Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers!
It’s completely natural to have questions when considering selling your home. We’ve gathered some of the most common inquiries we receive, along with our answers. If your question isn’t covered here, please feel free to reach out to us anytime. We’re always happy to assist you!
Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: That’s a fantastic question. Unlike real estate agents, we don’t list houses on the MLS. At MPD HOME BUYERS, we are professional home buyers. We purchase houses in that meet our buying criteria directly from homeowners. We don’t rely on bank financing, so you don’t have to worry about potential delays or our ability to close the deal. Once we buy a house, we might repair and renovate it before reselling it to a new homeowner, or we might keep it as a rental property. This direct buying process ensures a quick and hassle-free transaction for you.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: This is another excellent question. Real estate agents work by listing properties and hoping to find buyers. They show the properties to interested parties, and if a sale happens, they take a commission from the sale price. Currently, the average time to sell a house in many markets is about 4-6 months. Agents typically charge a commission fee of 3-6% of the sale price. For example, if your house sells for $100,000, you might pay between $3,000 and $6,000 in commissions to the agent.
Real estate agents can provide valuable services for those who are not in a rush to sell and don’t mind paying commission fees. However, we operate differently. As home buyers, we purchase your house directly from you. We make all-cash offers, which means we can decide to buy your house in a matter of days, sometimes even the same day you contact us. This direct approach eliminates the need for a lengthy listing process and saves you the commission fees associated with agents.
We take on the financial risk of buying the house with our own money, make any necessary repairs, and then market the property ourselves to find a new buyer. This process not only speeds up the transaction but also offers you a more straightforward, stress-free experience.

DOWNLOAD our free guide that walks you through the Pros and Cons (plus the cost and timeline) of selling your house to a real estate investor versus the pros, cons, and costs of the other two alternatives – listing with an agent or selling it yourself.
Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: Great question, and we’re an open book. Our process is very straightforward. We look at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and the value of comparable houses sold in the area recently. Taking the many pieces of information into consideration, we come up with a fair price that works for us and works for you, too.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: there are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house directly to us compared to listing fees, where up to 6% comes out of your pocket. We’ll make you an offer and, if it’s a fit, then we’ll buy your house with no hassles and no fees. We’ll often pay for the closing costs, too! We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house and sell it for a profit. We’re taking the risks here on whether we can sell it for a profit or not. Once we buy the house from you, the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments, as well as cash in your hand.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Once you tell us a bit about your property, we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and make you an all-cash offer that’s fair for you and fair for us. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us. We’ll let you decide what’s right for you.
