Frequently asked questions
Can I get a cash offer for my house in Sarasota, FL?
Yes. Geri Scheckner, a Sarasota agent and real estate investor, can make or arrange a cash offer on qualifying homes in Sarasota, Nokomis and Venice, often as-is and on your timeline. Call 941-356-0652.
Is a cash offer less than listing my home?
Usually a cash offer is lower than the top open-market price, because the buyer takes on repairs, holding costs and risk. Geri shows you both numbers side by side so you can choose based on your net, not just the price.
Do I have to make repairs for a cash offer?
No. Cash offers are typically as-is, so you do not need to fix, paint or stage.
How fast can a cash sale close?
Cash sales can often close in a few weeks once title work is done, or later if you need more time to move.
Does Geri disclose that she is a licensed agent when she buys?
Yes. Geri is a licensed Florida broker associate, and when she or her company is the buyer, that is disclosed in writing.
