My ex-fiance and I have a home together and we've decided to go our separate ways. The home is in GREAT condition and its only 2 years old.
We really dont want to make money off it.... just want enough to pay the mortgage or possibly trade it in for something smaller in the area...neither one of us can afford this 275k (4br/2.5ba)home by ourselves but could afford something like a townhome.
Any investors out there...homes in this are will be worth a fortune and its a shame we can't hold onto it!!!
Has anyone tried callin these ads? What do they have to offer? P.S. I live in Forsyth County...one of the fastest growing counties in the US.

Exposure is the only thing that will sell your home. You need to be on realtor.com and MLS and in GA it's only $299 and it's good for up to 12 months with no hidden charges or renewal fees. Plus you can cancel anytime with 48 hours notice.
You can still sell by owner and pay 0% even if they find you on Realtor.com (as long as they don't have a contract with a buyer agent).
If an agent sells your home you pay 3% total commission. The Listing broker gets 0%.
Go to http://www.helpmesell.com to list your home and upload photos. Act now and your home could be on Realtor.com in time for Sunday web search results.

If you want to move it fast, you're going to have to do something to make your property the FIRST one folks will want to buy. In this market, that translates to LOWEST price.
Regardless of what you think it will be worth in the future, buyers are only going to pay what it is worth NOW.
You are advised to have this house professionally appraised and to set your starting price based upon the appraisal. You may find from the appraisal that current market value is less than you paid for the property two years ago.

If you sell your house to one of those investors you will have to sell at a very low price.
If instead you take a partial hit. Say, carefully look at the recent sales and how they compare to your home, first try listing it for that price. If that doesn't work quickly then lower it by 5%. I bet that sells it very quickly unless your market is dropping very fast.

The offers to buy your home fast and such are investors looking for bargains, they will typically pay about 70% of the value of your home. I know you are looking to sell fast, but I cannot suggest you take that kind of hit for quick sale.
If you are priced right, your home should sell. What is your Realtor saying about your market and your price?

You could stag it to appeal more to people. If you haven't heard of this, it's where people come in and decorate/arrange items in your home in order to attract people. You can even do it yourself, if you're creative. Have you ever seen a model home with furniture? People stag those homes to interest buyers. I've attached a link for you to see an example of home stagging. I think it really helps. Good luck!
