SELL YOUR HOUSE IN DALLAS “AS IS.”
How to sell a house without a Realtor®
Selling a house without a Realtor® is easy when you work with America’s #1 cash home buyer.
How to sell your house without a Realtor®
You’ve decided to sell your house in Dallas, and now you need to figure out how exactly you want to sell. Your selling options will largely depend on your situation, your finances, and your goals. You have a few options available to you. You could sell traditionally, through a Realtor®. Or you may consider how to sell your house without a Realtor®. When you sell a house without a Realtor®, you have two options: You could sell FSBO (known as “for sale by owner”) or you could sell your house directly to a property buyer.
Should you sell FSBO?
Selling your house FSBO is an increasingly popular option. According to the National Association of Realtors®, there has been a 3% increase in FSBO home sales from 2021 to 2022, jumping from 7% to 10%. However, it is important to keep in mind that you will have all the responsibility of marketing, selling, and closing on your home sale. Also, at least half of the homeowners who decide to sell FSBO personally know the buyer, so if you do not have a buyer already in mind, it may not be a viable option.
Sell your house in three easy steps.

Calculating real estate agent commissions
In traditional real estate transactions, both the seller and buyer parties will pay fees to their real estate agents upon the finalization of a sale. These fees, known as agent commissions, are usually between 5% and 6% of the sale price across the United States, which are split between both the buyer’s agent and seller’s agent. On average, Texans pay around 4.5%–6% of the final sale price of their homes in real estate commissions to their agents.
According to Federal Reserve Economic Data, the average home sold in 2022 was valued at $454,525. This means that agent commissions alone, in Texas, were expected to be around $20,454–$27,272.
But selling a house without a Realtor® could help you save thousands of dollars in commission fees, as well as additional expenses accrued for marketing, showcasing, and making any necessary repairs and renovations that may be suggested by an agent.

Skip the selling hassles.
While selling your house through a Realtor® and selling FSBO both have their advantages and drawbacks, when you sell to We Buy Ugly Houses®, you get the independence of selling the property yourself coupled with the assistance and hand-holding an agent would provide.
When you sell your house directly to us, you get to:
- Avoid paying commissions. When you work with a Realtor®, you are responsible for paying commission fees in addition to closing costs. When you work with We Buy Ugly Houses, you keep all the profits, without having to pay out any additional fees or commissions. Even some other cash home buyers will charge you, but not us.
- Get a streamlined process. Finding a qualified buyer and negotiating a price with them can take months when using a traditional, Realtor®-mediated sale. On the other hand, selling directly to a cash home buyer like us greatly simplifies and shortens the process, as we have already done our due diligence on the house.
- Ditch the repairs and cleaning. One of the great benefits of selling to us is that you don’t have to make any repairs before closing; we are more than happy to buy your house “as is” without requiring any updates from you. This means that even if the property isn’t in perfect condition, we can still make you an offer that is fair, based on current market conditions.
When you choose to work with We Buy Ugly Houses®, we can save you time and money during your sale when compared to listing your house through an agent.
Everything was quick and easy. Fair offer friendly people and no changes or hidden agendas. Perfect.

Comparing your selling options
Selling a house with a Realtor® can offer time-saving services such as listing your home on the Multiple Listing Service and marketing it to potential buyers. They’ll also handle negotiations, paperwork, and other duties related to closing the sale.
On the other hand, selling a house without a Realtor® means you’ll save on Realtor® commissions. It is also much faster than selling traditionally since you won’t need to wait through an open house or multiple viewings. This is particularly valuable if you are in an urgent situation, such as facing foreclosure or needing money quickly for medical bills or to get out of financial distress.
Ultimately, it all comes down to your own personal needs and whether the savings and added convenience are worth foregoing traditional routes for selling your home.
