Our philosophy is to help people. We would hope you give us a call at 713-412-7967 or complete the "Seller Form" on the Online Forms Section of our website.

If we can help you sell your home by yourself, that's great. If not, we are there to help you. Why would we do this? Well because we have helped many people in the past and we find that in life, the more you give, the more you get back. And, if we can help you sell your home, all we ask is to speak well about us and refer us to anyone who has a home to sell. Does that sound good to you?

We have a tremendous number of people whom we have helped over the years.

We would hope that you call us first, so we can consult with you. We can go over all the different options that you have and how we can help you. We will present you with at least three ways of purchasing your property. We will take all the risk. There are no fees, no commissions or any obligations on your part and if you don't like our offers, then you are free to list it with a Realtor or sell the house yourself. You have nothing to lose. And if we do not do business, we will part as friends. Does that sound fair?

We also recommend that you check out our Special Report: "How to Sell Your Home in 24 hours."

So lets get started.

The first part of this section explains some of the ways you can sell your home. The second part of this section will explain some of our unique home buying programs.

Your Real Estate Options For Selling Your Home

1. Sell for ALL CASH - obtain a buyer who will qualify for a mortgage and "Cash you out." This can be accomplished in two ways:
   1. Sell your home by yourself. Considerations: Marketing costs, travel costs, telephone screening, time factor, negotiating expertise, compete with Realtor properties and new home construction, qualifying a potential buyer for financing, constant flow of potential buyers, keeping house in "Show" condition.
   2. Sell your home through a Realtor, ie. List it. Considerations: 6-7% commission expense, reduction from list price if it doesn't sell quickly, a large universe to work from, as many as 25,000 homes, the average home takes months to sell...if it sells or if a mortgage doesn't "fall through," you can't be sure your Realtor will have the same sense of URGENCY to sell your house, Realtors rely on a buyer's agent to sell your house.
2. Sell for part cash and take back a note or mortgage for the balance, i.e. Collect your equity in monthly payments to you.
3. Sell on a Lease/Option - Rent the home to a Tenant/Buyer who has the right to purchase the home in the future.
4. Rent it out yourself to a tenant.
5. If you do not have any equity in the property, deed the property back to the bank or a 3rd party.

There are many factors that make us different from other companies. One of the biggest, however, is our commitment to working together to serve our customers. All of our departments form one team that is focused on our customer's needs.

Cash Buy Department

The Cash Buy Department provides people who want to sell their home FAST with a quick and simple approach to divesting their property. This process appeals to families settling an estate, being transferred, getting divorced, behind on their payments, facing foreclosure, don't want or JUST CAN'T SELL for a number of reasons. Some of these reasons could be that it is in a bad neighborhood, needs a lot of repairs, is functionally laid out poorly(small rooms, walking through one bedroom to get to another bedroom, only one small bathroom, small kitchen etc.), vacant, fire damaged.

The person who would prefer to sell their home quickly and conveniently is similar to a person who would go to a 7-11 store or a Circle K store for food products. Did you ever go to a fast food place and buy a small Pepsi for $1.09 knowing that you could purchase a whole 2 liter bottle for 89 cents? Did you ever go to a hot dog stand and pay $2.50 for a hotdog, knowing that you could go to the Ralph’s or Albertson’s and purchase a whole pound of hotdogs for what you paid for one?

Did you ever go to a 7-11 store or Circle K store and pay double for an item that you know you could have gotten cheaper elsewhere?

Well, then why did you do this? ---- FOR CONVENIENCE.

You went to a convenience store for exactly that --- convenience. Well, we are similar to that, but we're even better.

Look at what we can offer.

1. A fast settlement.
2. No contingencies - Will buy the property "as is." No need to make repairs.
3. No real estate commissions.
4. No closing fees.
5. No more payments.
6. No worries.
7. No sleepless nights.
8. No night sweats.
9. No more stress in your life, you can get on with it.
10. And many more other benefits which we think you can figure out.

In return for this, we are going to make a profit somewhere down the line. However, when you factor in all the fees, commissions, holding costs, sales costs, expenses, time and aggravation YOU will have to endure, our solution in most cases is the highest and best solution that you could receive.

Why is that? Because we use our 14 years of experience and management expertise to get you the best possible solution to your problem.

Check it out and if you think that our solutions do not meet your needs, then we will leave and part as friends.

