Sell a House Without a Realtor in Grosse Pointe, MI

Yes. Homeowners can sell directly without listing with an agent. The sale still closes through a licensed title company that handles the disclosures, title work, and paperwork to keep everything proper.

Agent commissions usually run 5–6% of the sale price. Selling directly to us removes that commission, and we cover the usual closing costs. So you keep more of the money.

A neutral, licensed title company manages the purchase agreement, title search, lien payoffs, and settlement statement. You're welcome to have an attorney review the agreement as well.

It's the easy version. FSBO still means marketing, showings, and waiting on financed buyers. Selling to us is one offer with no showings, no marketing, and no financing risk.

In most home sales, Michigan requires a seller's disclosure of known problems. Selling as-is doesn't remove that. But it's simple, and the title company helps make sure it's handled right.

As of July 2026, the typical middle-tier Grosse Pointe home is worth about $488,174 per the Zillow Home Value Index — up 3.8% over the past year. That's a citywide midpoint: values differ street to street between The Hill, Lakeshore Drive and Kercheval and other pockets of Grosse Pointe. When we price a home, we work from recent sales near your address and its true condition, not the citywide average.

On a listed Grosse Pointe sale near the typical home value of $488,174, plan on roughly $24,400–$29,300 in agent commission (5–6%), about $4,200 in Michigan transfer tax ($3.75 state + $0.55 Wayne County per $500 of price), plus owner's title insurance, any repair credits from the buyer's inspection, and the carrying costs while it sits on the market. When we buy directly there's no commission and we cover the standard closing costs — you still pay the state and county transfer tax as the seller, but the written offer is otherwise what you keep, less your mortgage payoff and prorated taxes.

Commissions in Michigan typically run 5–6% of the sale price. Against Grosse Pointe's typical home value of about $488,174, that's roughly $24,400–$29,300 you don't pay when you sell to us directly. We also cover the standard closing costs, so the written offer is what you actually walk away with.

All of them. That includes The Hill, Lakeshore Drive, Kercheval, Grosse Pointe Park border and Grosse Pointe Farms border — and every other street in Grosse Pointe. If the property is anywhere in Wayne County, we'll make a written cash offer on it, regardless of condition.

Yes. We buy Grosse Pointe homes of all sizes as-is. That ranges from the family homes around The Hill and Kercheval to the historic, larger houses near Lakeshore that need updating or major upkeep. The detail and upkeep older estates require can make a traditional sale slow and costly. We take that on, so no repairs are required from you.

It can be very private. A direct cash sale means no public MLS listing, no sign in the yard, no lockbox, and no open houses. It's just a simple, private sale with us. Many Grosse Pointe sellers value that privacy as much as the speed.
