Frequently Asked Questions
At this point, you probably have quite a few questions about who we are and why we love doing what we do. Here is a quick collection of some of the questions people have asked us, along with our answers. Don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) anytime. We’d love to chat about our process and how we buy Connecticut area houses fast and for a fair cash price!
We are not agents and we don’t list houses. We are professional home buyers that buy houses in Connecticut that meet our purchasing criteria. Once we purchase a house or rental property, we may repair it to resell it or keep it as a rental ourselves. There are some instances where we do assign the rights of the purchase agreement to other trusted partners we work with. In all instances, we will close on the property and you will get your promised price we agreed on.
While selling your home without an agent means avoiding agent fees, you'll still encounter significant costs such as attorney fees, closing costs, holding costs, title insurance, escrow costs, and more for as long as you own the property.
Many of the houses we purchase are below market value so we can resell them at a profit after we’ve upgraded them and made any necessary repairs. We are 100% transparent with our process. We are looking to work with homeowners that appreciate that we can offer them cash for their property, close very quickly with no waiting for financing, and won’t have to fix up the property or pay any 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 up with a price that is a win-win for both parties. Our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s always good to find out your options!
Our offers are based on the After Repaired Value (ARV) of your house. The after-repair value is determined by comparing your house after renovations to those of similar build in the neighborhood. This way we can make the highest fair offers for your house where we can walk away with our minimum profits, you with the cash you need, and make it a win-win situation for everyone! Our goal is to keep things simple and transparent. Visit the How It Works page to find out more about how we calculate our offers!
When you sell your Connecticut house directly to KD Buys Houses, there are absolutely NO fees or commissions. We’ll make you an offer and – if it’s a fit – we’ll buy your house with no hassles, no fees, and often no closing costs. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit. The responsibility is ours and you walk away without having to worry one more month about making another expensive mortgage payment or repair.
Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. Once the house is sold (which can take anywhere from 60+ days to much, much longer), the agent’s commission is 3 to 6% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that have the time and money to wait, but where KD Buys Houses is different is that we’re not agents. We’re home buyers that buy houses directly from the owners. We don’t list houses.
Since we’re the ones buying the directly house from you for cash and don’t have to rely on traditional bank financing, we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple of days (sometimes the same day). We make our living by taking the risk to buy your unwanted Connecticut area property with our own cash, repair the house, and market it ourselves to find a buyer.
Our process to get you an all-cash offer for your house or property is 100% obligation-free. Tell us a bit about your property and we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an 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 or shop around our offer to see what else is out there.
No! This is the advantage in working with KD Buys Houses. Take what you want, leave what you want. We absolutely mean it.
