My husband and I were in the process of listing our own home for sale when my father passed away.
- This was a very difficult time for my family.
Acquiring my father’s townhouse simply added to the stress. I suddenly had my own property to deal with as well as inheriting another property with my brother and sister. I simply didn’t have the time, energy or budget to make any repairs or updates to my father’s home. Sorting, packing up and deciding what to do with his belongings was enough of a challenge. I also needed to arrange for a new roof and new electrical panel for my own house. My husband and I hoped to paint and do some landscaping to elevate the value. My brother, sister and I considered various options and decided to sell the townhouse for cash. We knew that a traditional sale would require inspections, a new septic and potentially a new roof. I filled out several online forms with various cash home buyers. I was very careful to only reach out to those companies that provide no-obligation offers. A local, Jacksonville company provided a very quick and fair offer. As a family-owned company, they were far more attentive to our needs and compassionate about our situation. They helped us to navigate the steps of closing without complications or delays. Before accepting the offer, my brother, sister and I asked an attorney to review the contract. Everything was honest, straightforward and reasonable. Moving forward was smooth and swift. It was such a relief to take care of the townhouse and be able to focus more fully on the sale of my own home.
