Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Here are some FAQs about home buying and more.
How do I determine the right price for my home?
We use market data, recent sales, and property insights to ensure your home is priced competitively for maximum value—without overpricing and scaring off buyers.
How long will it take to sell my home?
The timeline depends on market conditions, but with our proven marketing strategies and pre-qualified buyers, many of our listings sell within 90 days or less. If not, we compensate you through our Guaranteed Sale Timeline.
What if my home doesn’t sell?
We are committed to getting your home sold at the best price possible. If we don’t sell within the agreed timeframe, we pay you for each week of delay. Plus, you always have the option to cancel your listing at any time, risk-free.
Do I need to make repairs before selling?
Not necessarily! We help you evaluate whether making repairs will increase your home’s marketability and value. If you prefer to sell as-is, we also have buyers looking for homes in any condition.
How does DEI Realty attract serious buyers?
We don’t just rely on MLS listings—we have a network of pre-approved buyers, targeted marketing campaigns, and off-market listing exposure, ensuring your home reaches the right audience quickly.
Can I sell my home while still living in it?
Yes! Many sellers live in their homes while they’re on the market. We work with you to schedule showings at convenient times and ensure minimal disruption to your daily life.
How does the 8 Performance Guarantee benefit me as a homebuyer?
Our guarantees ensure a transparent, stress-free home-buying experience by protecting you from delays, mispricing, poor communication, and unqualified sellers. If we don’t meet our commitments, we compensate you.
What happens if DEI Realty doesn’t meet a guarantee?
We stand by our commitments. If we fail to deliver on any of our guarantees—such as communication, pricing, or qualified service—we will compensate you according to the guarantee terms.
Can I really cancel my agreement at any time?
Yes! With our No-Risk, No-Obligation Guarantee, you can walk away at any time before purchasing—no penalties, no fees. We’re confident in our service, and we want you to be too.
