Your options

Two honest ways to sell. We will tell you which one wins.

Most companies only show you the path they profit from. We buy houses and we list houses, so we can put both numbers side by side and let you choose.

Fastest and simplest

Sell to Smart Assets for cash

We buy the house exactly as it sits. No cleaning, no repairs, no open houses, no lender who can fall through at the last minute.

  • Firm cash offer, not an estimate
  • Close in 7 to 30 days, your choice
  • Take what you want, leave the rest
  • No commissions and no closing fees

Highest possible price

List with the Carter Team

If your home shows well and you have the time, listing on the open market usually brings the top price. Our licensed agents handle pricing, marketing and negotiations.

  • Full-service listing on the MLS
  • Professional photos and marketing
  • We negotiate for you
  • Typical close in 45 to 75 days

Not sure yet?

See both numbers first

Run the net-proceeds comparison with your own assumptions, or ask us for both a cash offer and a listing estimate. Zero obligation either way.

  • Line-by-line net proceeds
  • Break-even cash price
  • No pressure, no spam

    Seven days or sixty. Close at a licensed Arizona title company and get paid by wire.

Side by side

Cash sale vs. traditional listing

The same house, two timelines. The listing path can win on price. The cash path wins on certainty, speed and cost.

Any condition, any situation

We buy houses in every situation

If any of these sound familiar, a cash sale is probably worth a conversation.

  • Inherited a house

    Probate, siblings in three states, a house full of belongings. We buy as-is and work with your attorney.

  • Behind on payments

    A fast close can stop a foreclosure clock. We will tell you honestly whether a sale solves it.

  • Tired of being a landlord

    Tenants, repairs, late rent. We buy occupied rentals and handle the transition.

  • Relocating for work

    Close on the date your new job starts, not when a buyer finds financing.

  • Major repairs needed

    Roof, foundation, old plumbing, fire or water damage. Nothing needs fixing before we buy.

  • Divorce or life change

    A clean, quick sale with one point of contact and a date everyone can agree on.

  • Vacant property

    Stop paying taxes, insurance and utilities on a house nobody lives in.

  • Just want it simple

    No showings, no strangers, no negotiating over a broken outlet. One offer, one closing.

Net proceeds

What would you actually keep?

A listing price is not what lands in your account. Put in your numbers and compare the real net from each path.

Percentages are typical Arizona figures and are editable. This is a comparison tool, not an offer. Your written offer comes after we see the house.

Listing with an agent

  • Sale price$425,000
  • Agent commissions (6%)−$25,500
  • Buyer concessions (1.5%)−$6,375
  • Seller closing costs (1%)−$4,250
  • Repairs before listing−$12,000
  • Carrying costs (3 mo)−$7,200
You keep
$369,675

Cash sale to Smart Assets

  • Cash offer$372,000
  • Commissions$0
  • Repairs$0
  • Carrying costs$0
You keep
$372,000

With these numbers, the cash sale leaves you $2,325 more and about 3 months sooner.

A cash offer of $369,675 would net you the same as this listing. Want both real numbers for your house?

FAQ

Questions people ask us

Straight answers. If yours is not here, call and a person will pick up.

Is the offer a real number or a lure?

It is a written, firm cash offer after we have seen the house. We do not send a high estimate and then cut it at the closing table.

How do you decide what to offer?

We look at what comparable homes in your neighborhood have recently sold for, what the house needs, and what it costs us to carry and resell it. We will walk you through the math if you want it.

What does it cost me?

Nothing. No commissions, no service fee, and we cover standard seller closing costs at the title company.

Do I have to clean out the house?

No. Take what you want and leave the rest. Furniture, boxes, the garage full of stuff. We handle it.

Can I stay for a while after closing?

Often yes. Tell us your timeline and we will build it into the agreement.

What if I would net more by listing?

Then we will tell you, and the Carter Team can list it. We make money both ways, so we have no reason to push you into the wrong one.

Are you a brokerage?

Smart Assets is a real estate investment company that buys houses directly. Listing services are provided by licensed agents of the Carter Team.

Where do you buy?

Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Tempe and across the Phoenix East Valley. Outside that area, ask. We often can.
