Sell a House Without a Realtor in Southfield, 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 Southfield home is worth about $258,011 per the Zillow Home Value Index — up 1.7% over the past year. Actual closed sales tell a similar story — the median Southfield sale price is running about $230,417. That's a citywide midpoint: values differ street to street between Magnolia, Lathrup Village border and Civic Center area and other pockets of Southfield. When we price a home, we work from recent sales near your address and its true condition, not the citywide average.

On a listed Southfield sale near the typical home value of $258,011, plan on roughly $12,900–$15,500 in agent commission (5–6%), about $2,220 in Michigan transfer tax ($3.75 state + $0.55 Oakland 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 Southfield's typical home value of about $258,011, that's roughly $12,900–$15,500 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 Magnolia, Lathrup Village border, Civic Center area, Telegraph corridor and Northland district — and every other street in Southfield. If the property is anywhere in Oakland County, we'll make a written cash offer on it, regardless of condition.

Yes. We buy Southfield houses as-is. That includes older homes near Lathrup Village and the Civic Center area that need big-ticket systems like a roof, furnace, or electrical service updated. You won't pay for a single repair or wait around for contractors. We account for that work in our offer and handle it ourselves after closing.

Definitely. We buy rental properties throughout Southfield, occupied or vacant. So you can leave the landlord business without turning the unit, making repairs, or waiting out a lease. We'll settle rent and the security deposit at closing, and we can buy a single rental or a small portfolio.
