How Do I Sell My House In The DMV?
by filling in the form below or calling us at (571) 207-5171. We want to learn more about your property, so we can present you an initial cash offer range.
If you are happy with our offer range, we will schedule a walkthrough to estimate repair costs. Within 24 hours, we will call you with our .
If you accept our cash offer, we will with our reputable local title company. It really is that simple!
Selling Your House In The DMV To The House Guys…
1) What Info Will You Need From Me?
Sell your house in the DMV fast by helping us gather some basic information about your home sale.
- Timeline to sell your property
- Current condition of the property
- Rooms that were renovated (if any)
- Your ultimate goal with the property
This information will help us figure out how we can provide the best solution for you (potentially beyond the typical cash offer).
2) Do You Give Your Cash Offer Right Away On The Phone?
No… We do not give our exact cash offer during the initial phone call, but we will give you an initial offer range.
Why Not? Other “We Buy Houses” Companies Make Offers Right Away On The Phone…
These companies will give you a wildly inflated offer to bring you in and lock you up in a legally binding contract. They will then use an “inspection report” to come back and ask for a price reduction.
This tactic is used more than you would think by multiple buyers in our DC market. It gives cash home buyers a bad name, and we can’t stand it!
3) How Do I Know You’re Not Going To Lowball Me?
If we made lowball offers, we would not be in business…
It is in our best interest to make you the highest possible cash offer because that is how we will beat our competition!
Our entire business is based on buying houses in the DMV.
If we can’t make fair offers, then we can’t buy houses.
Working With The House Guys Means Finding The Best Fit For Your Home Sale
If the value you have in mind for your home is outside of our offer range, we can discuss a couple options other than a cash offer that may be a better fit. We want to help whether it means you work with us or another company better suited for your situation.
How Our Cash Offer is Calculated…
[YOUR OFFER] = [ARV] – [REPAIR COSTS] – [SELLING COSTS] – [ROI]
This is the market value of your home after we buy and renovate your house.
This is what we estimate our cost will be to update the house to current market conditions, and it’s what you are saving (along with your time) if you sell your house to us!
This is an estimate of the cost of selling commissions, excise tax, property tax, utilities, insurance (title and property and escrow fees.) It’s typically around 10% of the ARV.
This is how we pay our contractors and keep the business running. If we didn’t return some level of profit, we wouldn’t be a great business!

What Makes Our Offers Better In The DMV?
“World’s Best Coffee!”
“America’s Favorite Burger.”
Always an exaggeration, right?
They never explain why!
The House Guys are not a one trick pony.
Although our main focus is fast cash offers for your home, we have several different options (none of which involve realtors) that we can make you.
If you choose the fast cash offer for your home sale, we guarantee our offer will be honest and fair.
However, it will not be for “full market value.” (We’re just being honest.)
Our cash offers will be as high as we are able to make them due to how efficient we’ve made our business over the years.
Some of our other home sale options can bring you even more than full market value. You read that right, more.
However, these options depend on the type of property you’re holding, etc.
Give us a call at (571) 207-5171 to learn about these other options. We want you to have a successful home sale. 🙂
Why Sell To You Instead Of Listing With A Realtor?
Even in a seller’s market, it’s smart to look at ALL of your options (check out our blog to help with this exploration) to 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 agent, that doesn’t always boil down to more money in your pocket or less headache.
Let’s compare selling your house in the DMV to The House Guys vs. with a local real estate agent…
Selling To The House Guys
- You pay 0% in commission and NO fees.
- We pay ALL closing costs.
- Close within 7-28 days or on your timeline.
- Sell in “as-is” condition without making any repairs.
- No formal inspections.
- No open houses or endless walkthroughs.
- No appraisal or financing contingencies.
Selling With A Real Estate Agent
- You typically pay 6% of the sales price in commission.
- You pay 2%-4% of the sales price in closing costs.
- Closing can take 60-90 days after accepting an offer.
- You need to make repairs to bring your home up to market standards.
- Many buyers request an inspection, which can drop the sale price or result in more repairs.
- Sometimes there are 20+ showings and open houses.
- If an appraisal comes back lower than expected, you may be forced to lower your sale price.
SCAM ALERT!
“How Do I Know You Will Close? And That This Is NOT A Scam?”
There are so many new investors and scammers out there that you’re smart to be questioning this. Getting the highest offer for your home means nothing if the buyer reduces the price after an “inspection”, cannot close, and the deal falls through. It’s very common for sellers to reach out to us after one (or sometimes multiple) failed closings with another “We buy houses” company in our area. They are frustrated and distrustful of investors.
That’s where The House Guys are different. Our small team makes honest and fair offers with the intent to close, always. Our offer will not be reduced later in the process. That’s why we receive so many positive reviews! 🙂
“How Can I Avoid Being Scammed?”
Professional Website
A business’s website is a direct reflection of who they are as a business and personally. Explore the site to see if the company shows who the people are behind the business. Look for pictures of the owner(s) and any possible employees. Check if they give you their names (first and last names are important, so you can cross check if they are a real person on Google).
Online Reviews
A legitimate business will have reviews online. We’re not talking about text inserted on the business’s home page… Verify there are reputable Google or Facebook reviews, as well as seller testimonials.
Contract Terms
Don’t fall for a tiny deposit that doesn’t get delivered to escrow for 30 days (The House Guys deposit within 48 hours). Many scammers use “weasel clauses” to leave a backdoor open for themselves. These are signs a buyer is not serious about closing.
