How Your Offer is Calculated

You might be wondering, "How do you determine my offer?" We use a straightforward and fair process based on real numbers. No guesswork, no lowball offers.

This Is How We Calculate Our Cash Offers:

1

We Determine Your Home’s Market Value

Market Value: We look at what similar homes in your area have sold for recently. This gives us an idea of what your home would be worth in perfect condition (After Repair Value or ARV).

2

We Calculate The Cost of Repairs

Repair Costs: If your home needs repairs, we estimate how much it would cost to bring it up to market standards.

3

We Determine Our Selling Costs

Selling Costs: Since we’re taking on the responsibility of buying, fixing, and selling the home, we factor in things like holding costs, property taxes, and closing fees that we’ll cover.

4

We Take Out Our Profits

A Fair Profit Margin: Like any business, we need to make a small profit to keep running, but our goal is to make sure you walk away with a fair deal.

No hidden fees. No surprises. Just a fair, straightforward offer.

When You'll Hear Back From Us

We respect your time, and we don't make you wait. Here's what to expect after you reach out.

Within 1 Hour: Kitty responds personally

Whether you call, fill out the form, or text us, you hear from Kitty directly, usually within the hour during business hours. No call center, no waiting on hold.

Within 24 Hours: Your written cash offer

After we do one quick walkthrough of your home, you have a written cash offer in hand within 24 hours. No surprises, no hidden conditions.

On Your Timeline: When to accept

There is no expiration date pressure. Take a few hours, a few days, or a few weeks to think it over. If you say no, no hard feelings.

What Happens After You Accept the Offer

Once we agree to an offer, our goal is to ensure a smooth, stress-free closing. Here’s what happens next:

Step 1: Sign the Agreement

  • After you accept our offer, we’ll draft and review the standard Florida AS-IS contract with you.
  • You can sign electronically (via email) or in person.
  • Our offer is completely free with no obligation to accept.

Step 2: Title & Escrow Process

This process usually takes about 7-14 days, but it can be faster if needed.

Step 3: Final Walkthrough & Closing

  • No need to make repairs, clean, or remove unwanted items, we buy as-is.
  • On the scheduled closing date, you’ll sign the final paperwork.
  • The title company will wire your funds directly into your bank account or provide a cashier’s check.

Once you accept the offer, we handle all the details, making it easy and stress-free as possible!

Your Closing Timeline, Step by Step

Initial Call & Property Info Same Day
Offer Presented Within 24 Hours
Offer Accepted & Agreement Signed Within 1-2 Days
Title & Escrow Process 7-14 Days
Closing & Payment Same Day as Closing

✅ Your timeline, your choice — Whether you need to close in a couple of weeks or a couple of months, you set the date.

✅ Typical closing — Most sellers close 2 to 4 weeks after accepting the offer, mostly because title clearance takes 7 to 14 days.

✅ Flexible by design — If life changes and you need to push the date, we adjust. No penalties, no pressure.

Are There Any Costs Involved?

Common fears about selling for cash: hidden fees, surprise commissions, unexpected costs at closing. We hear you. The truth is, there are zero costs to you when you sell to American Hero Properties. The number on your written cash offer is the exact number that lands in your account at closing.

Here's what you would typically pay selling a Florida home the traditional way:

- Real Estate Agent Commission: 5-6% (about $15,000 to $30,000 on a $300,000 home)
- Closing Costs: 1-3% (paid out of seller proceeds)
- Repairs Before Listing: $5,000 to $30,000+ depending on condition
- Staging and Marketing: $1,000 to $5,000+
- Inspection Negotiations After Listing: Often thousands more in price reductions

None of that comes out of your pocket when you sell to American Hero Properties. We cover the closing costs, we don't charge a commission, and we buy your home in its current condition.
