Opendoor

Hears about opendoor on the radio and was thinking it would be the perfect option for me. But when I had them give me an offer they lowballed it hard. They offered me almost $ 15,000 less than the actual houses in my area were selling for by taking comps from homes that were not in anyway comprobable to my home or neighborhood. When I brought it to their attention I got «good luck getting better on the market» I had a change in career and was needing to move soon and wanted to get it appraised again due to my knowledge of the prices of houses that were selling my neighborhood and all the comps of the area and the offer they gave me again? Another additional $ 3,000 off their lowball offer. I brought this to their attention that there was no way that could be right. They are only interested in a turn and burn operation. Buy houses at a lowball price.
On the terms of buying we had walked through a number of their homes and found quite a bit of damages that would not have passed inspection. One of the lightswitches in the houses shocked me so bad if flared up my arthritis for days. Not a very good company to deal with if you want a fair and professional experience.

My house in Gilbert, AZ is taking forever to be sold. I saw the commercial on TV and decided to try
. I input my house info and few hours later I received a price quote. I was so shocked on all the fees they had included. To make the story short, if I use
, I would be paying about $ 5000 our of my own pocket (not including the closing cost that will be out of my pocket too). I still don’t understand why their fees are so high in the first place? What a total rip off!!!

It’s been three days since filling out online form with no offer. So much for, in a few minutes to a few hours as advertised. I know they have my email cause I did get an email right away that they had received my form. Is this business really legit? Hmm
Update: got response on fourth day with apology cause their email was down. They don’t buy houses built before 1960. Guess that leaves all of sun city out. Even though it was 1960 and after.

This is like selling something at a pawn shop. You know you are going to get a really low offer but you need to decide quickly or how bad you need or want the money. The offer they made me was based on «comps» in my area.2 recent buyers in my immediate area bought homes at extremely low prices and then proceeded to renovate those homes for 60+ days or costs of ten of thousands of dollars. These are hardly «comps»… This is is good service if you inherit a home and have no intentions of ever living in that home or renting it out and just want the $$$$.I paid $ 272 000 for my home and spent $ 15 000 to refurbish the home. I would gave been happy w/​a $ 250k net offer. They offered me $ 225k after deducting costs from their $ 253k offer if the home needed ZERO repairs. Using the internet or «comps» to establish a fair offer without any true knowledge of the home you are reviewing is just ludicrous. How bad do you need the money??? This firm needs to do their homework!!!

Selling our home through Opendoor has been such a positive experience. We were able to set our close date that agreed with our schedule. No hassle whatsoever. The fees may be more than traditional realtors, but the service makes it worth the cost. No preparing your home for strangers to view. We packed and moved on our schedule. Our only regret is not buying a home through Opendoor.

There are not enough positive words I can use for the experience Open-​door provided when selling my Dad’s home. I lost my Dad unexpectedly and they made the process of selling his home flawless. Mark was beyond helpful and sincere, he made the process easy and let me say my good-​byes to the house on my time. If you are wanting a seamless close on a property and would like to sell fast, do not look any further. Call Open-​door and schedule your appointment. You will be so thankful you did. No need to deal with realtors and go through the process of selling.

The funny thing was while selling my home with Open Door, I kept feeling like «there has to be something that I’m missing! This is too easy!» I can’t say enough about how great they all were to deal with.

I used open door to sell a second home I had owned in Arizona. Their offer was on-​par with the value of the house based on what other homes in the area were selling for. Yes I paid more in fees then I might have paid through a traditional sale, but to have the sale done in less than a month saved me the possibility of 2 – 3 additional months of mortgages payments and the headache of dealing with having the house on the market. It was a very stress free and fast process and I’d definitly do business with Opendoor again in the future.

First learned about them when I received their mailer which has an estimated range of an offer to buy your house. My first clue was that the offer was to buy my new home which I had just paid $ 275k for and their offer was in the $ 235k range. Note that these houses are still selling for that price so the comps are still up there. Well I have a house in Arizona that I was curious about what their offer might be. Turns out as you will see in all the other 1 star ratings they not only low-​ball you but they add fees that you will not see if you sell through a Realtor. This means if you put your house on the market at the price that Opendoor offered you, you will receive more net cash by selling through a Realtor and it will sell fast because it is such a low amount. In fact you may get multiple offers with the chance of selling at over the listing price. Not the end of story. I next receive a mailer from them for my house in AZ. The offer range in the mailer, in writing was $ 210,900-$ 245,100. This was not a low-​ball amount so I submitted again. Their offer this time was a full $ 15,000 below the range in their mailer. Here is my response to their offer: «Macy you wasted both our time. When you send out information with a offer range and then come in at $ 15,000 below that range it puts you in the category of scammers and untrustworthy. Couldn’t be more disappointed.»
So I see here on Unilocal there are only 1 star and 5 star reviews? What does that tell you? Are the 5 star people completely uninformed on the value of their property, or perhaps they work for Opendoor? FYI I would have taken the low number of the offer range in the mailer. Going to list with a Realtor at $ 195k and get more action and definitely make more than if accepting their offer.

Well unless your house is worth more than 125,000 don’t bother with open door! We wanted to see what’s out there maybe this place was worth trying it touts no hassle but what I gather is they really want your money and if your house ain’t worth it you aren’t worth their time. Say no thanks to open door

I heard about open door on the radio. The advertisement said get a quick offer at market value on your home. Sounded like it might be a good option to look at. I filled out the request for an offer. Got offer very next day, said they could close in 3 days at 40,000.00 below market value. FYI they want to keep about 9% in additional fees and provided home comparisons that were extremely slanted to favor the BELOW market value offer. Its to good to be true don’t waste your time I am embarrassed for even looking into it. I should have known better. They are a company in my opinion that preys on the miss-​fortune of others. Fortunately for me I am not in a huge rush to sell and can keep the hard earned equity in our home and not have to leave it to the bottom feeders.

OpenDoor made us a very fair offer, had all the «tools» (systems, staff and third parties like a home inspector) needed to move this process forward promptly and smoothly, and was instantly available to answer questions we had. And closing exactly 3 weeks from our first contact was amazing, and much appreciated. We have to add that Gabby Kozlowski of OpenDoor was personally instrumental for making all this happen so simply and efficiently, and was, whether by phone or e-​mail, always helpful, upbeat and enthusiastic. You have a very fine organization and program going with OpenDoor.

When I was told about Opendoor, I thought this might be a really quick solution to selling my rental home. The tenants had moved out, it needed some clean up and I was busy with other projects. It only took a few minutes to enter information about the home on their web site and they gave me a competitive market-​value offer within hours.
We accepted the offer and chose our closing date the following week. This was truly a smooth process and the interactions with their technology and their team of people was remarkable!
FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE! The home sold and recorded today!
