The Actual Math Behind Your Offer

How Do I Sell My House in Maryland for Cash?

No agents, no banks, no black-box number — here’s exactly how we calculate what we offer, and how we make sure it’s the number we actually close at.

Most cash-buyer sites tell you they’ll give you a “fair offer” without explaining what that means. This page shows you the real formula, a worked example with real numbers, and how to make sure any offer — ours or anyone else’s — doesn’t get quietly lowered after you’ve signed.

I had a great experience working with Ben throughout the entire process. He was very professional, communicative, and respectful from start to finish. The transaction went smoothly, and he and his team handled everything in a timely and organized manner. I appreciate their professionalism and would gladly recommend them to others. It was an absolute pleasure working with them.

Fantastic experience working with Ben. From initial conversation, to quickly scheduled showing, contract, and closing, all was done and dusted in 3 weeks. It was almost too easy. Thanks to Ben for his consistent and transparent communications. I would use and recommend Revolutionary Home Buyers again.

I met Ben after putting a 4sale sign in my row house window. He said they had just purchased the unit down the block. He made a respectable offer and purchased my unit quickly. To my surprise they also purchased 2 more of my units in Anne Arundel Co. Very respectable offers. Clear Title handled all 3 transactions with precise professionalism. Smooth. I'm smiling right now. Wow! 😀👍🏾

Ben is a true stand-up guy. We hit a small bump in the road to completing our transaction, but Ben assured me in person, that he would get it straightened out, and, that we would close on time - and we did!

Absolutely wonderful group to work with! Sold one of our properties in a matter of weeks where we thought it would take months. They worked extremely hard in helping us achieve our goals in a pretty tough market. Very grateful to the team for getting it done so quickly and efficiently.

Very smooth transaction with the sale of 2 properties to Revolutionary Home Buyers. They made the process easy and overdelivered when we ran into issues with Baltimore City. I will be doing more business with them in the future.

How We Calculate Your Cash Offer

Your Offer = ARV − Repair Costs − Selling Costs − Our Minimum ROI

1. After-Repair Value (ARV). The projected market value of your home once renovations are complete and it’s listed for sale — based on recent sales of comparable properties in your area, not a guess.

2. Repair Costs. Our estimate of what it costs to bring the house up to current market standards after purchase. Selling to us means you skip these costs and the hassle of managing repairs yourself.

3. Selling Costs. Agent fees, closing costs, taxes, and holding costs a traditional resale would incur — typically around 10% of ARV. Selling directly to us means you avoid these entirely.

4. Our Minimum ROI. The margin that keeps the business running. We keep this deliberately thin — our model is built on doing many transactions with modest margins, not a few high-profit deals.

Worked Example

As-Is Value$200,000
ARV (After Repair Value)$350,000
Cost of Repairs−$80,000
Selling Costs (10% of ARV)−$35,000
Our Minimum ROI−$50,000
Your Offer$185,000

How Do I Know You Won’t Lower the Offer Later?

The real risk with cash buyers usually isn’t a scam website — it’s an inflated initial number that quietly drops after “inspection.” Here’s how we avoid being that buyer.

The Common Lowball Tactic

  • A high initial offer gets you to sign a contract
  • An “inspection” finds issues that were visible from the street
  • The offer drops, and you’re now weeks into the process with less leverage
  • Vague “weasel clause” language lets the buyer walk or renegotiate almost any time

This page is about the math and the contract. For how to verify Revolutionary Home Buyers as a company — BBB status, real reviews, our office — see Legitimate House Buyers in Maryland. Maryland also regulates how earnest money deposits must be handled — you can read the state’s own consumer guidance through the Maryland Real Estate Commission’s consumer resources.

Straight Answers

FAQs About Our Offer Process

What exactly goes into my cash offer number?

Four things: After Repair Value (ARV), estimated repair costs, typical selling costs (around 10% of ARV), and our minimum ROI. We show you all four, not just a final number.

Will my offer change after you inspect the property?

We do our evaluation upfront, so the number we give you is the number we intend to close at — barring something genuinely undisclosed being found during a walkthrough.

How fast do you put down earnest money?

Within 48 hours of a signed contract. A buyer unwilling to commit funds quickly is a common warning sign worth asking about with any investor.

What's a "weasel clause" and should I worry about one in my contract?

It's vague contract language that lets a buyer back out or renegotiate for almost any reason. We avoid that kind of wording — you should always read any contract carefully and ask what a clause actually means before signing.

How is this different from checking if you're a legitimate company?

This page covers how the offer itself is calculated and protected. For verifying us as a business — BBB accreditation, real reviews, our office address — see Legitimate House Buyers in Maryland.
