Frequently Asked Questions
In our business, we get a lot of questions. We have answered some of the most common ones below. We are always completely transparent in our process and will answer questions you have about selling your Chicago / Northwest Indiana home.
Q & A
Q: Do you list houses or buy them outright?
A: We buy through a direct cash sale.
Q: How do you determine a property’s value and how much you will be able to offer?
A: We use many factors in determining the value and what we can offer. We will consider the property’s location, the cost and time needed to complete necessary repairs, and the values of comparable houses sold in the immediate vicinity. With a direct cash offer, we will look at the home's potential value, after all of the repairs have been completed. Our ultimate goal is to create a fair, win-win situation. While you might not receive the full retail price from our offer, you will save thousands in fees, commissions, and other costs. Let’s run the numbers to see exactly what it will mean for you.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: Not when you choose a direct sale! This is what makes this decision so popular. You won’t pay a dime in commissions, agent fees, or closing costs. We will be the direct buyer, ultimately saving you time and money. Remember, a fast sale will help you keep thousands of dollars in your pocket.
Q: How are you different from other companies?
A: Our goal is revitalizing communities. We offer fast, direct sales. We are not like the realtor next door. Your typical agent will simply list your house in hopes someone will come along and buy it. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers and then takes a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. The agent’s commission is usually 3-6% of the sale price of your house. So if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000-$6,000 in commissions to your agent. Agents can provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months (the current time it takes for a property to sell via the MLS) and those who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. When you choose a direct sale with KDG you will save on commission, fees, and repair costs. Be mindful that the longer you hold on to a house, the more it will cost you.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: Never. We pride ourselves on creating fair and profitable solutions for our sellers. We want to provide you with information and leave the ball completely in your court. We will never hassle you or put you under any obligation when you tell us about your property! We are ready to help you sell your house now!
Q: Can I stop or avoid foreclosure by selling my house?
A: Yes, in many cases. When you sell your house it stops foreclosure and may help save your credit.
