort you want to put in. If you’re listing on the market, pricing it aggressively from day one, completing minor cosmetic repairs, staging the home, and doing professional photography can all shorten your time on market. However, even with all of that, the average traditional sale in Fayette County still takes 60–90+ days from listing to closing. If speed is your priority, the single most effective thing you can do is request a cash offer from We Buy Houses- Fayette County today. You do nothing to the house. We come see it once, make an offer, and close on a date that works for you — often within 7–14 days. There’s no faster path to converting your Fayette County property into cash. We buy houses in any condition across all of Fayette County — including homes in Chalk Hill, Deer Lake, Markleysburg, and Ohiopyle — so no matter where your property is located or what shape it’s in, we’re ready to make an offer.
