Why does Opendoor buy your home?
Opendoor is a company that buys properties below market value, then completes repairs to sell for a profit.
How does it work when you sell to Opendoor?
Step 1. Opendoor sends you an offer and from the offer Opendoor deducts their fee. Their fee is usually 7.5-8.5% of the purchase price.
Step 2. You coordinate a home inspection with Opendoor. They send out one of their home inspectors to review your home’s condition and find needed repairs. If you made a mistake on the condition questions you were originally asked prior to getting the offer, an adjustment will be made.
Step 3. Several days after the home inspections are completed, Opendoor will put together a report of the repairs they require to sell the home again. You have the option of making the repairs they have asked or they will deduct the cost of the repairs from the offer so you don’t have to do the work yourself.
Step 4. At this point you either cancel the agreement with Opendoor if you are not satisfied with the repair cost, or if you agree-> you move forward towards selling the home to Opendoor.

All of the companies are different but they use the same data: homes recently sold and current homes for sale in your neighborhood. Some companies pay more and are willing to take more risk. Prices and fees are similar between the companies you see on TV and online. (Beware of “cash buyers” or your neighbor who may pay much less than what your home is worth.)

Can I cancel selling my home to Opendoor after I start the process?
Opendoor wants you to have a good experience and if you do not want to move forward with the sale, Opendoor has very lenient cancellation policies. If you do something to your home without Opendoor’s knowledge like post it online for sale, they may cancel the contract on you as well.
Should I have an agent when working with Opendoor?
Absolutely! Without an agent you do not know if the price Opendoor is paying is fair market value. Do not use Zillow or Redfin as your evaluation for your property value as they are inaccurate. Think about it: how does a computer know what your home is actually worth?
By the time Opendoor takes out their 7.5-8.5% fee and deducts money for repairs the money you make can be less (up to $100,000) than what you would make if you sold it regularly. Do not contact Opendoor without talking to a Francesca first as she is experienced working with Opendoor and similar companies.
I guarantee, you will have more money in your bank account after you sell your home if we work together.
