I’ve learned that a house can be condemned for a variety of reasons.
Extensive structural damage from hurricanes can make the living environment unsafe.
Water damage to walls, floors, ceilings and furniture can depreciate property value and lead to health concerns. The growth of black mold can cause musty odors as well as health problems. Termites can live in the walls unnoticed for years, steadily escalating structural damage. Any home without basic utilities, such as running water and electricity, can be condemned. Properties with code violations are also at risk. From hoarder homes to those infested with pests, a condemned property is a problem. Homes in Jacksonville, Florida, are exposed to weather extremes, high humidity, insects, rodents, moisture and more. There is the potential for flooding, falling branches and electrical fires. In many cases, making the necessary repairs is a bigger investment than the homeowner is prepared to make. A house in poor condition can’t pass a home inspection. It won’t qualify for insurance or a bank loan. So what do you do with it? For homeowners looking for an alternative to a conventional sale, a cash home buyer is a straightforward solution. The process begins by way of either a phone call or a simple online contact form. Once the homeowner supplies some basic information pertaining to the property, the cash home buyer provides an offer. Typically, an offer is supplied within twenty-four hours. The more reputable cash home buyers make offers with no obligation, pressure or hidden fees. They don’t sell leads or hassle the homeowner. If the offer is accepted, the process moves forward rapidly. Cash home buyers have the resources, connections and experience to expedite closing.
