Are Quick House Sale Companies Safe? What to Watch Out For

If you’ve ever Googled “sell my house fast”, you’ve probably seen pages of promises:

“Any house, any condition, sold in 7 days!”

Sounds good, right? But how do you know if it’s safe?

Here’s what you really need to know about quick house sale companies — the good, the bad, and how to protect yourself.

✅ Put everything in writing — including your offer.

✅ Pay your legal fees and don’t charge hidden costs.

✅ Won’t drop your offer at the last minute.

The Bad Ones
