12701 Weiss St, Rockville: A Dated, Functional Home Sold at Retirement

Transaction date: January 30, 2019

A long-time home no longer fit the seller’s plans

The seller was retiring after living in the home for almost 30 years. His wife had passed away, his children were grown, and he no longer needed the larger house.

Dated did not mean unworkable

The property was functional and generally in good working condition. Its appearance was substantially dated, largely reflecting an older 1970s-era condition. The seller did not want to spend money renovating before a sale.

A private as-is sale

The seller wanted a simple, private transaction. House For Cash purchased the home as-is on January 30, 2019, with closing in approximately 30 days.

What This Example Shows

An as-is sale can suit an older, functional home. Here, the decision was about retirement, a smaller household and avoiding updates before selling, rather than major property failure.
