Hey y’all! I’m Erin, your friendly neighborhood real estate investor who doesn’t just buy houses—I buy stories. And today, I’m gonna debunk some Alabama real estate myths about living and investing in the Heart of Dixie, that’s right, Sweet Home Alabama! I also help folks sell their homes off-market, so sit tight. You might wanna reach out to me by the end of this blog. 😉
“The Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself!”
Remember what ol’ FDR said? In Alabama real estate, there’s a lotta fearmongering going on, especially when it comes to selling your house. Let me spill the sweet tea: That’s all just myths and tall tales.
Myth 1: Selling Off-Market Means Getting Lowballed
Let’s just get this out of the way—selling your home off-market doesn’t mean you’re gonna get ripped off. Quite the opposite, actually.
👉 Actionable Tip: Contact me, Erin. Unlike most real estate investors, I can offer you a heckuva lot of alternative options that can often mean purchasing your property at a much higher price, sometimes even at full market value.
Myth 2: Alabama Properties Are All Cheap and Low-Quality
Don’t let the low cost of living fool ya. You can find gems of all kinds here—quaint cottages to sprawling mansions.
Myth 3: You Need a Realtor to Sell Your House
Newsflash: You don’t. Here’s a jaw-dropping stat: 11% of all home sales in 2020 were For Sale By Owner (FSBO). That’s right, folks, more people are realizing they have the power to take charge.
“Go Big or Go Home,” They Say
When it comes to flexible and creative terms, I’m like a chef in a kitchen with unlimited ingredients. Rent-to-own? Owner financing? You name it, I’ve got it.
Myth 4: Quick Sales Are Impossible
Here’s where I come in to make life easier. I pay cash, close fast, and most importantly, close for sure. Your sale stays as private as your grandma’s secret biscuit recipe.
Myth 5: Off-Market Sales Are Full of Scams
Look, I get it. You hear “off-market,” and you think “off-kilter.” But just like you wouldn’t throw out all Southern cooking because you had one bad biscuit, don’t nix off-market because of a few rotten apples.
