• The time it will take to finish needed repairs
• The value of your home compared to other comparable homes in the area
• The real estate commission required to resell your home
• The costs associated with maintaining your home during repairs, including taxes, payments, insurance, utilities, homeowner dues, and more

General Questions
This FAQ has a broader answer than most people expect. Our definition of “AS Is” includes houses that are cosmetically distressed, houses with a serious repair or structural issues, and houses that keep homeowners captive situation. This typically includes:
- Houses in undesirable areas or in high-crime neighborhoods
- Houses in areas prone to storm damage, such as homes in flood plains
- Houses that are no longer convenient for homeowners, such as with a long commute to a new job
- Houses with bad memories for a homeowner, such as death, tragic experience, or divorce
- Houses with negative mortgage financing terms or high-interest rates
- Houses with high payments or upside-down mortgage balances
- Houses that cause any other type of disadvantage to a homeowner
A leaseback, often referred to as a sale-leaseback, is a financial arrangement where a property owner sells their property and subsequently leases it back from the buyer. This arrangement offers mutual benefits: the seller gains access to equity while continuing to use the property as a tenant, and the buyer acquires a property with a built-in tenant, creating a win-win scenario for both parties.
Homeowners today don't know they have this option (we at JC REInvestment Group want to change that!).
We specialize in residential single-family homes and townhouses, including those located in gated communities. Homes must be owner-occupied to be eligible for our sale leaseback program.
Typically— but not always— a homeowner considering a home sale-leaseback agreement is under tight financial strain and is struggling to pay their mortgage. You may not be prepared to move out of your neighborhood and want to remain in your current home without the burden of a high-cost mortgage that you simply cannot afford. This transaction grants you the convenience and dignity of remaining in your home for an extended period of time until you have the means to move with minimal disruption.
Others who are in comfortable financial standing may be looking for an opportunity to get more money for their home while the selling market is hot. If you would consider capitalizing your home equity while its value is high, without the hassle of instantly moving, a home sale-leaseback arrangement may be the perfect solution.
Great question. Actually, that’s one of the most frequently asked questions we get here, and the answer is simple. Homeowners from all walks of life sell houses, homes, and properties to Your Florida Home Buyer® for a number of reasons, including:
- Relocating to another city or state
- Facing foreclosure because of delinquent mortgage payments
- Needing to liquidate assets due to divorce, medical bills, or other cash need
- Wanting to sell a property inheritance quickly
- Not having the money or desire to make necessary home repairs
- Getting rid of problematic rental property
- And many other reasons
If you’re interested in selling your home, it’s important to know that the thing most of the people selling their houses to Your Florida Home Buyer® have in common is their need to sell quickly to a reputable home buyer who can ensure a fast, hassle-free closing and all cash sale.
Possibly. Our network of buyers is good at what they do and if there is a way for your local network member to buy your house before the foreclosure sale, you can avoid foreclosure. Typically the most effective way to stop foreclosure and/or a short sale is to sell your house quickly. Here at Your Florida Home Buyer® or StopForeclosuresNow.co, our network members close quickly and in some cases, extremely quickly, to help the seller (you) avoid foreclosure.
If you owe more on your house than it's worth, typically referred to as "Under Water", your local Your Florida Home Buyer® network member may be able to buy your house on a Short Sale. Many banks will take less than what is owed if there is a credible buyer ready to close. This is where we come in. We buy houses from people who are underwater all the time.
It is very likely that there is, depending on where you live. Either way, there is one that's close enough. Keep in mind, that in some cases, Network Members buy properties that are not local to them. So the Member that buys your property may be right in your town, and in other cases, they might be in the next county or even the next state. What matters is that you've got a buyer that knows what they're doing and will facilitate an easy transaction that is win-win.