After all, what we are actually doing is purchasing your equity for cash. Now, cash is not the same as equity. Cash has a value. It is liquid. It can be transported. It costs nothing to hold (in fact, most people get interest on their cash). It gives you peace of mind. We offer the following benefits when we purchase for cash: We buy in 'as is' condition, no contingencies, settlement in as little as 15 days, less picky about the property, you can get on with your life, no time constraints, relieve stress, family can move together, no waiting to see if mortgage will be approved, definite settlement, you can save your credit (if applicable).

Many people have the perception that we are going to present them with a lowball offer. However, after our clients do a bit of research and investigation, they will find that our cash offer is very close to the market price minus typical holding and selling costs, such as Realtor fees. My job is to present homeowners with their options so they may then make the decision that is right for them. As part of the IBuyHousesDirect.com team, if a cash buy is not right for the client, I have the resources to offer and implement a more appropriate option for that homeowner.

Lease/Option & Option Department

The Lease/Option Department provides homeowners with a quick and simple approach to sell their property and relieve their debt payments. This process appeals to families who want to be relieved of their debt load. The transaction can usually be completed in a few days with a minimal amount of paperwork.

This simplified process appeals to families or persons who want to get out from under that debt load that they are carrying. We will lease the house, make the payments, be responsible for all maintenance, pay cash when we buy and handle all of the management and paperwork at no expense to the homeowner. Understanding that this method utilizes getting a new Tenant/Buyer for the house we thoroughly screen the Tenant/Buyer. After all, we have a vested interest in making sure that we can get the Tenant/Buyer purchase the property. While we have the property leased we make your payments and keep the home in good repair. Everything is spelled out in writing for your protection. Also, we are in this for the long term and our reputation is very important. We get a lot of referrals from satisfied customers. However, if the homeowner doesn't want a Tenant/Buyer in his property, we can option the property. We will then use our marketing team to market the home.

These are only a few of the possible ways by which we can purchase property. We have many more ways to purchase. What we basically do is analyze the situation and develop a number of ways to purchase the property. Then it is up to the homeowner to decide which situation best fits his or her needs.

100% Market Value Buying Program

This program is primarily for homes that presently have no mortgages, are free and clear of any encumbrances, or have no qualifying financing available.

We can purchase your home for the full market value if you are willing to accept monthly payments.

Why would you do this? There are many reasons:

1. You get a guaranteed monthly income secured by the real estate. This is the best loan you can get, because it is secured by real estate, as opposed to loans that are secured by cars, inventory or no collateral at all (non secured loans).
2. You only pay taxes when the income is received as opposed to paying income taxes on a large chunk of cash.

5. Plus you will get the sale DONE, and get it done NOW. You can make plans to get on with your life because you know that the home is definitely sold.
6. AND you get accustomed to that nice monthly payment coming in every month.

Luxury Home Cash Program

This program is primarily for the more expensive and pristine homes in excellent condition. Homes that are over $700,000.

We have developed a new and innovative program for High Value Luxury Homes that will make it very easy to sell your home extremely fast and receive ALL CASH.

No price too high. (that means $700,000, $800,000, $1,000,000, $2,000,000 and more) Call our office at 888-871-9518 today for further details or just click on the "Online Forms" button and fill out the Seller Form.

Lease Option and Taking over payments Advantages –

1. Debt relief.
2. No management.
3. No repairs.
4. Saves/Improves your credit.
5. Helps you (the seller) qualify for new financing.
   1. On Lease Options the bank will only consider 75% of the rental payments as income
   2. When we take over payments, the bank will consider the full 100% payments as income.

Now, after all is said and done, you might ask the question, "Why can't I just do this myself?" And the answer is "You probably could." If you had experience in leases, real estate law, negotiating, sales, writing contracts, doing minor repairs, having the time and energy necessary to complete the deal etc. etc. And we will give you any tips that you might need to help you. However, if you find that this is pretty overwhelming, (and in most instances, when you are out of your area of expertise, it can be), then we are there to help.

Ask yourself these questions

1. Can I do this myself? --- Yes, you can IF you have the knowledge, time, experience and education to do the things necessary.
2. What are the necessary things.
   1. Have the time.
   2. Have the knowledge.
   3. Pre-qualify the buyer.
   4. Be able to get financing for him.
   5. Have a working knowledge of all the proper forms to use.
   6. Follow up on ALL the DETAIL work (and there is LOTS of it).
3. Are you prepared to manage tenants over the years and handled the numerous problems that arise?
4. Well then, why don't I go to someone else? (another investor or my attorney) Ask them these questions:
   1. Do they own and manage real estate themselves?
   2. Is this their BUSINESS on a day to day basis or are they just dabbling at it?
   3. What is their standing in the business community?
   4. Do they have the capital (MONEY) and the expertise to really do the deal from start to finish?
