An Easier Way to Sell Your Home—Even If It Needs Work

by Hanna Bederson

Not every home that hits the market is picture-perfect—and that’s okay. Some properties need more than a fresh coat of paint before they’re ready for buyers. Others come with unique challenges that can scare off the average agent or make traditional buyers hesitant. Over the years, my team has successfully sold homes in every imaginable condition, proving that with the right approach, any property can find the right buyer.

Experience With Every Type of Property Challenge
We’ve seen it all—and sold it all. From urban condos to rural East County acreage, our experience covers the full range of real estate scenarios. Just a few examples from our portfolio:

  • Homes with five dogs or three cats in residence

  • Properties with a cracked slab or structural concerns

  • Houses with active rodent problems or mold issues

  • Hoarder houses filled with decades of belongings

  • Homes with unexpected residents—including a lizard

  • Properties that have never been updated since they were built

Each of these situations presents unique challenges, but none are insurmountable when you have a strategy and the right resources.

The Key: Specialized Marketing and Strategic Solutions
Selling a home that needs work—or comes with unusual circumstances—requires more than just listing it on the MLS. It takes:

  • Accurate Pricing – Positioning the home to attract buyers who understand the scope of work required.

  • Targeted Marketing – Reaching investors, cash buyers, and niche markets that are comfortable with properties needing TLC.

  • Vendor Partnerships – Coordinating with trusted contractors, cleaners, pest control services, and repair specialists.

  • Creative Problem-Solving – Navigating inspection concerns, financing hurdles, and buyer expectations with skill and persistence.

Because we’ve handled so many of these transactions, we know how to anticipate challenges before they derail a sale.
