Some ”cash buyer” offered to buy my home without asking for any details or wanting to look at my property. He said he’ll send the purchase agreement via email immediately. Sounds like a scam…thoughts?

How much is he offering?

More than anyone else….

Easily could be some kind of scam—if you’re interested in selling, ask for the PSA and have a lawyer review it. The worst thing that could happen is you give him the deed and the wire transfer doesn’t “go through” — then you’ve conveyed the property, you don’t get the money, and he conveys it to someone else. Though I have heard of completely legitimate transaction like this happening in a hot market.

That’s typical for wholesalers, they usually give you 65-75% of fair market value only though
