frequently asked questions About
Selling Your House in Georgia

What kinds of homes do you buy in Georgia?

We buy single-family homes, townhomes, and multifamily properties as-is throughout Georgia, including Alpharetta, Roswell, Marietta, Cumming, Athens, and surrounding communities. Whether the house is in great shape or hasn’t been updated in decades, we are interested. We typically purchase homes within about three hours of Metro Atlanta and under $500,000.

Sometimes listing is the best option, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. A cash sale is for sellers who want convenience and certainty: no repairs, no cleaning, no financing delays, and no strangers walking through your house. You can pick the day you want to close, and you can also pick the day you want to move out.

If you need to sell your house fast in Georgia, working with a cash buyer can help you avoid repairs, showings, and lengthy closing timelines. Phillips Brothers Real Estate provides fair cash offers and allows you to choose a closing date that works best for your situation.

You’d be surprised at how many companies can’t answer this question honestly. We, Mark and Jonathan, are the direct buyers. We purchase the home directly and make the decisions. We do not assign contracts or involve third-party buyers. You can learn more about our team and company history on our About Us Page.

We are a local business, and we make money by buying homes, improving them as needed, and then reselling them, usually to first-time home buyers. We take on the risk of repair surprises, holding costs, and market changes.

Yes, you certainly can! It is up to the homeowner to decide what level of risk they are comfortable with. Renovations can get out of hand quickly, can end up costing a lot more than budgeted for, and houses sometimes sit for months before they ultimately sell. Because we are buying so many, we can afford to take risks that a typical homeowner usually can’t or doesn’t want to take. 

Everything is in writing in clear terms. We will put down a strong earnest money deposit, and if we were to default under the contract terms, you keep that deposit. You can even request the amount of the deposit!

Yes! You can cancel at any time and for any reason. Even if it is the day before closing. We never want you to feel “trapped” or forced into a deal. If you change your mind, we shake hands and part as friends

First, we gather basic details. Then we review the property and make an offer. If we’re close, we schedule a short walkthrough (about 30 minutes). If everything checks out, we send a simple contract and you choose the closing date.

Sometimes. If major issues come up that weren’t known up front, the offer may change. If that happens, you can always walk away at any time

Yes! No high-pressure sales tactics here. If you have a number in mind, we’ll try to get as close as possible to it. We want to reach a deal that is fair for both sides.

If you receive a higher offer, we’ll try to match it. If we can’t, we’ll tell you directly and encourage you to take the better option.

No! We can give you an initial offer without a contract. A contract only comes after you’ve reviewed the terms and want to move forward. If you’re ready to get started, simply contact us and we’ll review your property information.

Not at all. Take the items you want to keep and leave the rest. We will take anything, and I mean anything. We buy homes as-is.

Yes, but it is quick and simple. We do a short walkthrough to confirm condition and major repairs. We can schedule it at a time that is convenient for you.

Just once for the walkthrough, and that’s it!
