The Problem
Selling a Damaged Home the Traditional Way Is an Uphill Battle
Selling a fire or water damaged home in Cleveland through traditional channels is an uphill battle.
Retail buyers back out the moment damage shows up on an inspection report- Lenders won't approve financing on homes with unresolved damage
- Cleveland's aging housing stock makes repairs more involved and more expensive
- Insurance settlements take months and rarely cover the full cost
- Vacant damaged properties can attract vandalism and additional code issues
Every month the damaged property sits costs you more than just money.
