Looking for a sweet deal? We have created a list of homes for sale in the Raleigh / Durham area that are likely to have motivated sellers, so you can get some instant equity. Many of these homes need some work, however you can save money overall with a low purchase price.
This page is created by taking all the homes that pass the first 90 days on the market or are estate sales or bank owned. Not all of these homes will have motivated sellers, but I can tell you from my experience that a longer a home sits on the market, the more negotiable a seller becomes. This is especially true if they have already moved into another home, since the home is sitting vacant. Estate sales and bank owned properties also sit vacant with holding costs that go up with every day.
Included below are homes that are likely to have motivated sellers in the main counties and cities of the Triangle in North Carolina. These include: Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Apex, Hillsborough, Mebane, Pittsboro, Wake Forest, and all the in-between towns. Please contact us if you would like information or a showing on any of these homes.
