Clever vs. "We Buy Houses" investors

What are We Buy Houses companies? Think road signs like “We Buy Ugly Houses” or “We Buy Houses for Cash.” It’s an umbrella term for real estate investors who buy below market value on properties that sellers need to move fast — then fix up and flip the home at a higher price to turn a major profit. 

Both Clever and We Buy Houses investors can help you sell your home faster and save money on commission. The difference? The sale price of your home. 

The We Buy Houses model is designed to help sellers in distress get rid of a property “as is” – for whatever reason, often unexpected life changes — and recoup quick cash in the process. 

But that convenience comes at a cost. When you sell to a We Buy Houses investor, expect your equity to take a hit — offers are routinely 30-50% below your home’s fair market value.

Don't let a matter of days cost you up to 50% of your home's equity.

Home-sellers who meet an agent through Clever get an offer in an average of 13 days. That’s almost a full month quicker than the national average. Get in touch today and you have the chance to sell your home for full value on approximately the same timeline as a We Buy Houses sale. 

If your situation isn’t desperate — and you’re interested in getting offers from multiple buyers to drive up your sale price — Clever can help you get the best possible value, while saving you thousands in real estate commission. 

All without sacrificing thousands more in the hard-earned equity you’ve built in your home.

Then you’ll get to speak with our licensed team of experts in five minutes or less. This gives you a chance to ask questions, share your personal goals (like how quickly you need to sell and why) and prioritize what you’re looking for in an agent.

TIP: Not a fan of phones? You can skip the phone call after you submit your info. We’ll match you with your first agent within an average of just one hour.

Enter your basic info to get started now.

We bring you agents from top brands and brokerages. Then we tailor our recommendations to match your needs, like agents with the best track record of fast home sales. The agents you’ll meet are willing to offer you a better rate because we bring them more business — without their usual upfront costs. Then they pass along that savings to you, while still offering their full suite of services.

We negotiate lower rates with top realtors.

By the time you talk to any agent, they’ve already agreed to sell your home at our pre-negotiated rate. We’ll start with just two or three agents, so you vet them for yourself and hit the ground running. If for any reason you’re not ready to move forward with the agents we recommend, we’ll send you new matches as soon as possible. Or if Clever isn’t for you, you can walk away. No pressure.

You sell fast and save thousands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Agents you meet through Clever follow a pre-negotiated commission model. On homes that sell for less than $350,000, you’ll pay a flat $3,000 listing commission — or a low 1% commission on homes that sell for $350,000 or more. 

That’s way less than the traditional fee for a full-service agent to list your home. The average listing fee is 2.5 to 3%. 

The more you sell for, the more you save. And since you’re still getting a top-rated, full-service real estate agent, you have a better chance of selling your home for top dollar.

NOTE: You should also expect to pay 2.5-3% to the buyer's agent. That's not a Clever thing. It's an industry-wide thing. The national average for total commission adds up to 5-6%. With Clever, you'll never have to pay a full 5-6% commission — but even that's a great value compared to the 30-50% you'd give up if you sold to a We Buy Houses company

How much can I save in commission with Clever?

Why would a top-rated, full-service realtor work with Clever and lower their rate?

We partner with top agents at major brands across the country, plus the best local brokerages. It gives full-service real estate agents the flexibility to meet customers who are looking for a discount (that's a lot of customers) — but without branding themselves as a discount agent (and not being able to charge full commission for the other customers they meet on their own). 

Clever also offers a more reliable, steady stream of new business, with zero upfront costs on their end. This saves them a ton of time and money — particularly when it comes to marketing themselves to new customers, which is close to 70% of their total expenses. 

We let realtors choose to work whenever it aligns with their own goals. And for as long as they live up to Clever’s standard of providing first-class, full-service agents. 

We’ve found agents are willing to negotiate rates for several reasons — to hit sales targets, to enter new markets, in response to the local housing market, or simply because fewer upfront costs means higher profits, even with the discount. It comes down to what makes the most business sense for them.

For agents, working with Clever means:

Yes. There’s zero obligation to sign with any agents we recommend. If at any point you’re not satisfied with the agents we recommend, we're happy to try again until we get it right.

Or if you change your mind and decide a cash buyer makes more sense for you, we can go our separate ways. No strings attached.

If I try Clever, can I still work with We Buy Houses investors or another cash buyer?

• A more consistent stream of business

• More signs in yards 

• More happy clients and referrals 

• More traditional business, too 

• All with zero upfront costs or marketing expenses

Most homebuyers are working with a buyer’s agent and that agent is expecting a commission. Not offering buyer’s agent commission can force the buyer to pay their agent out of pocket, which can limit their ability to purchase your home. It also disincentives the buyer’s agent from showing your home to their clients because they know they’ll net a lower commission than other homes in your area. It’s not ethical, but it happens.

Why do I still need to pay commission to the buyer's agent?

An easy, lower risk way to get a cash offer is through an iBuyer (online cash buyers, with instant cash offers). 

Clever partners with Opendoor — the nation’s leading iBuyers — to let you know if your home qualifies in seconds. 

Unlike traditional We Buy Houses companies and flippers, who operate on a buy-low-sell-high model, Opendoor pays fair prices for the homes it buys. You’ll get an initial cash offer within one to two business days, closing timelines are flexible — between 14 and 60 days, depending on your needs. 

In exchange for this service, you’ll pay a fee similar to what you’d pay with a traditional, full-service agent — the average fee is 6.4%. However, many sellers feel the fee is well worth the speed and convenience, especially when you consider that you won’t have to deal with showings, negotiations, inspections, repairs, etc.

TIP: Find out if your home qualifies for an offer in just a few clicks. There’s no harm in requesting an instant offer from Opendoor — it's free. And if it's less than you had in mind, you don't have to take it.

What if my home is in good shape, but I still want a cash offer?
