How to Sell Your House Fast in Omaha: 4 Easy Steps

Need to sell your Omaha home fast for cash? Helling Homebuyers makes the process simple with a quick home assessment and a fair cash offer that doesn’t devalue your home.

If you want to take an accelerated approach to selling your house for cash, working with our company is just the solution you need. We’ll help you determine your home’s current value to come up with an as-is cash offer, making the selling process as simple and hassle-free as possible.

Skip the frustrating and expensive process of renovating, listing with an agent, waiting for offers, deals that fall through, and complex buyer contingencies when you sell your home to us and pocket the cash in just 7-14 days. 

We’ll walk you through what to expect when you sell your home to us, talk about how working with us differs from traditional listings, and explain the easy 4-step process of getting a real cash offer on your home. 

Step 1: Tell Us About Your House

Get the process started by telling us a little about your home with our short online contact form. We’re not looking for a lot of details yet — just your address, a phone number where we can reach you, and your email address. 

We’ll be in touch quickly to gather a little more info about the condition of your home, find out how fast you need to sell, and set up a convenient time to visit your property for a short walk-through. 

We’re all about making this process as easy and practical as possible for you, so we’ll work with your timeline and schedule. 

Keep in mind that we buy houses in any condition in Omaha and the surrounding areas (Blair, La Vista, Papillion, etc), and even if your home needs a lot of work, we’re still interested in buying it, so don’t be shy about reaching out — we’d love to hear from you regardless of your situation.

Step 2: Meeting and House Inspection

We want to make you a fair cash offer, so the next step is dropping by to meet you and do a quick home inspection 1-2 days after you submit your contact form. Need us to come by sooner? We can make it happen! 

The walk-through home inspection takes 10-20 minutes, scheduled on a day and time that works for you. This is a great time to ask any questions you might have about selling your home for cash and point out any special considerations — issues, recent renovations, or notable home features — for your property. 

While meeting you in person allows us to make the best and most accurate offer, in some cases we can arrange a virtual tour using FaceTime or have you send us pictures of the property.

Once we wrap up the home inspection, you’ll get a fair cash offer from us within 24 hours. In some cases, we might be able to give you an offer during our visit! 

Step 3: Get Your Cash Offer

With an idea of the condition and current value of your home to work with, we’ll send you a straightforward cash offer within 24 hours. There’s no waiting around or letting your home languish on the market for weeks or months when you sell your home to us. 

Once you get your cash offer, the ball’s in your court! You can accept it and pocket the cash right away, hit pause on selling for now, or go with the traditional listing and selling process through an agent. 

We’ll never send you an offer that doesn’t take your home’s current value into account or pressure you to sell. We’re just giving you a fair cash offer to consider so you can sidestep the headache of listing and selling your home. 

Step 4: Close When You Want

We pride ourselves on making the cash home sale process convenient for you, so if you decide to accept our offer, closing happens on your timeline. We’re flexible, so you can choose to close when it works best for you. 

If your goal is to close as soon as possible, we’ll make it happen. Need a little more time to get your ducks in a row? We’ve got you covered. 

After you’ve accepted our offer, tell us a date and time that works for you to close. We’ll meet up at a local title company, sign some paperwork, and you’ll pocket the cash on the same day. We mean it when we say the process is simple, speedy, and straightforward!

How We Make a Fair Cash Offer

After we gather some info on your home and do a quick walk-through, how do we come up with a fair offer amount? 

We use a valuation formula that takes your home’s current market value, estimated repair costs, and recent sale prices of comparable properties in your neighborhood into account to determine how much cash we can offer for your home.

Here’s a closer look at how we come up with a cash offer after inspecting your home:

After Repair Value

What your home is worth after repairs.

Minus Repair Costs

What it’ll take to get your home in tip-top shape.

Minus Minimum Profit

What we’ll need to earn to cover the cost of our time.

Equals Your Offer

The ARV minus all repairs, carrying costs, and profit.


