Considering a cash offer? Compare the whole picture.

What matters beyond the offer price?

Ask what the buyer must verify, whether the price can change, who pays closing costs, and what happens if either party cannot complete the sale. A cash offer is not automatically a guaranteed closing or the highest net return.

• Request evidence that the buyer can fund the purchase.
• Review inspection, cancellation, and other contract conditions.
• Ask about assignment rights and who is expected to close.
• Compare estimated proceeds after mortgage payoff and expenses.
• Confirm the proposed closing date and possession arrangements.

Cash and as-is describe different things

Cash describes how a purchase is funded. As-is describes the proposed property condition at sale. A buyer may offer cash for an as-is home, but you can also explore listing in current condition.
