In many instances, a homeowner needs to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/what-is-home-equity\/\">equity<\/a> from their existing home to buy their next residence.<\/p>\n<p>That can mean adding a home sale <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/what-does-contingent-mean-in-real-estate\/\">contingency<\/a> to their offer, which makes it weaker and less attractive to sellers, or finding temporary housing between transactions. Neither of these options are ideal.<\/p>\n<p>Seattle-based Flyhomes \u2014 alongside companies including HomeLight, Orchard, Knock, and Ribbon \u2014 is one company in real estate aiming to help people navigate this balancing act more smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>As you explore different real estate solutions out there, you may be curious to read up on Flyhomes reviews and how the solution compares to others available to you.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at Flyhomes\u2019 main offerings, as well as how the company has been reviewed by past customers.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"geo-cta widget-cta widget-cta--content     widget-cta--dark widget-cta--dark-blue-gradient\">\n    <div class=\"widget-element--content\">\n        <div class=\"widget-element--content-header\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"homelight logo\" class=\"widget-element--logo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/ccprototypev5\/images\/logo-small-cta.png\" width=\"106\" height=\"25\" \/>\n        <\/div>\n        \n                <h3 class=\"cta-headline widget--bold\">A quick (and free) way to check your home value<\/h3>\n                        <p class=\"p1\">Get a preliminary home value estimate in as little as two minutes.

A Flyhomes agent will help you develop strategies with financial tools, including their affiliate company, Flyhomes Mortgage, for a more competitive offer.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Finally, move into your new home while getting your old home ready to sell. Flyhomes guarantees that if your home doesn\u2019t sell within 120 days, they will provide an offer to buy it from you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Flyhomes\u2019 customers who use this program will typically incur a cost of $100-$200 per day between the time they move into their new home and finalize the sale of their old home. This covers the interest on the short-term loan, which is worth noting that Flyhomes does not make money on, and is akin to the costs you\u2019d incur for any short-term housing solution, but without the inconvenience of moving multiple times.<\/p>\n<p>The company also offers a <a href=\"https:\/\/flyhomes.com\/cash-offer\">cash offer product<\/a> for people who don\u2019t have an existing home to sell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See reviews, pros, and cons of Flyhomes, a home-trade-in company \u2014 as well as what you can expect from their service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":316,"featured_media":31138,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[702,319],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-offers-negotiations","category-selling-advice"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.0 (Yoast SEO v27.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Flyhomes Review &amp;
