Cash offer vs. listing with an agent

Cost or factor	Cash sale	Traditional listing
Agent commissions	Usually none	Commonly 5%–6% of the price, set by agreement
Seller-paid closing costs	Often paid by the buyer — get it in writing	Commonly 1%–3%, plus any state transfer tax
Repairs and pre-sale prep	Sold as-is in most cash contracts	Paid by the seller before listing
Showings, staging, photos	None	Seller's cost and time
Holding costs while unsold	Days, not months	Mortgage, taxes, insurance, utilities until closing
Offer price	Below full retail market value	Market value, if it sells and appraises
Typical time to close	About 1–4 weeks	About 2–3 months from listing to closing
Certainty	No financing or appraisal contingency in a true cash deal	Can fall through on financing, appraisal, or inspection

These are typical ranges for each type of sale, not a quote from any company. A cash sale trades a lower price for speed, certainty, and fewer costs. Ask every buyer for the net amount you would receive at closing, in writing, before you compare offers.
