Comparison

Investor vs. Realtor: An Honest Utah Comparison

Selling to an investor (Quick Step): close in 7 days, zero commissions, no repairs required, guaranteed outcome, as-is condition accepted, offer typically 70–85% of market value. Listing with a realtor: potentially higher sale price, but 5–6% commission, 60–90 day timeline, repair and staging costs, buyer financing risk, and no guaranteed close. For Utah homeowners facing foreclosure, divorce, job loss, inheritance, or a property in poor condition, an investor sale often wins on net proceeds when you factor in all costs. For a move-in ready home with no time pressure, a realtor listing may yield more.

Common Questions

Sell to an Investor vs. a Realtor in Utah — FAQ

Who should sell to an investor in Utah instead of using a realtor?

Homeowners who need to close quickly, have a property in poor condition, are facing financial hardship, inherited an unwanted home, or simply want a guaranteed outcome with no hassle.

Who should use a realtor instead of selling to an investor in Utah?

Homeowners with a move-in ready home, no time pressure, and who want to maximize sale price above all other considerations.

What does a Utah realtor typically charge?

Standard commission is 5–6% of the sale price, split between listing and buyer's agents. On a $400,000 home that's $20,000–$24,000 — before repair costs and carrying costs.

Can I get offers from both a realtor and Quick Step and compare?

Absolutely. We encourage it. Get a CMA from a realtor and a cash offer from us. Compare the realistic net proceeds from each scenario and make the choice that works for you.

Is Quick Step trying to take advantage of sellers?

No. We need to make a profit to run a business, and we're transparent about that. Our offers reflect real repair costs and market data. We'd rather explain our numbers and have you feel confident than close a deal where you feel shortchanged.

Utah Homeowners Love Working With Quick Step

★★★★★

I inherited my mom's house and had no idea what to do with it. Chase made the whole process so easy. We closed in 10 days and I didn't have to fix a single thing.

My house needed a new roof and the kitchen was a disaster. Every agent told me to fix it first. Quick Step just bought it as-is. Couldn't believe how smooth it went.

We needed to relocate for work in two weeks. Chase got us a fair offer within a day and we closed before we left town. Absolutely saved us.
