Frequently Asked Questions
Maybe you have a few questions about our process for buying homes in Wilmington and throughout New Castle and Kent counties. Here is a quick collection of some of the questions people have asked us over the years, along with our answers. If you still have a question, please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime. We would love to chat about who we are and why we love doing what we do!
Q: Will you be listing my house on the MLS or actually buying it?
A: At Rock Solid R/E Solutions, we’re not agents and we don’t list houses. We are professional home buyers. We buy houses in DE that meet our purchasing criteria. Once we purchase a home or rental property, we may repair the house and resell it to another homeowner or keep it as a rental ourselves.
Q: Do you pay fair prices for properties?
A: Our process is 100% transparent. In most cases, the houses we purchase are below market value so we can resell them at a profit to another homeowner. We are looking to get a fair discount on a property, but we also offer our clients all-cash for their homes and we can close very quickly because we don’t need to rely on traditional bank financing. Best of all, you won’t have to put any extra time, effort, or expense into the property or pay agent fees. If this sounds like what you’ve been looking for and you see the value in getting your house sold fast, give us a call today and let’s see if we can come to a fair price that’s a big win for both parties. Our no-obligation pricing commitment means that you don’t have to move forward with the offer we present you, but it’s good to know what we’re offering!

Q: How do you determine the price to offer on my house?
A: Our team looks at the location of the property, what repairs are needed, the current condition of the property, and values of comparable houses recently sold in the area. Taking all of this information into consideration, we come up with a fair price that works for us and we hope will work for you, too.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions to work with you?
A: This is what makes us stand out from the traditional method of selling your house: there are NO fees or commissions when you sell your house directly to us. We will make you a fair cash offer and, if it’s a fit, then we can buy your house in as little as 7 days (or on your schedule). We make our money after we pay for repairs on the house (if any) and sell it at a later date. Once we buy the house from you, the responsibility is ours and you walk away without the burden of the property and its payments, as well as cash in your hand.
Q: How are you different from a real estate agent?
A: Local agents list Wilmington area homes and hope that someone will buy them. The agent shows the properties to prospective buyers, and then take a percentage of the sale price if they find a buyer. Oftentimes, the agent’s commission is 3 to 6% of the sale price of your house (so if it’s a $100,000 house, you’ll pay between $3,000 – $6,000 in commissions to an agent). Agents provide a great service for those that can wait months to sell and who don’t mind giving up some of that sale price to pay for the commissions and closing costs, but that’s where we’re different. We’re not agents, we’re home buyers. Our company buys houses directly from the homeowner. And, since we’re actually buying the house directly from you and we pay with all cash, we can make a decision to buy your house fast and without needing to worry about inspections and appraisals. We make our living by taking the risk to buy the house with our own cash, repair it, and then market it ourselves to find a buyer.
Q: Is there any obligation when I submit my information?
A: There is absolutely zero obligation for you. Tell us a bit about your property and we’ll take a look at things, maybe set up a call with you to find out a bit more, and – if your home qualifies – make you a fair all-cash offer. From there, it’s 100% your decision on whether or not you’d like to sell your house to us. We will never hassle you or harass you. We want you to decide what’s right for you.
