Selling Your House Is As Easy As 1-2-3

We follow the same simple steps whether you are behind on payments, facing foreclosure, dealing with an inherited property, tired of tenants, or just want a quick, no-drama sale.

Step 1 – Tell Us About Your NC Property

Reach out by phone or through our short form and tell us about the house you want to sell in North Carolina. We buy pretty houses, ugly houses, rentals, inherited homes, and everything in between. The more details you share, the better we can tailor your cash offer.

Step 2 – We Review Repairs & Local NC Comps

We look at recent comparable sales in your part of North Carolina and estimate any repairs the property may need. Then we calculate a fair as-is cash offer for your home based on real numbers, not how desperate you are.

Step 3 – You Pick The Closing Date & Get Paid

If the offer works for you, we sign a simple agreement and you choose the closing date. We work with a local closing attorney or title company and you get paid by wire or cashier’s check, often in as little as 7–30 days.

How We Calculate Your Cash Offer

Simple, transparent math, no low-ball games or guessing what we will pay.

Many “We Buy Houses” companies in North Carolina try to throw out the lowest number they think they can get away with. That does not work long-term. We use a straightforward formula based on your home’s after-repair value, the cost to fix it, and a modest profit so we can stay in business and keep helping NC homeowners.

Your Cash Offer Formula

Your Cash Offer =
After Repair Value (ARV)
  – Cost of Repairs (COR)
  – Our Selling Costs
  – Our Minimum Profit

  • After Repair Value (ARV): What your house should sell for on the open market once it is fully fixed up and updated.
  • Cost of Repairs: What it will cost us to repair, update, and make the home retail-ready.
  • Selling Costs: Agent commissions, closing costs, taxes, utilities, insurance, and holding costs when we resell.
  • Profit: A reasonable profit so we can keep buying houses and serving more North Carolina sellers.
Real-World Example

Sample Cash Offer In North Carolina

Imagine your home, after it is fully updated, would be worth about $300,000 on the retail market in NC. It currently needs around $40,000 in repairs and updates to reach that value.

After Repair Value (ARV)$300,000
Estimated Repairs & Updates– $40,000
Our Future Selling Costs– $30,000
Our Minimum Profit– $30,000
Estimated Cash Offer To You$200,000

Every house is different, but we use this same transparent framework on each property we buy in North Carolina so you can easily compare our offer to listing with an agent or keeping the property.

Another Example: Outdated Condo With Issues

A recent seller inherited a condo in a golf course community. It was outdated, infested with bugs, and needed new flooring, paint, fixtures, and a modern kitchen package.

  • After Repair Value: ≈ $100,000
  • Repairs: ≈ $20,000
  • Selling Costs: ≈ $10,000
  • Our Profit: ≈ $23,000
  • ≈ $47,000 Cash Offer

The seller avoided a looming HOA issue, skipped the repairs, and closed on their schedule. Results vary, but the math stays consistent.

What Happens After You Accept Our Cash Offer

Because we buy with our own cash, there are no bank approvals slowing things down.

Step 1 – We Open Escrow & Order Title

Usually 1–2 business days after you sign, we send the agreement to our closing attorney or title company. They open escrow, order a title search, and begin gathering payoff information if you have a mortgage or any liens.

Step 2 – Inspection & Final Approval

Over the next 7–14 business days, our team completes a quick walk-through or inspection to confirm our repair estimates. At the same time, the attorney or title company clears any title issues so we can close cleanly.

Step 3 – You Choose Your Closing Date

Once everything is clear, we schedule the closing date that works best for you. You sign your documents, the funds are sent, and you walk away with cash for your North Carolina house, often in 7–30 days total.

Need to close faster or on a very specific date. In many cases we can adjust the timeline to match your move-out or next purchase. Just let us know what you need.

Why Velosell’s Cash Offer Often Beats A Traditional Listing

When you compare our offer to listing with an agent in North Carolina, remember to factor in repairs, commissions, closing costs, holding time, and the stress of showings.

We focus on the net cash in your pocket, not just a big headline number. When you list with an agent, you will usually pay for repairs or updates, cleaning, commissions, closing costs, and months of utilities, taxes, and insurance while you wait for the right buyer.

  • No repairs, inspections, or contractors to manage.
  • No 6% agent commissions or hidden junk fees.
  • No cleaning, staging, or back-to-back showings.
  • No worrying if the buyer’s loan will fall through.
  • You pick the closing date that works for your move.
  • Clear, written offers you can easily compare.
  • Local North Carolina cash home buyers you can reach by phone.
