Market options
Five real ways to turn your house into money: the iBuyer, the local investor, the wholesaler, the Orchard Cash Offer Marketplace, and the traditional listing. What each one is for, what it wants, and how it gets paid.
The Cash Offer Guide
Walk into the appointment knowing what each cash offer would really pay you.
The Cash Offer Guide is a PDF you read before we meet. Five kinds of cash buyer and how each one gets paid. The program read as a contract: the 14-day clock, the free exit, and Orchard's published fees quoted and dated. And five documented cases, each with a public source and the one question that would have stopped it.
In the last two years, my team and I have met with more than 3,000 sellers in appointments like yours.
What is inside
Three chapters, and every number in them is sourced.
How it works
The program read as a contract. What you sign and when the clock starts. The 14 days. The exit that costs you nothing. Orchard's published fees, quoted exactly and dated, and what those fees do not cover.
Horror stories
Five documented cases. Every one has a public source, a date, the trap it used, and the one question the seller should have asked before signing.
Why you read it first
The person at your kitchen table who has been asking what the plan is gets an answer with numbers in it. The next buyer who calls gets a seller who already knows what the house is worth to three other people.
You get away from signing the first offer you could not compare. The headline number that shrank after the inspection. The paper filed against your title that turned “I changed my mind” into “I cannot afford to change my mind.”
The Federal Trade Commission found that most people who sold to Opendoor “made thousands of dollars less than they would have made selling their homes using the traditional process” (ftc.gov press release, 2022-08-01). That is the price of a comparison nobody checked.
One honest limit. This is not a valuation of your home, and it does not promise how many offers you will get or what they will say. Nobody can promise that before they have seen the house.
What it costs
$30
Texas state and local sales and use tax is included in the sales price.
