Sell your house without a realtor
No listing agent. No buyer's agent. No 5-6% commission carved out of your equity. Lockwood Home Buyers buys your house directly for cash — no realtor required on either side.
Lockwood Home Buyers makes cash offers directly to homeowners — no fees, no commissions, and no obligation to accept. We are not a real-estate agent or broker; we buy houses for cash.
What you skip when you skip the realtor
- The 5-6% commission — on a $300k house, that\'s $15-18k. Gone.
- Showings — no strangers walking through your living room.
- Staging — no decluttering, no painting, no curb-appeal projects.
- Open houses — none.
- Inspection negotiations — we buy as-is, no credit-back drama.
- 60-120 day timeline — typical cash close is 14-21 days.
- Buyer financing risk — cash means no appraisal contingency, no loan-falls-through.
What you keep when you skip the realtor
- Equity that would have gone to commission.
- Privacy — your house isn\'t publicly listed on the MLS or Zillow.
- Control over the timeline — you pick the closing date.
- Optionality — you can decline any offer and try again.
The honest trade-off
A traditional MLS listing usually nets a higher headline number than a cash offer — typically 15-25% higher. After commission, repairs, and 60-120 days of holding costs, the gap narrows but rarely disappears. The trade is real dollars in exchange for speed, certainty, no repairs, no showings, and no commissions. For some sellers that\'s worth it; for others, it isn\'t. We\'ll show you the offer and let you compare.
