We're Here To Help Florida Homeowners

We know That Selling Your Home Is A Big Decision. You're probably wondering "How do I sell my house fast in Lakeland", and "Are Surety Homebuyers going to offer me a fair price for my home". There are other companies that buy houses in Florida that want to make an offer over the phone without even seeing the house. That doesn't even make any sense... We come out to every property that we make an offer on.

We pride ourselves on full transparency and providing all the necessary information. So, if you sold to us, you are CERTAIN you made the correct decision

Whatever kind of property you own, be it a house, apartment, condo, or land, you can sell it for cash and never pay any commissions, fees, or closing costs. You don't have to make any costly repairs or even clean first. We buy houses in Lakeland, and all over the state of Florida

Our Offers To Buy Your House Are Based On It's After Repair Value

Before our meeting at your property, we perform a comprehensive market analysis (CMA) on your home to determine its market value once it is completely renovated and brought up to today’s HGTV standards.

This gives us a great start in crafting your cash offer. Next, we subtract our costs for buying and selling your home, along with the costs associated with making the necessary repairs to bring your home up to its after-repair value, and the amount we need to make a profit. This brings us to your cash offer.

When we present you with your personal cash offer to buy your house, we will show you the exact breakdown of how we got to it, so you know exactly what your home is worth.

Your Offer:

At Surety Homebuyers we value honesty and transparency. This is precisely how we formulate our offers, and we have no problems sharing it with you. We believe you deserve to know.

[Your Offer] = [After Repair Value] – [Repair Costs] – [Our Selling Costs] – [Our Minimum Profit]

These are the variables we use to make an offer and an explanation of each item.

[After Repair Value (ARV): This is what the market value of your house will be AFTER we buy and renovate the house.

Repairs Costs: These are all our cost we will incur for fixing/updating the house AFTER we purchase it from you.

Our Selling Costs: Although we buy houses without involving agents, we, on the other hand, have to use an agent to sell that house again AFTER we have purchased it from you and fixed it up. So, we have to pay agent fees, closing costs, taxes, holding costs, etc. These are all the fees you do NOT have to pay if you sell your house directly to us. This is usually 10% altogether price of the selling price. (Our Selling Cost = 10% x ARV)

Our Minimum Profit: Yeah, this IS a business after all, and we wouldn’t be able to stay in business, buy more houses, pay contractors, plumbers etc., if we didn’t make some sort of profit. However, we keep this to an absolute minimum so we can present you with the highest possible offer. See, our business model is structured around making many deals with a little profit per deal, and not a few deals with a huge profit per deal. This benefits all.

There you have it. That is exactly how we make offers on houses. We use simple and straight math. We don’t make offers based on how desperate you are and would never do that. It wouldn’t be in our best interest. We have a reputation of being fair, legitimate, reputable, and honest house buyers and we want to keep it that way.

Check out our blog to learn more. We work quickly and can handle the entire process from start to finish.

Our 3-step Easy home buying process works fast, and we can work together to solve almost any real estate-related problem.

Short Answers to Some Commonly Asked Questions.

What does "as-is" mean?

We buy your Florida home as-is, meaning you don’t have to worry about doing repairs, fixing your home up, or getting it ready for showings. We’ll handle all repairs, inspections, and more after we purchase your home. We factor this into our offer, of course, but it saves you the money and the headache associated with getting your home ready to sell.

What does an "all-cash offer" mean?

“All-cash” means exactly that – all cash for your Florida home! Because we are real estate investors who are purchasing your home directly, we don’t rely on traditional financing like retail homebuyers. When you sell to us, there’s no risk of the financing falling through, or closing being delayed. When we make you an offer, that’s the full amount you’ll receive at close.

How fast is a fast closing?

After you send us information about your home, we can make you a no-obligation, fair all-cash offer in as little as 24 hours. Once you accept, we close at a local, reputable title company in as little as 7 days. Compare that to the 30+ days it can take to close when listing your house the traditional way, and the benefits are obvious!

What if I don't need a fast closing?

At Surety Homebuyers, we work on your time frame. If you don’t need a fast closing due to the need to make arrangements, explore your future options, etc., we will schedule the closing on the day that works best for you!

Will I get a low-ball offer?

Our goal is to provide you with the fairest offer possible. Unlike other buyers or the big tech giants, we’re transparent with how we arrive at an offer amount. What we offer is based on what the value of the property may be once we make the necessary improvements and upgrades. We’re entirely transparent with this offer process and happy to walk you through how it works.

Is this even legit?

Yes, it is! The real estate industry is rapidly changing, and thousands of Americans are exploring their options when it comes to selling their house the fastest, easiest, and most transparent way. That’s where we come in. We offer an alternative for those homeowners who may not have the time or ability to list their house on the market for top dollar. We’ll work with you to assess your situation, make you a transparent all-cash offer, and close on your timeline.
