Frequently Asked Questions

You've Got Questions, We Have Answers

At 555 Equity LLC we believe the house selling process should be easier, faster, and more painless for Carrollton / Dallas – Ft. Worth / Nationwide property sellers. If you’re serious about selling your Carrollton / Dallas – Ft. Worth / Nationwide house, duplex, triplex or quadruplex… we’re ready to give a fair all-cash offer. Also, when we buy your house directly from you, we buy as is. You walk away without having to do any repairs. We’ll even clean out the property for you. It’s that easy and convenient. So here’s a quick collection of some of the questions people ask us… along with our answers. If you still have a question, don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) and we’ll be happy to answer it for you..

Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?

Great question. We’re not agents, and we don’t list houses. We are professional home buyers: We buy houses in Carrollton, Dallas, Ft.Worth and Nationwide that meet our purchasing criteria. From there we may repair the house and resell it to another homeowner or keep it as a rental ourselves. Ultimately, we are focused on finding the best solution for your property and if that means we need to partner with a licensed local Realtor, we have those relationships. 

Do you pay fair prices for properties? 
Many of the houses we purchase are below market value (in need of repair, behind on mortgage payments, need to be upgraded, etc…). In our experience, many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a large “windfall” on the property (due to it’s condition or the circumstances of the owner) but rather appreciate that we can offer cash and we close very quickly.  We save you time, effort and there is no expense required on your part to fix up the property nor pay agent commissions. If that’s what you’re looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold fast… let’s see if we can come to a fair win-win price. (Besides, our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give… but it’s good to know what we’re offering!)
 
How do you determine the price to offer on my house?

How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
Great question, and we’re an open book: Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and values of comparable houses sold in the area recently (for multifamily properties, we will also look at building expenses and current rents being collected). We take many pieces of information into consideration… and come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you too.
 
Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
 This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: There are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to us. We’ll make you an offer, and if it’s a fit then we’ll buy your house (and we’ll often pay for the closing costs too!). No hassle. No fees. We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit (we’re taking the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not, once we buy the house from you… the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments… and often with cash in your hand).
 
How are you different from a real estate agent?
Real estate agents list properties and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers if there are any (the average time to sell a property in many markets right now is 6-12 months) and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 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 an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions. But that’s where we’re different: We’re not agents, we’re home buyers. Our company actually buys houses. We don’t list houses. Since we’re actually the one buying the house from you, and we pay with all cash… we can make a decision to buy your house within a couple of days (sometimes the same day). Again, we make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, repair the house, and market it ourselves to find a buyer (which is the hard part in this market).
 
Is there any obligation when I submit my info?
 There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us… and we won’t hassle you, won’t harass you… it’s 100% your decision and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.
