I’m in the unfortunate position to be job hunting, so I have to answer unknown numbers. For years, I’ve gotten “I’d like to buy your house” spam calls. I’ve never been in a situation where I’d sell to a random caller. I can’t imagine one, either. I can imagine needing to sell my house, but I’d call a realtor or something. I wouldn’t engage a random cold-caller.
Does that ever work? Is it legit? I assume it must be profitable, because they keep doing it.
I always ask for about 3x my estimated tax value. They ask why, and I tell them that I want to but another house that isn’t falling down around me.
