Selling an Outdated House in Westwego, Louisiana? An As-Is Cash Sale Option

Selling an outdated house can become frustrating when a property needs updates but you do not want to take on the time, cost, and work involved in completing renovations. In Westwego, Louisiana, Dillon King recently inspected a home that showed signs of being outdated but did not have any obvious foundation issues.

The property had older light fixtures, carpet, wood paneling, built-ins, an older kitchen, and what appeared to be an unfinished renovation. In this video, Dillon walks through the property and explains how Home Buyer Louisiana evaluates houses that homeowners want to sell a house as-is for cash.

If you are considering selling a house in Westwego, this walkthrough gives you a look at the type of condition a cash buyer may evaluate and why homeowners do not necessarily need to finish renovations before selling.

You can watch the video to see the property and hear more about the situation, or read the video transcript below.

Hey, what’s up, everybody? It’s Dillon King here with Home Buyer Louisiana. Today, this is a house I’m looking at. We are in Westwego. I’m not quite sure of the full backstory on this property. I definitely know it’s outdated, but I don’t see anything really wrong. I don’t notice any foundation issues.

You can definitely say it’s outdated. We can see this here, and I’m not a tall guy, I’m five-four, and this tub is only tiled about four feet, a little bit over four feet here. Carpet throughout the house, definitely old light fixtures, lots of wood paneling. Some of it has been switched over to sheetrock, and some of it has just been painted over.

It’s got a lot of built-ins. It almost seems like they were going to start updating the property and then stopped. I don’t know, maybe halfway through. You can even see we have almost those commercial ceiling tiles going on here.

But as far as that, I mean, it’s really just outdated, even the kitchen. Like I said, I don’t really have a backstory. I do know that in order for me to be here, the owners of this property must have gone to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com and told us that, for whatever reason, they want to get this property off their hands.

So here I am, I’m inspecting it, making sure the description they gave us on the online form that you will find at HomeBuyerLouisiana.com is accurate. We’re going to buy this house from the homeowners as-is for cash.

So they’re not going to need to come in here and finish any type of renovations that they’ve begun. They’re not going to have to do anything. You just simply need to get in touch with us.

Say, “Hey, I need help. I want to get this property off my hands,” and we will contact you. We purchase properties as-is all the time. We do it as quickly as we can. We know time is of the essence, and we buy with cash in hand.

I will say that I did notice that there was a real estate agent sign out front. So they must have been trying to sell this property for quite some time, and they’re just at the limit of the time they wanted to spend to get rid of it.

I am here to do it as quickly as possible. So again, if you missed it before, go to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com. Tell us about that property, and I will be around to check it out.
