A Home Full of Memories — and Stress
When the seller reached out about her property on NC HWY in Rocky Point, NC, she was carrying the emotional weight of an inherited mobile home that had fallen into severe disrepair. The home had belonged to her mother—and was her own childhood home—which made its declining condition especially painful.
Complicating matters, she had family living in the property rent-free who were not maintaining it at all. What should have been a blessing had become a heavy burden, and she was exhausted from trying to manage it.
Why Listing Didn’t Work
Although the property had been listed on the MLS for $135,000, it wasn’t getting traction. The seller, who was also the listing agent, knew the truth:
- The home was not financeable
- It required major repairs—over $50,000 worth
- Traditional buyers would demand inspections, credits, and repairs
- Carrying it any longer meant months more of stress and expense
When Jason Velie of Cape Fear Cash Offer toured the home, he made a straightforward offer: $120,000 cash, as-is.
No repairs. No inspections. No surprises.
It was exactly what the seller needed.
The Seller’s Emotions: Stress, Urgency & Hope for the Home
During their first conversations, the seller expressed:
- Stress from unsupported family tenants
- Pain seeing her mother’s home deteriorate
- Urgency to end the financial strain
- A desire to see the home restored—not demolished
She wanted a buyer who not only solved her problems quickly—but who would bring the home back to life.
Jason promised she could come see the finished renovation—something that mattered deeply to her.
Why She Chose Cape Fear Cash Offer
After seeing the property in person, Jason explained exactly how simple the process could be:
What Made Jason’s Solution Stand Out
- True as-is purchase — no inspections of any kind
- Cash offer the seller could count on
- Fast, certain closing in just 3 weeks
- No renegotiations
- Clear communication throughout
- An investor who would restore the home with care
For a seller who had already listed the property with no success, the certainty and simplicity were a huge relief.
A Smooth, Stress-Free Closing
The entire sale closed in just 3 weeks, a comfortable timeline for both parties.
There were:
- No septic inspections
- No HVAC checks
- No termite inspections
- No appraisal
- No repair requests
- No delays
The seller—being a real estate agent herself—appreciated the transparency and professionalism.
The Transformation: From Shambles to Revived
After renovations were complete, Jason invited the seller to walk through the restored home.
She cried—tears of relief, nostalgia, and gratitude.
Her mother’s home had been brought back to life, and the weight she’d been carrying for years was finally lifted.
