What "as-is" means when you sell to VIV
You don't repair, paint, clean out or stage the home. VIV factors the condition into the offer up front and explains how, so the number doesn't shrink after an inspection.
- No repair requests after the offer
- Leave behind anything you don't want
- No financing contingency that can fall through
- VIV covers standard closing costs
When an as-is sale makes sense
As-is sales usually fit homes with deferred maintenance, outdated systems, storm or water damage, or a property you simply don't have the time or money to prepare for the open market.
If your home would sell for noticeably more with a traditional listing, VIV will say so. The goal is an honest comparison, not pressure.
How the offer is built
VIV looks at recent comparable sales nearby, the work the house needs, and the holding and closing costs. You get the reasoning in writing along with the offer.
Common questions
- Do I have to clean the house before selling as-is?
- No. You can take what you want and leave the rest. VIV handles the cleanout.
- Will the offer change after the walkthrough?
- The walkthrough happens before the written offer, so the condition is already accounted for. VIV doesn't renegotiate over repairs it already knew about.