We offer fair prices for properties that allow us to make money too. We often purchase properties at below market value to ensure we can resell it for some margin of profit. In our experience, many sellers aren’t necessarily expecting a price far above market value, but rather appreciate that we can offer cash, we close very quickly, and no effort or expense is required on your part to fix up the property or pay agent fees.
If you see the value in getting your house sold fast for immediate cash, let’s see if we find a win-win price. Our no-obligation pricing means that you do not have to move forward with the offer we give if it does not meet your expectations.
Unlike the traditional route of selling your home with a real estate agent, there are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house to JC REInvestment Group.
We’ll make you an offer, and if the offer is acceptable to you, we buy your house!
No Hassle • No Obligations • No Fees • No Commissions
We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it for a profit. This model allows us to take on the risk of whether we will receive a profit or not.
Real estate agents list properties and hope to connect you with a potential buyer. The agent shows the property and if they find a buyer, they take a percentage of the sale price as their commission, typically ranging from 3-6%. The traditional route of working with a real estate agent might work if you do not mind having your house listed for an undetermined amount of time on the market and paying this large commission at the close of the sale.
Unlike the traditional route, we’re not agents, JC REInvestment Group are home investors. We actually buy your house directly and pay with all cash. We take on the risk of selling your home to a future buyer after completing repairs in hopes of making a profit.
We are here to help you get your house sold quickly and easily. It's what we do best. As far as you buy another house, we suggest you contact a local Real Estate Agent. If you don't have one, we'd be happy to refer you to a realtor in your local area.
None! Simply tell us a bit about your property and let us complete an in-person or over the phone evaluation. From there, we will provide you with an all-cash offer. If the amount offered is acceptable to you, we can proceed with the sale. If it does not meet your standards, no problem. We won’t hassle you; we won’t harass you. It’s 100% your decision and we’ll let you decide what’s right for you.

We understand that you may be looking for a timely solution to a challenging situation, so we’ll get to work right away. As soon as you reach out, our dedicated team of JC REInvestment Group advisors will begin exploring your best options and developing an actionable plan that helps you move forward, fast. They will walk you through the process of selling your home and then signing a lease, making sure you understand every single step.
Many of our partners have been able to complete their home sale and rental agreement within the span of about 45 days. In some cases, homeowners may be able to complete the transaction in even less time.
Put simply, Sale-Leaseback is the simple process of selling your home and leasing it back. Other products like reverse mortgages, home refinancing loans, or HELOCs are complex loans that result in debt. A JCREIG transaction results in no debt.
By working with JCREIG, homeowners gain access to their home equity in the form of debt-free cash. And, because they make the transition from homeowner to renter, they’re no longer responsible for property taxes, essential maintenance, and homeowner’s insurance fees.
With a reverse mortgage, for example, a homeowner gains access to only 40–60% of their equity in the form of a complex cash loan that carries increasing interest and fees. Because individuals retain ownership in a reverse mortgage or refi scenario, they will still be responsible for property taxes, home maintenance, and homeowner’s insurance. These costs and responsibilities can really stack up. And while homeowners aren’t required to make monthly payments to their reverse mortgage lender, they (or their beneficiaries) will eventually be required to repay the debt—sometimes by selling the home.
How long you stay in your home is entirely up to you. As long as you continue to pay rent and comply with the long-term lease agreement, there’s no limit to how long you can rent the property.
Some of our customers see JCREIG as a long-term, supportive solution for remaining in the house and community that they love. Others view a sell-and-stay transaction as the first step toward their next adventure.
Using best-in-class technology and years of experience in the real estate market, our team of real estate professionals and financial experts will assess the property value of your home and any other owned real estate asset.
Once the value has been established, we’ll calculate a lease payment that aligns with comparable rentals in your area. If you have questions about the valuation process or your leaseback arrangement terms, one of our (real, human) team members is just a call or message away.
Typically, the new owner of the home will base their rent cost on market rent averages for the area while considering the size and amenities of the house. Keep in mind that the whole reason you are selling your home and becoming a renter is so you can save money by leasing. That’s why the monthly rental cost is usually significantly lower than your previous mortgage payment. The purchasers will work with you to set your monthly cost to align with your budget. To do so, you typically have three options:
Full Pre-Pay - How nice would it be to not have a monthly mortgage or rent payment? You may choose to eliminate the monthly hassle altogether by taking proceeds out of the initial sale of your home and paying your rent cost upfront in full for the entire term of your lease. Bye, bye rent payment; hello, extra cash flow!
Partial Pre-Pay - In other cases, you may pre-pay a portion of the rent to decrease your monthly out-of-pocket rent payments. For example, if market rent is $1,800, you could pre-pay a portion so you are only paying $900/ month out-of-pocket for the lease term.
Full Rent Cost - If you need cash now and would like to keep the full payout for your home, you can choose to simply pay a monthly rental fee as you go. This grants you full access to your money so you can budget it throughout the terms of your lease.
Real estate asset transactions can be riddled with fees. At JCREIG, we’re committed to keeping as much of your cash in your hands as possible. When you sell your home, you will pay a standard fee of 5.5%. This is typical of a standard home sale.
The inspection process is a standard part of any home sale. We believe that transparency is essential to our process, so we hire a third party expert to conduct inspections before we close.
When we have the full picture of a home’s condition from an independent source, we can arrive at the final price and plan for any necessary repairs.
