The real estate market has not just slowed down, it is almost standing still. Each and every month there are more houses on the market for sale and les homes are sold. So how do you sell a house fast in the very slow real estate market? You have to find and receive an offer from the right home buyer for your house.

When it comes to selling your home you have very few options, especially if you need a quick sale. You can try to sell your house by yourself with a for sale with owner company. You can list your home with a real estate agent who will put your home on the multiple listing service and hope for a buyer. Or you can sell your home to a real estate investor who buys homes fast from motivated home sellers.

There are many reasons home owners need to sell their house quickly, hare are just a few.
Going through a divorce
Need to stop foreclosure fast
Inherited a property
Your house needs fixed up
You are being transferred by your job
You do not have enough equity to pay realtor commissions
You mortgage is going to adjust and you will not be able to afford the payment
Recent loss of job

The real estate market is very slow across the nation. The home that you used to love can quickly become a huge life anchor limiting you from happiness. This is why I recommend receiving a free, confidential, no obligation offer for your house from a local home buyer. They exist in every major metro market in the nation and they buy houses fast.

Not all real estate investors are out to take advantage of home owners. Many are hard working individuals who make a living from solving complicated real estate situations.
So in order to sell a house in this current economy I suggest using the sometime less obvious way to sell your house, your local home buyer. You will not have to pay any money and you can move from your house quickly.

Shaun,

I suggest checking your stats again on the market.  In your area, (and mine) in Boise, we are having declines in inventory and increased sales for month to month and year to year comparisons.  The tide has turned again finally.

Jim, I think you may have spoke a little too soon. One month of above avg. sales does not mean the real estate market is turning. here are the % changes in single family homes sold year /year.

July 08: -24%

Aug 08: -21.59%

Sept 08: +18.8%

Oct 08: -7.85% 

I think we saw an increase in sales for the month of Sept because of 2 major changes. 1st the minimum down payment required increased from 3% to 3.5%. The other major change was that the FHA seller financed down payment assistance was going away in October.

These two changes that were widely known in the lending world pushed lenders and home owners to move quick in the month of September....I'm sure you saw your business increase in September because of this. These small changes do not affect the over all supply and demand of the market in our valley.

I track 10 key economic factors in our valley and we have not hit bottom yet.
