Are you currently living in a home in New Mexico that is damaged or destroyed and you need to sell it quickly? Well, this can be very complicated, but we are here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be.

First, we want to point out the traditional ways of selling your home in New Mexico and why they aren't going to work well for your situation.

Selling Your House by Owner 

In an ideal world, this is the route that every person who sells a home would take if it was easy. But, did you know that it can take 2-3 times longer than selling with a third party?  

On top of this long waiting game, the homes that do sell have to be in excellent condition.

Well, now that we pointed that out let's remember why we’re here. Your home needs repairs. We know that isn’t what you wanted to be reminded of. However, it is the truth and that is the only thing that the buyer is going to care about.

So what should you do? What are your options? There are a couple of things that you can do.

  • Renovations
  • Repairs
  • Price the home lower than the value

These are your main options when you are trying to sell your damaged home on your own. It is possible, but as you can see from the list above, it will not be cheap or easy.

If you do decide to repair or renovate your home, plan on spending a lot more on the projects that you will see from the sale of your home. If you simply just need to paint and replace flooring, which will make your home nice enough to appeal to a buyer, then that could make it worth trying to sell your home on your own.

The last of many concerns that come with trying to sell your damaged home on your own is TIME. On top of the hefty expenses from these projects, they also take a lot of time. These projects can take months or even years to complete depending on the damage. If you are needing to get out of your home ASAP, then this is NOT the right option for you.

Hiring a Realtor 

Selling with a realtor is a great way to hand off this daunting task to someone else. They will list the home, host all the showings, market the home, and find the right buyer.

The problem you are still running into is that your house is damaged so it will take a lot of time to find a buyer who will look past the flaws, or they may never even find one. And the realtor will most likely ask you to repair the home. We talked about the problems with doing this above. One thing a realtor will offer you is pricing the home really low and get you the sale that you are looking for. The downside; you are out A LOT of money.