Here’s a detailed look at what each of these items means:

  • After Repair Value (ARV): We look at comps, or recently sold neighboring properties in Omaha similar to yours, to get an idea of how much move-in ready homes in your area are fetching in the current market. This gives us a ballpark idea of your home’s ARV and tells us how much we can expect to sell the property for after making any needed repairs and updates. 
  • Estimating Our Costs: If your home is in need of renovations or repairs, we’ll foot the bill. Estimating how much those updates and fixes will cost (along with covering property taxes and utilities until we’ve got it ready to sell) helps us make a more accurate estimate of how much we can offer you in cash for your home. 
  • Minimum Profit: We don’t send puny offers to try to make huge profits — we’re more successful when our offers are high enough to be fair and equitable for both parties. It’s how we keep our business going and get sellers excited about working with us.  
  • Calculating the Offer: We subtract our estimated repair costs from the estimated After Repair Value (ARV) we can sell your home for, leaving room for a low profit margin to accurately calculate our official cash offer to you. Here’s our simple offer formula: Home ARV – repair costs – small profit margin = Your cash offer.

A Real-Life Example

Let’s take a look at a real-life example to show you how the process of selling your home to Helling Homebuyers for cash works. 

You’re ready to sell your 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, but your kitchen and bathrooms are pretty outdated and the house needs a few repairs. Your neighbors just sold their similar 3-bed, 2-bath home for $250,000 after putting in a modern kitchen, concrete patio, and all-new bathroom fixtures. 

The recently-sold neighboring home price of $250K gives us an idea of the After Repair Value (ARV) your home could fetch if similar updates and renovations were made.

But first, we’ve got to invest some cash to buy your home and make the needed repairs and renovations before we can list the house near the price your neighbors sold for. 

In this scenario, we might send you a cash offer of $160,000 to purchase your home as-is, ready to invest $40k-$60K more to renovate and get it ready to sell near the ARV.

While the offer is $90,000 less than what your neighbors’ updated home sold for, you won’t have to invest an additional $60K for renovations, wait months to fix it up before selling, or pay a real estate agent a hefty commission (around 8% of the sale price — $20,000 in this case). 

Here’s a comparison of how the costs and final sale price break down if you handle the renovations and repairs yourself to sell with an agent:

  • Estimated ARV (potential sale price): $250,000
  • Concrete patio addition: -$10,000
  • Renovated kitchen: -$15,000
  • New bathroom fixtures: -$10,000
  • Painting: -$5,000
  • Agent commission (8%): -$20,000
  • Final value (ARV – $60K in repairs/commission): $190,000

While you could make $30,000 more than our cash offer of $160,000 by taking on the costs and time to renovate your home before selling with an agent in hopes of fetching around $250,000, you’re investing a lot of time, money, and hassle to keep an extra $30K out of the sale. 

Plus, there’s always the possibility that a buyer’s home inspection turns up a serious issue that leads to more costly repairs, buyer appraisal contingencies pop up during the closing process, your buyer’s mortgage approval is denied, offers come in low, or renovations end up taking more time than estimated. 

In this case, skipping the renovation and traditional sales process to sell your home to Helling Homebuyers for $160,000 cash in 7-14 days is the best choice. You’ll be able to sell fast for a fair price and avoid the hassle of repairing, listing, and waiting for top-dollar offers.

Selling your home — often your biggest investment — doesn’t have to be stressful, costly, or time-consuming. If you want to sell your house fast for cash without worrying about renovations or repairs, we can help.

Don’t worry about finding an agent, shelling out tens of thousands for remodeling, or waiting around for offers only to have the deal fall through. Send us your contact info and get your cash offer in just 24 hours after our no-hassle walk-through! 

If you’ve got the extra cash and trusted contractors in mind to handle the repairs, a flexible timeline to work with an agent to list your home, and want top dollar for your home, you can always list with an agent. 

But if you’re open to a cash offer or just want to see how much you can get for your home as-is, get in touch with us. If our offer isn’t what you’re looking for, you’ll still have a clearer idea of what your home may be worth and can use an agent to list if that works best for you.
