How to Sell Your Richmond Home When You Have More Important (and Fun!) Things to Do

“In the past, I felt such pressure navigating the traditional process. With Opendoor, I felt supported, guided, and encouraged each step of the way.”

With fall activities in full swing and the holiday season on the horizon, adding another to-do to your list right now can be overwhelming – especially if that to-do includes listing and selling your home. 

When Virginia resident Georgie decided to sell her home, she dreaded the hassle of making repairs, arranging showings and trying to coordinate her closing timelines. “I was overwhelmed by the conflicting expert advice I received. Should I update the kitchen? Refresh the carpet, or remove it  altogether? Everyone had an  opinion on how to get a competitive offer on my home,” she recalled. “So when a friend gave me an Opendoor mailer, I was inspired to do my research about the company. I couldn’t have dreamed selling my home could be this easy or stress-free.”

Whether you’re looking to sell your current Richmond-area home to buy a forever home, move closer to school, or simply need more space for your growing family, here are three ways Opendoor can help:

1. Get a free competitive offer on your home (in minutes!)

It’s hard to find the time to prep and list your home while juggling your day job along with school pick-ups, baseball practice and dance recitals. You can get a quote in just a few minutes at any time, at the tap of a button. With Opendoor, you can skip the stress of making updates to your home, not to mention having to clean up and get the family out before showings.

To get a free quote on your home, visit Opendoor.com, type in your address, and provide some details about your home. It takes just a few minutes. From there, Opendoor will send you an initial estimate.

“There’s no reason why this process shouldn’t always be done digitally!”

2. Save time and stress with self-guided home walkthroughs

While home inspections are a critical part of the selling process, they’re often seen as a lengthy and daunting task. These assessments can take hours and often require the buyer and an inspector to be present. This can be a particularly stressful challenge when coordinating family schedules.

Opendoor has completely simplified the process with self-guided home walkthroughs. While the kids are finishing their breakfast, you can take videos and photos using a smartphone, computer or camera, highlighting your home’s unique features. You can do this digital assessment at your convenience in just a few minutes.

3. Make it easy to move with your family

Rather than worrying about scheduling all moving timelines and shuttling your family between houses, selling to Opendoor gives you a competitive free offer so that you can move quickly, easily and with certainty. You control when you move and have the opportunity to choose, or even change, your closing date. 

Like Georgie, 82 percent of sellers would prefer to use one company for all real estate transactions. If you’re looking to sell your home in Richmond, get started by requesting a free offer today at Opendoor.com.
