How Your Cash Offer Is Actually Calculated
1. We start with what your home is worth repaired
Every offer begins with the after-repair value — what your house would sell for on the open market in fully updated condition. We pull recent sales of comparable homes within roughly a mile of your property, adjusting for square footage, bed/bath count, lot size, year built and condition. This is the same comparable-sales approach a licensed appraiser uses.
2. We subtract the cost to bring it to market condition
Next we estimate renovation costs based on the condition details you share and the photos of the property. Cosmetic refreshes (paint, flooring, fixtures) cost far less per square foot than homes needing roof, HVAC, electrical or foundation work. You never pay for any of this — it comes out of our side of the math, not your pocket.
3. We account for carrying and resale costs
Taxes, insurance, utilities, and eventual resale costs while we own and renovate the home are factored in. What's left after those deductions is your net cash offer — a real number we're prepared to put in writing, not a teaser range designed to be renegotiated later.
What "no repairs" really means
You don't fix anything, clean anything, or stage anything. Leave behind furniture and belongings you don't want. We buy in as-is condition — including homes with fire damage, code violations, tenants in place, or deferred maintenance.
What closing costs look like
There is no agent commission and no listing fee. We cover standard closing costs on our side. You're still responsible for your existing mortgage payoff, any liens, and prorated property taxes — all of which are settled directly out of the proceeds at the closing table.
Timeline specifics
Address to offer: typically 24–48 hours. Offer accepted to title work started: same day. Title search and clearing: about 5–10 business days in most counties. Closings can happen in as little as 7 days, or 60+ days out if you need time to find your next place.
SilverCrest vs. Listing With an Agent
A traditional listing can net more on paper. A direct sale nets certainty, speed, and zero out-of-pocket cost. Here's the honest side-by-side.
| Sell to SilverCrest | Traditional listing | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to close | As little as 7 days | 60–90 days on average |
| Commissions & fees | $0 | 5–6% of sale price |
| Repairs before sale | None — sold as-is | Often required to list or after inspection |
| Showings & open houses | None | Ongoing, often on short notice |
| Certainty of sale | Cash — no financing contingency | Roughly 1 in 7 contracts fall through |
| Closing date control | You pick the date | Dictated by buyer's lender |
| Cleaning & staging | Not required | Typically expected |
Cash Offer Questions, Answered
How fast will I get my offer?
Most sellers receive a cash offer within 24 to 48 hours of submitting their address and property details. If the home is straightforward and public records are complete, it can be the same day.
Is there any obligation once I get the offer?
None. The offer is free and non-binding. You can take it, counter it, sit on it while you talk to an agent, or walk away entirely. Nothing is owed and nothing is signed until you choose to move forward.
Do you buy homes in any condition?
Yes. We buy houses that need roofs, HVAC, foundation work, or full gut renovations, as well as homes with fire or water damage, code violations, hoarding situations, or tenants currently living in them. You don't clean, repair, or remove anything.
How is the cash offer amount determined?
We estimate the home's value in fully renovated condition using recent comparable sales nearby, then subtract the renovation cost, carrying costs, and resale costs. What remains is your offer. We'll walk you through the numbers line by line if you want to see them.
Do I have to pay commissions or closing costs?
There is no commission and no listing fee. We cover standard closing costs on our side. Your mortgage payoff, any liens, and prorated property taxes are settled out of the proceeds at closing, so nothing comes out of pocket.
Can I choose my closing date?
Yes. Closings can happen in as little as 7 days once title is clear, or you can push the date out weeks or months if you need time to find your next home or coordinate a move.
