Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Home in Bangor

How long does it typically take to sell a house in Bangor with a traditional agent?

On average, a home in Bangor can sit on the market for about 28 days before receiving an offer, and then the closing process can take another 30-60 days. This timeline can be extended if repairs are needed, or if buyer financing falls through. Our expedited process aims to significantly reduce this timeframe.

What are some common issues I might encounter selling an older home in Bangor?

Older homes in Bangor, especially Ranch-style and Cape Cod homes built between 1950-1980, often have issues like outdated electrical systems, inefficient insulation, and common plumbing problems such as Galvanized steel plumbing. Foundation issues due to freeze-thaw cycles and potential for riverine flooding in certain areas (like AE Zone) can also be concerns. These issues can deter traditional buyers and require costly repairs.

What is the foreclosure process like in Maine?

Maine is a judicial foreclosure state, meaning the process goes through the courts. This typically involves a significant timeline, often taking 9 to 12 months for judicial foreclosure from the initial default notice to the final sale. During this period, homeowners can still explore options like a direct property transaction to avoid the negative impact of foreclosure on their credit.

Do you buy homes in all conditions, including those with code violations?

Yes, we specialize in buying homes in any condition, including those with deferred maintenance, structural issues, or even local code violations. Issues like non-conforming structure ordinances or unpermitted renovations are not a problem for us. You don't need to spend time or money fixing anything; we handle it all.

How is MyFastCashOffer different from a traditional real estate agent like Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage?

Unlike a traditional agent, MyFastCashOffer is a direct cash home buyer. We don't list your house; we buy it directly. This means no commissions, no fees, no showings, no appraisals, and no need for repairs. We provide a fair cash offer and can close on your timeline, offering a much faster and simpler selling experience, saving you potential costs like the $16,800 in agent fees.
