What Is Simple Sale? A Platform for Selling Your Home Fast
2 min read
There are a growing number of companies in the U.S. providing all-cash offers to purchase your home. According to ATTOM Data Solutions, cash sales accounted for 38% of single-family home and condo sales last year, the highest rate since 2014. This increase is in part due to a rise in instant-offer cash options available to home sellers today.
This article will not attempt to explain all the different iBuyers, investors or franchisors who buy homes for cash and how they operate. The purpose of this post is to introduce you to HomeLight’s all-cash offer platform that simplifies the entire process.
The platform is called Simple Sale, and it offers a number of benefits to someone who needs to sell their home quickly and with fewer hassles than a traditional listing.
What is Simple Sale?
Simple Sale is an all-cash offer platform created by HomeLight. It takes the stress and uncertainty out of selling your home.
It’s a fast, free online tool that provides a competitive, no-obligation cash offer to buy your home. Simple Sale also compares your cash offer amount with an estimation of what a seller would likely receive if they chose to list their home instead.
As an added value, Simple Sale also recommends top-rated agents in your area based on transaction data. The online platform reveals which agents sell the most in your market and price range so, as a seller, you can be more empowered and informed, whether you choose to list with a top local agent or sell for cash.
“We built Simple Sale for home sellers and agents to better understand their options,” HomeLight told the Wall Street Journal when Simple Sale first launched in 2019. “[Simple Sale] gives price estimates for each option, so users can be confident in their decision.”
As the name suggests, HomeLight’s Simple Sale platform provides:
Convenient, all-cash offer in 24 hours
Fast closing, in as few as 10 days from start to finish
No agent commissions, and no unexpected or hidden fees
Sell your house as-is, with little to no repairs or renovations required
No need to market, stage, or show your home
Simple and smooth process
Selling your home does not need to be stressful. With Simple Sale, you eliminate the uncertainty and risk of a traditional mortgage-backed sale falling through, and you can often pick your own closing date.
