A Fair and Simple Sale in Fayetteville

When Ken inherited his mother's house in Fayetteville, he knew right away that it came with both sentimental value and big decisions. The home sat on a solid corner lot with plenty of potential, but it was outdated and full of decades of belongings.

Ken's Story

The house itself was sturdy and in a great location, but by modern standards, it needed updating. Kitchens and bathrooms were dated, the yard was cluttered, and an old storage shed was still packed with belongings. On top of that, various items were left throughout the house and yard. For Ken, the thought of coordinating clean outs, investing in renovations, and waiting for the right buyer felt overwhelming. He wanted to honor the property, but he also needed a path forward that did not demand months of work and thousands of dollars in prep costs.

The Solution

Ken reached out to Carolina Home Relief and was struck by how transparent and upfront the process felt. From the first conversation, he appreciated the honesty and straightforward communication. We toured the home, evaluated it as is, and presented an offer he felt was fair for both the house and the service we were providing. Ken decided to move forward, and once we went under contract, everything moved quickly and smoothly. He did not have to handle the leftover belongings, repair the house, or even worry about cleaning. We purchased the home exactly as it stood, including the filled storage shed and yard clutter, lifting a huge weight off his shoulders.

The Outcome

The sale closed quickly and without complications. Ken walked away relieved and satisfied, knowing he had gotten a fair price without having to take on the hassle of a traditional listing. What stood out most to him was how easy the process felt once things were in motion. For Ken, selling his mother's home was not just about parting with a property. It was about finding a way forward without adding stress to an already emotional process.

Ken Dimsdale Google Review

"I inherited my mothers house which was in good shape, but outdated by today's standards. Faced with having to update or sell as is, I called Carolina Home Relief. I spoke with Nathan and set up an appointment for him to evaluate the property. I'm glad that I called him. He was very professional and up front with his evaluation. He explained what it would take to update the house and what that would cost. He also told me how much he could sell the house for after renovation. He then made an offer for the property. It was very a very fair price. He also would take care of anything left in the house that we didn't want to keep. That was a great relief. So I would highly recommend Nathan. The whole process was as easy and stress free as could be. I'm glad I made the call to Carolina Home Relief."
