Sell your House with Overwhelming Repairs

Owning a home that needs major repairs can feel impossible. Roof leaks, outdated systems, structural issues, or years of deferred maintenance pile up until the house feels more like a burden than a home. For many owners, the cost to fix everything is simply out of reach.

Listing with an agent means tackling those repairs before buyers will even consider making an offer. That means finding contractors, fronting tens of thousands of dollars, and then waiting months for the work to be done and the house to sell. If you don't have the money or the time, a traditional sale often isn't realistic.

Selling directly to Carolina Home Relief is different. We buy houses as-is, no matter how much work they need. You don't have to repair a thing, clean anything out, or let dozens of strangers walk through. You don't pay commissions or closing costs. Once we agree on a price, the sale is certain, and closing can happen in as little as ten days.

Here's an example. Suppose your house could sell for $200,000 if fully updated. To get it market-ready, you'd likely spend around $50,000 on repairs. After it sells, you'd pay about $12,000 in agent commission (6%) and another $4,000–$6,000 in closing costs. Best case, after months of construction, showings, and waiting, you might net $132,000–$134,000.

If you sold directly to us, we might offer around $115,000. That's less than the repaired-and-listed route, but it avoids fronting $50,000, living in a construction zone, or spending months juggling contractors and buyers. You can walk away with cash in about ten days and put the stress behind you. For many homeowners, that trade-off is the easiest way forward.
