Have questions?

We've got answers.

  • It sounds too good to be true. What’s the catch?
    In most markets, sellers agree to pay a percentage of a home’s sale price to the buyer’s agent as commission for finding a buyer for their home. As the buyer’s agent, we take that commission and use it toward offering innovative solutions and all around team support throughout your home buying process.
  • Does Flyhomes charge a premium for using their services?
    No. We’re firm believers that homebuyers should be able to make a competitive offer without being charged a premium. View this pricing calculator from our affiliate, Flyhomes Mortgage, to see the estimated cost for buying with a Flyhomes Cash Offer or using Buy Before You Sell.
  • What homes can I buy using Flyhomes?
    Most single-family residences, townhomes, condominiums and investment properties located in our service areas: California, Washington, Texas, and Massachusetts. If you are outside of our service areas, feel free to reach out and we will do our best to connect you with an agent who can help you
  • Do I have to sign anything to start working with Flyhomes?
    Not as a buyer; however, as is industry standard, we’ll ask you to sign an exclusive agency agreement if you decide to list with us.
  • How will getting pre-underwritten affect my credit?
    Each hard inquiry, like a loan application, appears on your credit report for about two years. However, if multiple inquiries are done within a given window (usually 14 days) they may only count as one inquiry, minimizing the impact on your credit. Discover five common credit score myths
  • Do Flyhomes Agents solely rely on commissions?
    No. Our real estate agents’ pay isn’t tied to the traditional real estate commission model, as they receive a base salary, benefits and bonuses. Flyhomes, as a brokerage, collects a standard buyers’ or sellers’ agent commission, which goes toward operating costs.
  • When should I start thinking about getting a lender?
    As soon as possible. Doing so lets you know your budget and getting pre-approved by a lender can let sellers know you can afford their home. Learn more about the benefits of getting pre-underwritten.
  • How is the Flyhomes homebuying process different than the traditional process?
    The traditional process requires you to find and coordinate efforts between a Real Estate Agent, Mortgage Loan Officer, title company and escrow provider. With Flyhomes, we pair you with a dedicated Flymoes Partner Agent, backed by a team of experts. Additionally, if you are interested, Flyhomes’ affiliates can assist with other aspects of your homebuying transaction. Flyhomes Mortgage can provide you with the Flyhomes Cash Offer short-term loan, all under one umbrella In Washington and California, our affiliates Flyhomes Closing and Sailbridge Closing can also provide Title & Escrow services. For more information about Flyhomes and its affiliates, and costs associated with their services, please read this. You are not obligated or required to use any Flyhomes affiliates as part of your homebuying transaction. The Flyhomes family of businesses offer a suite of innovative products that the traditional homebuying process simply cannot provide. Your Real Estate agent, loan officer and title & escrow company will work together to walk you through each step of the homebuying process in a seamless and understandable way.
  • How is Flyhomes different from an iBuyer?
    Unlike an iBuyer, we’re not in the business of buying homes to make a profit. We’re in the business of helping people buy and sell homes for the best price. To do that, we offer innovative products for buyers and sellers backed by our dedication to client service. While our Buy Before You Sell program does offer an “option price” for which you can sell Flyhomes your home, our goal is to help you maximize the sale price to a traditional buyer and not sell to Flyhomes.
  • When can I talk to a Flymoes Partner Agent?
    When first contacting us, you’ll speak with a team member whose sole responsibility is to pair you with a Flymoes Partner Agent who best meets your needs and is an expert in your local market.
