It takes a lot of work to sell a house and just the thought of all the preparation to get a house ready for sale may be too much. It is simple easier to try selling a house as is. However, understanding what that means can be quite different to different people.
The seller may have one understanding of the term and the buyer may have another entirely different point of view. The basic understanding of the term is the buyer understands and agrees to purchase the house without any repairs or changes.
It should not be expected that the seller is going to do anything to the house. It is not until all have agreed that the terms are acceptable can they continue with the sale of the home. People decide to sell their house this way because of a few things.
Perhaps, they are an elderly couple; they may not want to take on the burden of fixing anything. Investors many times have no idea what the conditions of a home may be. There interest is primarily that of investing for profit.
Foreclosures be the primary reason that many banks have a property, and they do not want to continue to carry them on their books. So, they put them on the market to sell as quickly as possible. Their main goal is to get as money as they can from these properties.
Perhaps, they have inherited the property from a relative, and they have no need of it. If they live out of state or the country it would be better just to sell. It is important that the seller be aware that they still have to read the contract before they sign it. The are always clauses in them that specify certain things.
Sellers must pay attention to the details of the contract because each one has certain clauses in them that might make them responsible for certain repairs. These need to be removed or they become responsible, and the buyer could make them repairs.
Any home that is put on the market and sold as is usually change the asking price. This way the buyer can see that they are responsibility for the repairs on the home.
To make sure that the buyer is clear on the matter it is wise for the seller to put a statement somewhere in the contract that tell the buyer that they are taking the property as is, and that they are responsible for all repairs. This relieves the seller of all liability.
The seller can further provide the buyer with estimates of any particular repairs. This way the buyer make their decision based fully being aware of the condition of the property they are interested in buying.
It keeps the person who put the it on the market free from responsibility. If it is written down and everyone can read it there is less confusion. No one is left in the dark.
In the end what may have started out as a problematic or difficult situation can turn well. No one has to lose sleep over it. If all the parties involved are moving towards the same goal selling a house as is will be a rewarding experience for all.
