With 20 years of experience, she\u2019s seen homes sold in almost every condition. She says when homeowners in Georgia choose to sell as-is, it\u2019s typically because they don\u2019t want to \u2014 or can\u2019t afford to<\/a> \u2014 make any repairs to the house or property.<\/p>\n

What is as-is condition in real estate?<\/h2>\n

As-is is a type of home sale where it\u2019s understood that no improvements will be made to the property. When selling a house as-is, the seller is choosing not to entertain requests from buyers to complete repairs or provide a credit for fixes.<\/p>\n

An as-is sale may also indicate that the functionality and longevity of certain home components, such as a stove on its last legs or an older roof, are not guaranteed.<\/p>\n

When selling a house as-is, the general condition of the property should already be accounted for in the purchase price of the home to the best of the seller\u2019s knowledge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
