Selling your NC to Bright Home Offer vs. Listing with a Real Estate Agent
Even in a seller’s market like NC, it’s important to weigh your options and figure out the best path for your goals.

Let’s dive into the details to compare the two options.

If you can’t come to an agreement with the buyer, the buyer has the right to back out of the sale. Similar, a financing contingency gives the buyer the wiggle room to back out of the purchase if they can’t obtain a loan or if the home doesn’t appraise for the value that the bank needs to close the loan.
Here at Bright Home Offer, we don’t use bank financing so you don’t have to worry about our ability to close on a deal.
