Can we negotiate with the investors?

How do you get paid? What do you charge for an offer?
Your fee for selling your home through SCHomeOffers is no different than the fee we charge sellers who use our SCHomeOffers Listings process: 6% of the final purchase price, plus $200. An interested investor could prospectively request an additional fee, which will be disclosed upfront.
-
Are these offers coming from wholesalers and assigned prior to closing?
Contracts submitted by an affiliated investor are assignable to other purchasers, provided the assigned price is not higher than the price stated in your signed contract. We will never make additional profit by selling our contract to a higher bidder, but for the purpose of retaining capital for the purchase of additional homes, our affiliated investors may find it advantageous to have an alternative investor make the investment. Contracts submitted by non-affiliated investors are not assignable.
