Life is hard.

At FasterHouse, we make sure selling your home isn’t. Selling you home is a simple 4-step process.

FasterHouse Helps Home Owners Sell Fast and Avoid Foreclosure!

Foreclosures are an unfortunate reality many home owners. Life happens. Unforeseen circumstances happen. When the unexpected happens, FasterHouse can help. We can help you to navigate a seemingly impossible situation.

Why do foreclosures happen?

Life events are the most common cause of foreclosure.

Medical issues can be especially destructive financially because they can hit you in two ways.

If a serious medical condition is affecting you or a loved one, you may need to take time off of work, or stop working altogether.

Additionally, the cost of medical bills – even if you have insurance – can be astronomical.

So not only can medical problems keep you from being able to make the income you would normally expect to make, it can also drain your existing financial reserves as well. This can make it extremely difficult to pay for your monthly mortgage payments.

Divorce is another type of life event that can be destructive financially in multiple ways.

When a divorce occurs, finances are generally split between the parties, and that may leave one party unable to pay for the home even if they have been awarded it by the courts.

Additionally, the cost of divorce is quite high, so if you are experiencing a divorce you may find yourself less capable of paying your home payments due to the legal fees.

Losing a job speaks for itself in relation to a foreclosure.

The job market has been challenging for certain industries ever since the late 2000s, the coronavirus pandemic, and historical rates of inflation more recently.

While some people are able to find a job rather quickly after losing theirs, others are left without a job for several months at a time, especially in industries who have seen their demand decrease due to technology or shifting consumer preferences.

These people may find themselves needing to take a job that pays less simply to secure an income to cover necessities, and this may compromise their ability to afford their home.

Death in your family may present some of the same challenges as medical issues – time away from work, lost income, and the addition of unforeseen expenses.

How fast can I sell my home as-is for cash to avoid foreclosure?

The process of an as-is sale moves quickly compared to a typical foreclosure.

Rather than waiting months for the bank to work through a foreclosure process, you can sell your home as-is to a cash home buyer in a fraction of the time. 

A cash buyer will make an offer within just a few days of visiting the home.  Compare this to a foreclosure that takes an average of 12-14 months. Some foreclosures can take up to 3 years! The stress endured in this process is nothing short of the time spent.

FasterHouse can buy your home as-is for cash and ultimately shorten your home selling timeframe and remove a great deal of stress in the process.

There is an alternative to foreclosure.

Foreclosures happen every day to people from all walks of life, but it is important to recognize that alternatives exist. 

One alternative is an as-is sale. With an as-is sale, you are able to sell your home for cash. 

You can do so without making additional investments in the home, such as paying for repairs, paying for supplies to stage the home, or paying costly real estate agent fees.

FasterHouse’s Reputation is Built on Trust and Fair Offers.

FasterHouse was great to work with. They made everything so easy and I felt very comfortable. My agent Tyson P. was always there to help and answer any questions I had. Lori K. provided great communication. Overall the process was quick and professional. The responsiveness is incredible, I had to give another star. Way to stay on top of things Tammy W.

Using faster house was a godsend that came into our life at a time when we we're selling our home. My husband and I have very demanding schedules didn't have the time, energy or effort to have several showings and people running in and out of the house. For what could be months on end. When they say "Close on your time" they truly mean it! The staff was very receptive to any questions. We had Mike was great, jumped on any suggestions. They really stayed in communication with us. The whole entire team made closing a breeze. The communication was spot on, and they definitely seem to care about the client. -The Gross family.

My 90 year old father needed to sell his home that he had been in for over 50 years when he entered a Senior Living facility. From start to finish the process was easy and smooth. The price paid for the home was fair considering he avoided making home repairs, realtor commissions, showings, inspections, junk removal costs, months of bills, etc. I highly recommend this company!! Very professional and friendly. All of my questions were addressed and answered throughout the process.

Compared Faster House with two other agencies. I did not want to go through the hassle of the normal realtor, commission, etc. After I did all the math, the price I got for the house was very similar to what I would received after fixing up my house, paying commission, etc., etc.. process was very good, and the people were extremely pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend them.

The process of selling the home of my father who recently passed seemed daunting to say the least. We didn't have the time, money or energy to do the needed updates to place it on the market ourselves. So we entered into the 'As Is' market to get the house sold. And I'll be honest, I was preparing for a bunch of sleazy sales people with low ball offers Initially, that's exactly what we got from the first two companies that we contacted. I knew the comps in the area and had made estimated deductions based on the upgrades it needed. SO I had a pretty good sense of what a fair offer should be. On our third call, Dennis with FasterHouse came out. We chatted for a bit and he did a walk through of the house. We spent another 10 minutes chatting. He was very personable, knowledgeable and courteous. He made an effort to provide condolences for my father's passing and was very respectful to the sensitive nature of the moment. The next day I was sent an offer that was beyond fair. Turns out, we had to enter into probate. And this is a long process in the courts. It took over 60 days to get the needed paperwork to move forward with the sale. Dennis stuck with us the entire time. He even provided recommendations for legal assistance for the probate. He would reach out from time to time to check on how my family was doing with the loss and see if we needed anything. It always felt genuine. Today we closed!!! In a space riddled with shady characters, Fasterhouse, and especially Dennis, stands out with unwavering integrity. I can't recommend these guys enough. Don't even waste time like I did calling anyone else...this is who you want to work with. Call them now and ask for Dennis.

Fine company to deal and fair price negotiation, definitely a no hassle situation, they took care of everything on their end all i needed to do was show up to closing.

I contacted FasterHouse when my brother was in hospice in St. Louis, MO. His house was very challenging, to put it mildly, and I found FasterHouse online. Jake Hausemann and the team were super to work with from the get go. Jake gave me a good offer on my brother's house and continued to follow up with me while we waited to receive approval from the probate court to administrate my brother's estate. They even mowed the grass for us. The FasterHouse team set up the closing and nothing could have been easier. If you are in St. Louis and are called upon to administrate an estate, you will be inundated by calls from many people and companies offering to buy your house. Save the headaches and call FasterHouse first!

Jake the person that I worked with from Fasterhouse was great at getting the initial offer for our house, other offers came in around the same offer as Fasterhouse. Jake was able to get his offer raised to eventually win the battle and win the house. Thanks Jake. The sale of the house was as smooth as silk, couldn't expect better results. Thanks, Fasterhouse and congratulations on your purchase of our home.

FasterHouse saved me! I needed to settle my mother's estate when she passed this year. I live and work in another state. I had no idea how I was going to sell her house. I was contacted by Jake Hausmann of FasterHouse who walked me through their entire process, gave me a fair offer, was patient, very knowledgeable, empathetic and a total professional. The entire transaction was seamless, stress-free and happened, start to close within a couple of months. I can't say enough good things about Jake, Lori, Tammy and the rest of the FasterHouse team. I did my homework and you'll not find a higher rated or more ethical company than FasterHouse. If Google offered a 10 star rating, they would get an easy 10 from me. I am forever grateful.
