Debra had owned this Kansas City rental property for years, but eventually, she reached the point where being a landlord just wasn’t something she wanted to deal with anymore.
She was ready to sell, but she also didn’t want to go through the hassle of fixing up the house, getting it ready for the market, and dealing with everything that comes with a traditional sale.
There was also another important piece to the puzzle: a family member had been living in the home, so there were years of belongings inside including family heirlooms Debra wanted to make sure she had time to go through.
She wanted a simple way to sell the property as-is, on a timeline that worked for her, and that’s where we were able to help.
Selling a Kansas City Rental Property As-Is
Debra didn’t need to make repairs. She didn’t need to clean the property from top to bottom. And she didn’t have to rush through years of family belongings just to meet our schedule. There was no pressure to empty the entire house before we purchased it.
Debra could take the things that mattered to her and her family and leave behind the things she didn’t want.
She Didn’t Have to Repair the House Before Selling
Debra also didn’t have to spend money fixing up the property for us.
That’s one of the biggest reasons homeowners choose to sell directly to Liberty Road Homes.
That can mean skipping:
- Repairs and renovations
- Painting
- Deep cleaning
- Junk removal
- Landscaping
- Contractor appointments
- Open houses
- Buyer showings
Instead of spending her time and money fixing the property for the next owner, she was able to sell it in its current condition and let us take it from there.
We Worked Around Debra’s Timeline
Selling a house isn’t always just about price.
Sometimes timing matters just as much.
Debra needed enough time to take care of what she wanted to take care of before saying goodbye to a property that had been part of her family for years.
So we worked around her schedule.
There wasn’t a rush to get the property cleaned out by a certain weekend or have everything perfect for showings.
We agreed on a timeline that worked for everyone and gave Debra the flexibility she needed.
That’s something we try to do with every homeowner we work with.
Can You Really Sell a House Without Cleaning Everything Out?
In many cases, yes.
This is something Kansas City homeowners ask us about all the time.
Maybe you’ve inherited your parents’ house and it still contains decades of belongings.
Maybe you’re dealing with a rental property after a tenant moved out.
Maybe you’re helping an elderly family member downsize.
Or maybe you’ve lived in the same house for 30 years and the thought of cleaning out every closet, basement, garage and storage room sounds exhausting.
When Liberty Road Homes buys a property, we’re often able to let the seller simply:
Take what you want. Leave what you don’t.
We’ll deal with what’s left after closing.
For some sellers, that alone removes a huge amount of stress from the process.
Do You Have a Rental Property You’re Just Done With?
Debra’s situation isn’t unusual.
Being a landlord can make sense for years but it gets to a point where it’s exhausting and you are done.
Maybe you’re tired of dealing with tenants.
Maybe the property needs more repairs than you want to make.
Maybe you’ve inherited a rental you never wanted in the first place.
Or maybe you’ve owned the property for years, built equity, and you’re simply ready to turn the page.
You don’t necessarily have to renovate the property and list it with a real estate agent.
Selling a rental property off market and as-is is another option we can help with.
