Frequently asked questions

What's the fastest way to sell my house in Delaware?

A cash sale to a direct buyer, as soon as about 10 days when title is clear.

Which option gets me the most money?

It depends on the house. With equity and only moderate repairs needed, Fix & List can net more than a cash sale. On a free-and-clear house where you don't need all the cash now, seller financing can bring a higher total price. For houses needing major work, a cash offer can be close to listing once repairs, commission, and time are counted. We'll run the numbers for yours.

Can I compare more than one option for my house?

Yes. Tell us about the property and we'll show every option that fits, with numbers for each.

What if I'm behind on my mortgage?

Call a HUD-approved housing counselor (800-569-4287) or DSHA's counselor line (888-363-8808) first. If a foreclosure has been filed, Delaware's free mediation program is (800) 220-5424. See our foreclosure guide.
