Accepted Answer

Question 2

How fast can I sell my house to CHR?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

Are there any fees or commissions when selling to you?

Accepted Answer

No. When you sell your house to Carolina Home Relief, you won't pay any real estate agent commissions, and we never charge any hidden fees. Unlike a traditional home sale, you get to keep 100% of our offer. In fact, we even cover all the standard closing costs in most cases, so you won't have to pay for attorney fees or transfer taxes out of pocket. Our earnings come from improving and reselling the house later – not from charging you fees. This means more money in your pocket and a simpler sale with no surprises at closing.

Question 4

How do you determine the offer price for my home?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

Is a cash homebuyer legit? Are these 'we buy houses' companies trustworthy?

Accepted Answer

It's smart to be cautious. Yes, legitimate cash home buyers do exist, but there are also scammers out there. A reputable cash buyer is a real business that actually buys homes to fix up or resell (or hold as rentals), providing a useful service to sellers who want a quick, as-is sale. However, you might have heard of some 'investors' making very low offers or not following through – those are the bad apples. The good news is, as long as you work with an established, local company like CHR, you can safely sell your house for cash and get it done as promised. Always do your homework: check reviews, ask for references, and ensure the buyer has a track record. Check out our customer testimonials and hear directly from homeowners we've helped, including video testimonials from Tony Gonzalez, Ken Dimsdale, and Phyllis Hughes who share their experiences working with us. With Carolina Home Relief, you can rest assured you're dealing with a trustworthy team that values integrity (we're veteran-owned, after all).

Question 6

Is Carolina Home Relief a legitimate, licensed business?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Carolina Home Relief is a fully registered business in North Carolina (CHR is an LLC), and we operate with all the proper legal and ethical standards. We are a local, veteran-owned company with a real office in Fayetteville, NC, and we're also accredited by the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating. This reflects our commitment to honest dealings and excellent customer service. While we are real estate investors (not real estate agents listing your house), we take our reputation seriously. Our team includes experienced professionals, and we have helped many homeowners across the state. Learn more about our founder Nathan Goff and our veteran-owned mission. In short, we are 100% legit – a homebuyer you can trust to do the right thing.

Question 7

Do you buy houses in Greensboro?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we do! We buy houses all across certain parts of North Carolina – not just Fayetteville. If you have a property in Greensboro, NC, or the surrounding areas, we'd love to talk to you. In fact, we serve many regions in the state, including places like Fayetteville, Greensboro, Raleigh, Durham, Charlotte, and more. Our focus is on helping homeowners in our local North Carolina communities, so distance isn't usually a problem as long as the deal makes sense for everyone. Check out our Areas Served page to see all the cities and regions we cover.

Question 8

Do I need to make any repairs or clean before selling?

Accepted Answer

Question 9

What if I'm facing foreclosure or have an inherited property? Can you help with difficult situations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can. We understand that life can throw some tough situations at homeowners. The good news is that we have experience buying houses in all kinds of challenging scenarios. We frequently help people who are behind on mortgage payments or facing foreclosure , as well as those who need to sell fast due to a divorce or job relocation. We also specialize in buying inherited houses (even if they're outdated or you live far away) and properties with problematic tenants . Some situations we commonly help with include: Foreclosure or financial hardship - we can step in quickly; Inherited or probate property - we'll buy it as-is and help with probate paperwork; Divorce or relocation - we make it simple so you can move on; Problem renters or vacant houses - we'll take over the responsibility; Properties with overwhelming repairs or major disrepair - no situation is too difficult. Our aim is to provide relief and a hassle-free sale for you.

Question 10

Can I sell my house if it has a lien or tax debt in North Carolina?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can still sell your house even if it has a lien. Homeowners often think a tax lien or judgment means they can't sell, but that's not true. When you sell to CHR, we simply handle the lien payoff as part of the closing process. In practice, the lien (or any owed back taxes or mortgage balances) will be paid off out of the sales proceeds at closing, and the remaining money goes to you. We have experience purchasing homes with tax liens , mechanic's liens, and other title issues, so we know how to navigate these situations. We'll work with our attorneys to ensure any debts tied to the property are settled so you can sell your home free and clear. You won't have to personally pay off the lien before selling – our offer can cover those obligations and make sure they're resolved through the sale.

Question 11

Will you list my house on the market or do you buy it outright?

