You have a few choices when selling your damaged house in Kansas City.

The Easy Way:

• Contact us for an offer.
• We’ll visit your property and make a cash offer.
• If you accept, we’ll sign the sales contract and open escrow.
• When escrow is complete, we’ll all sign the closing documents, and you’ll have your cash.

Easy and quick! We’ll even pay your closing costs, and you can leave unwanted things behind for us to deal with. 

The Hard Way:

• Locate an agent who’ll represent a seller with a water-damaged house. This isn’t an easy task.
• Sign the listing agreement and complete the property disclosure noting the water damage.
• Market the house to the public. This may include broker previews and open houses.
• Locate a seller, sign the sales agreement, open your house to home inspections, and renegotiate the sales price based on what the inspector finds. This can take weeks.
• Open escrow and wait for the buyers to qualify for a loan, the lender to do appraisals, and the underwriter to approve the loan for a water-damaged home. Your buyers will also need to shop for a hazard insurance company who will insure your property. This means more weeks of delay – or longer – with a water-damaged house.
• Close escrow. You’ll pay real estate commission fees and closing costs on your sale.

Yes and no. There’s a condition to the answer to this question. Missouri law says homeowners have to disclose water damage when selling a house to potential buyers who aren’t your relatives or a spouse.

Homeowners in Kansas City must complete a seller’s disclosure and give this to potential buyers, or the buyer’s agent, prior to closing the sale of the property.

The disclosure form has a segment that asks about water damage to the property.

There are a few more exceptions to the state-mandated disclosure rule. If you’re selling your water-damaged house as part of a court-ordered sale or as a lender foreclosure sale, you don’t need to complete the disclosure.

That means you don’t need to be transparent about the water damage on a disclosure because there typically isn’t one in these types of sales. The lender and the court take the house ‘as-is,’ water-damage and all.

If you’re selling your condo or townhouse in a development that has had water damage, but your unit wasn’t water damaged, then you also don’t need to disclose the water damage to the complex under Missouri law.

If you accept our cash offer on your property, you’ll need to provide us with a completed property disclosure.

Our company doesn’t care about the disclosure or about your water damage. We’re interested in making you an offer on your property.

To be honest, yes. It is difficult to sell a water-damaged house in Kansas City. With the increased public awareness of the health risks of black mold, more buyers are wary of buying homes with any sort of water damage.

We’re not most buyers. We’re not afraid of water damage. We’re not even afraid of black mold because we have experience in mitigating the dangers of mold and repairing water-damaged homes.

Most prospective buyers don’t have that experience – or the expertise – to do that. Buyers typically notice water damage listed on the seller’s disclosure, or worse, black mold, and they’re no longer interested in your property. But we are.
