Moving to senior living? The house can be the easy part.
Whether the move is yours or a parent's, there's already a lot to arrange. Ken buys the house as it is and sets the closing date around the move.
Close when the move works
Close before the move-in date or after it. Family, or whoever holds power of attorney, can be part of every conversation.
Leave what won't fit
Take the things that matter. Talk with Ken about the furniture and belongings that won't come along.
Cash or terms
Take the money at closing, or ask Ken about terms that pay you over time.
Three ways to sell to Ken
Cash, as it is
Ken buys the house in its current condition and pays at closing. No repairs, no cleanup, no showings and no agent commissions.
Usually the simplest way to sell: one payment at closing.
On terms
Terms are often the quickest way to sell, and they can help with taxes, possibly help you stay in your home, and bring a higher price.
Ken explains how each option works before you decide anything.
Top dollar with an agent
If cash or terms doesn't fit, Ken can connect you with a rock star real estate agent who knows how to get top dollar. This takes longer and involves more hassles, like showings, repairs, and multiple negotiations. Ken can connect you with the best agents in the area.
What happens after you send the note
Ken calls you
He asks about the house, what it needs and what matters to you, including your timing.
He looks at the house
A short visit, or photos if that's easier. No cleaning or repairs first.
You get options in writing
Cash, terms or both, with the numbers explained. If one fits, a local title company handles the closing. There's no obligation to accept.
