The Importance of Disclosure
In Maryland, sellers are required by law to disclose known material defects in their property. This includes even as-is sales. Failing to do so can lead to serious consequences, including legal action against you.
Selling Your House Fast vs. Waiting for Divorce Proceedings
While waiting for your divorce proceedings to conclude may seem like an option, it's often not the best choice. Maryland foreclosures can move from Notice of Intent to auction in as little as 90-120 days, and you'll want to avoid this timeline if possible.
What Maryland Homeowners Should Know First
Maryland requires the Seller's Disclosure and Disclaimer Statement for residential sales — even in as-is sales, known material defects must be disclosed. That matters no matter how you sell — to a cash buyer, through an agent, or on your own. Being upfront about the property's condition protects you legally and actually speeds up a cash sale, because investors price the repairs in from day one.
Maryland foreclosures are quasi-judicial and can move from Notice of Intent to auction in as little as 90-120 days, but homeowners can sell at any point before the auction. Timing is the single biggest lever you control. The earlier you explore your options, the more of them you have.
How a Cash Sale Actually Works
The process is simpler than most sellers expect: you share the property address and a few details, receive a written offer (usually within 24-48 hours), pick your own closing date, and sell completely as-is — no repairs, no cleaning, no showings, no agent commissions.
Maryland transfer and recordation taxes typically total 1.5-3% depending on the county; cash buyers like Parlevu often structure offers so sellers keep more at closing. A reputable buyer will walk you through the numbers line by line so you know exactly what you'll net at closing before you sign anything.