Accepted Answer

Question 12

Am I obligated to take your offer if I request one?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Getting a cash offer from us comes with no obligation and no cost whatsoever. We understand that selling your house is a big decision, and you need to do what's best for you. When you reach out to CHR and we evaluate your home, we'll make you a no-pressure offer. From there, it's completely up to you whether you want to accept it or not. We'll never hassle you or force you into a decision – that's a promise. In fact, we encourage homeowners to take their time and consider their options. Even after we make an offer, you can say no (or even ask if we can adjust something – we're open to discussion). It's 100% free for us to come out, look at the house, and make an offer – no strings attached. The bottom line: you have nothing to lose by seeing what we can offer.

Question 13

What if I need to stay in my house after closing?

Accepted Answer

We know that sometimes you might sell the house but aren't ready to move immediately – and that's okay. In many cases, we can work out a flexible move-out plan to accommodate your needs. For example, if you need a few extra days or weeks after closing to arrange your move, we can often allow that. We've even arranged 'rent-back' agreements where the seller stays in the home for a short period after we buy it, essentially renting it from us until they're ready to leave. The specifics depend on your situation, but we do our best to be helpful. Our team will discuss this with you upfront. The key is communication – let us know what you need, and we'll try to find a solution that works for both of us. Whether you need to stay for a couple weeks to pack, or a few months until your next home is ready, talk to us.

Question 14

How does selling to CHR compare to listing with a real estate agent?

Accepted Answer

Question 15

How can I sell my house without an agent in North Carolina?

Accepted Answer

Question 16

Do cash buyers pay closing costs?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, yes – a reputable cash home buyer will cover the typical closing costs on your behalf. When you sell to us, you won't have to pay any standard real estate closing fees or agent commissions. We know those extra costs can add up, so we take care of attorney fees, title charges, and transfer taxes that are part of the closing. Our goal is for the offer we present you to be the amount you actually receive at closing, without surprise deductions. (Of course, any mortgage payoff or other obligations on the property would be handled from the sale proceeds, but we'll walk you through that.) Covering sellers' closing costs is part of our hassle-free service – it means more cash in your pocket and a simpler, stress-free sale for you. Our veteran-owned company believes in transparency, so you can rest assured there are no hidden fees when you work with us.

Question 17

I'm facing foreclosure or behind on mortgage payments – can you still buy my house?

Accepted Answer

Question 18

Can I sell a house I inherited or one that's in probate?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can – we frequently help families sell inherited houses, even if the property is going through probate. We understand how tough it is dealing with a loss of a loved one, and our goal is to make the home sale quick and compassionate in these cases. In North Carolina, if the estate is currently in probate, the sale might require approval from the probate court or the estate's executor. Usually, the executor (personal representative) has the authority to sell estate property. We have worked with estate attorneys and probate courts before, so we'll handle the paperwork to keep everything compliant with NC law. You can sell a house in probate – it just takes a bit of coordination. Often, selling the home is actually part of settling the estate. If you've inherited a property and are dealing with probate, we can help you navigate the process and turn that inherited house into cash with as little stress as possible.

Question 19

Can I sell my house during a divorce?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you're legally allowed to sell your house during a divorce – and many couples choose to do so – but it's important that both spouses agree to the sale terms. In North Carolina, if the home is jointly owned by you and your spouse, you will both need to sign the sale documents. We have helped homeowners in the midst of a divorce by purchasing the house quickly, which often provides a clean, fast resolution so both parties can move forward. We approach these situations with sensitivity and professionalism. Often, selling the house for cash is the simplest solution when neither party can keep it, or when you need to pay off shared debts. As a neutral cash buyer, we make the process straightforward so you both can get your equity out and avoid further conflict. If you're in this situation, feel free to contact us – we'll act with care and work out a solution that respects everyone's needs.

Question 20

What if my house has liens or unpaid taxes – can I still sell it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can still sell a property that has liens, judgments, or back taxes owed – these issues are actually more common than you'd think, and we deal with them frequently. When we buy a house, we conduct a title search and find any outstanding liens (such as tax liens , mechanics' liens, HOA liens, etc.) or unpaid property taxes. Rather than those blocking the sale, they simply get paid off as part of the closing process. In practical terms, the closing attorney will use the sale proceeds to pay off all liens and taxes first, and then you receive whatever is left over. We handle all the coordination with lien holders and tax offices, so you don't have to worry about navigating that paperwork yourself. This is one of the major benefits of selling to an experienced cash buyer – we know how to clear title issues efficiently.
