How Much is Your Sacramento Home Worth?

May 23, 2017

Whether you are selling with a real estate agent or straight out to an investor, it’s important to know how much you might get from the sale of your home. As a real estate investor throughout Sacramento, Modesto and Stockton, I pay close attention to the market to make sure that all of my sellers receive fair market value without having to pay a real estate agent’s commission or do anything to the house.

Currently, the median sales price, not the list price but the sales price, of a home in Sacramento is $280,000. This comes in at about $215 per square foot. Now, this is the median price. This is not the average. The median is right in the middle. It is the most common price but of course, half of the homes for sale are over $280,000 and a half are under that. Condition, location, and features all play major roles and how much your Sacramento home is worth.

Prices have been increasing since March, where they were the lowest since June of last year. We are in technically a hot seller’s market but that’s also for homes that are in good condition and that show well. Of course, all the homes for sale on national real estate websites will be listed with a real estate agent or in the local MLS. This alone costs money. Even if you plan on listing the home yourself and trying to sell it, many buyers will want to have a home inspection or even have their own buyers agent to facilitate the transaction, which means you will still have to pay some type of commission.

If you’re selling to an investor such as myself, we take homes in as-is condition. There’s no need to clear the home, fix up the home or perform any repairs. I give you an offer of what your home is currently worth in its current condition.

The median home value for Sacramento is about $293,000 but again, that’s right in the middle. Smaller homes, homes in less than desirable school districts are communities, the condition of the home or other factors can definitely play a role in how much you can get for the house. (prices are for May 2017 and may be different in the future)

Sacramento is a hot real estate market but it also depends on the type of house and where you are located. Because I specialize in buying homes with cash and since I don’t require a home inspection or changes of any kind, you can walk away from the home free and clear within just a couple of weeks. It’s a lot easier and less expensive in the long run. Choosing to fix up the home, putting money into repairs or remodels and then spending the money to hire a real estate agent to market and sell the house, may actually lose you money. You spend more money in doing all those additional things than simply taking an offer from an investor outright.

So, contact me today to find out exactly what your Sacramento home is worth and how much I’d be willing to pay you today.

Hear What Others Have To Say…

The City of Stockton was getting ready to tear down my old house. I was no longer able to maintain the Stockton House and after years of trying to keep up with code violations, needed repairs and vandalism, I finally called Peter

Westbrook. He came right out and told me what he could do. He contacted the city and county and even cleaned up the property before he bought it. He paid the back taxes for me and gave me an advance on the purchase of the house. Without his help I would have lost everything. I called real estate agents and other investors but no one wanted to help and no one offered to pay as much as Peter Westbrook. He completely remodeled the house and I smile every time I go by. Thank you Peter.

We inherited our parents house with one of our brothers living there . The property taxes had not been paid and it was in Tax default. We called Peter Westbrook and he found that the title was still in our parents name, so the Stockton House never went through probate. Peter also found that there was an old auto loan that had a lien on the

title and an old bankruptcy ruling to take care of that lien had never been filed with the courts. Peter handled everything including paying the back taxes, paying for the hiring a Probate Attorney and filing the probate and paying for and hiring a Bankruptcy Attorney to finalize the removal of the lien. He was patient, understanding and he took care of everything including evicting the tenants that were living in the house. We talked to real estate agents and other I buy house people. None of them had the answers for our situation. Without peter we would have lost everything. We got paid cash.

We inherited my parents Stockton house with a mortgage. We decided to rent it out. The tenants destroyed the house. I didn’t know what to do, I didn’t have the money to fix it and the city had already issued code violations.. I called an “I Buy Houses Stockton Sign” on a telephone pole and Peter Westbrook answered. In 4 days he paid the bank and bought my house. We would have lost everything if it weren’t for Peter Westbrook.

I inherited my mothers house with a mortgage. When my husband and I lost our jobs, we got behind in payments. Then the Bank posted a default with a auction date we didn’t know what to do.

We didn’t have the $15,000.00 and we only had two weeks to do something. We called Peter Westbrook and form the beginning he was confident he could stop the bank. Within 4 days he bought the house with cash, paid off the bank and stopped the Foreclosure. Without Peter we would have lost everything.

I saw a sign on a telephone pole and against my better judgement I called. The last thing I expected was a person answering the phone. I was surprised, Peter Westbrook answered the phone. I had a lot of questions and Peter had the right answers. My mother needed to get as much as possible out of the house and we had talked to several real estate agents and they all wanted to sell it cheap and wanted a 6% commission. They all told us unless we put thousands of dollars into it could not be sold for what we wanted. Not Peter. He made a fair cash offer and since then we have sold him another house. Peter and the title company handled everything. I couldn’t be happier and I would recommend Peter Westbrook to anyone.

I needed to sell my Stockton House. I called a phone number I saw on a sign and talked to Peter Westbrook. The City of Stockton said that they were going to take away my vacant Stockton house, knock it down and send me the

bill to do it. I did everything that I could to try to make them happy. A neighbor offered to buy the house and then Peter offered me twice as much. He did everything he said he would do and I just had to go to the Title Company and sign the papers. He did all of the work and now the City of Stockton is his problem. Thank you Peter.

I inherited my Fathers Stockton house. The front porch was falling in, the walls had holes from being vacant and vandalized. The City of Stockton fined us, red tagged the property and forced us to put on a new roof so we had to get loans and we still couldn’t rent it out.

I called one of those “I Buy Houses” signs and Peter Westbrook came out and made a cash offer. The House closed escrow and we got our money for a house we though was worthless. Thanks Peter!”

“Our Grandfather passed away and my brother, sister and I inherited his Stockton house. He was a junkman and hoarder. He was also 90 years old and had not made a repair to the house in years. He had garage sales almost every day. The house and the yard were full of junk. We tried to get everything out so we could just see the house. We had family and friends come over on the weekends but the cost and effort was consuming all of our time.The house was a mess.

I called Peter Westbrook and he made us a cash offer for the house and he said he would take care of all of the clean up. Thank God I called. The City had issued code violations and fines on the property and even before we closed escrow Peter and his crew had the house and yard cleaned (4 large Dumpsters later) . I recommend Peter Westbrook to anyone that has a problem house. They were fast and professional”

“I had tried to sell my Mothers Stockton house for two years. Realtor’s told me to tear it down. I didn’t have the money for that and my Brother and his family were living there. Peter Westbrook made me a cash offer and closed escrow with my brother still in the house. Peter Westbrook is my savior. I don’t have to worry about the house any more. If you have a Stockton house that has become a burden and you don’t have the money to fix it to sell it, call Peter Westbrook.”
