How Easy Is It to Sell a House That Needs Major Repairs in Brentwood, MO?
When someone is interested in buying a house, they usually want a place where they can move in and immediately feel like they have a comfortable home for their Brentwood, MO family. While some may be OK with repainting the walls, a traditional home buyer will usually not want to buy a house that needs major repairs. They just dedicated a considerable amount of money on the down payment and have a mortgage to pay for monthly. The idea of added costs of hiring somebody, or the months it would take to handle the repairs themselves, does not attract many buyers.
Serious damage that we often see in Brentwood, MO include:
- Condemned properties
- Fire or water damage
- Lead or asbestos
- Mold
- Plumbing issues
- Wind or hail damage
- A foundation that’s starting to crack
- Termite damage
- Holes in the roof or floor
Other issues that can make a house “unsellable” to a traditional buyer include disagreeable odors, restricted natural light, bad construction like a poor floor plan, a home that’s cluttered, or even homes that are outmoded that have unappealing furnishing like ugly carpets.

What Causes the Need for Major Repairs in Brentwood, MO?
Houses, like cars, can suffer from wear and tear and require minor repairs annually. When that doesn’t happen, maybe in the event that a home was vacant for years or the house was inherited from a loved one who couldn’t properly take care of it. Those minor nicks and scratches can become worsen and cause serious damage.
If the home was a rental property, maybe you had bad tenants who did not treat the propert well. In situations like what happened recently with the historic floods in the St. Louis area, natural disasters can cause serious damage in no time.
How to Sell a House That Needs Major Repairs in Brentwood, MO
If you want to sell a house in Brentwood, MO that needs major repairs, you can take one of three options:
- Make the repairs yourself — While many people in Brentwood, MO can teach themselves how to fix a loose shower head, major repairs such as water damage need to be handled by professionals in order to do so safely. Even if you have extensive construction experience yourself, much of what you might make by selling the house fully repaired would be lost in materials, when the cost of many commodities such as lumber is still not down to pre-COVID levels.
- Hire someone to make the repairs — You can enlist the services of experts to repair the damage for you, but, like like the previous option, that will eat into how much money you’ll get from the sale. A roof replacement can cost up to $11,000, while redoing an entire kitchen can cost $20,000 to $50,000. Even when hiring general contractors, the cost vs. value of most repairs does not give a full return on investment.
- Sell your house “as-is” — As-is house buyers do not necessarily look to buy turnkey properties. They typically look for homes that need a fair amount of repairs, and drive their business of the slight profit they get when they resell it. While you won’t sell an as-is house for as much as you would if it was in perfect shape, you’ll save untold amounts of money, months of construction crews and labor, and the stress of the conventional market.
With the first two options, you’ll also have to pay for third-party inspectors and appraisers, give a realtor 6% of the final sale, and wait months or even years before the house is ready to be listed and you find someone to buy it.
