We look at the values of comparable houses sold in the area recently, the cost of repairs needed, and an amount for contingency and profit margin. We work with you to make sure that the transaction is a win-win for both parties.

Q: Will You settle on time?
A: We Settle on time, every time. When we make you an offer and you accept, we can settle on your house in as little as 7 days or up to 12 months if you prefer. With that fixed cash offer, you’ll know how much cash you’ll receive at settlement.
Some other cash home buyers lower their offers at the last minute. We didn’t get to be Christchurch’s most Trusted Home Buyer with shady tactics like that. We pay cash, so there are no delays or postponements while you wait for bank loan approvals or financing to come through.
Q: Is this even legit?
A: Yes The real estate industry is rapidly changing, and hundreds of Kiwis are exploring their options when it comes to selling their house in the fastest, easiest, and most transparent way. That’s where we come in. We offer an alternative for those who may not have the time or ability to list their house on the market. We’ll work with you to assess your situation, make you a transparent all-cash offer and settle on your timeline.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my info or request an offer?
A: No obligation at all. Once you tell us a bit about your home, we’ll do some research and see if it’s something that we are interested in. Then we set up a time to meet with you. We can make an all-cash offer with terms to suit. If it makes sense to you and us, then we will buy your home.
Q: Will I get a low-ball offer?
A: Our goal is to provide you with the fairest offer possible. Unlike other buyers, we’re transparent with how we arrive at an offer amount. We’re happy to walk you through how it works. We will make you a fair cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us.
Q: Are We Buy Homes Trustworthy.?
A: Unfortunately, every industry has people that are dodgy, untruthful and not transparent. We have built our reputation on being honest, upfront and transparent.
