What should I expect during the QuickBuy® offer process?Once your home qualifies for a no-obligation QuickBuy® offer, your Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty agent will view the property and answer any questions you may have. The offer will be made within two business days, and once accepted, a home inspection and closing will follow. If the offer is not accepted, your agent will present other home sale solutions.
-

-
What are the advantages of QuickBuy®?The certainty that your home is sold, especially in an uncertain market.
