If you're considering a cash offer for your Phoenix home, what we're about to tell you could save you six figures.

We're Janet and Gabriela Avila—sisters, Arizona realtors, and interior designers. We've been buying homes in the Phoenix area for over 10 years. Acre Property Solutions has purchased over 1,500 properties across Maricopa County.

And we're sick of watching sellers get scammed.

Last week alone, we got three calls from homeowners who'd been burned by the same trick. Different buyers, same playbook:

The "Inspection Excuse" Is Stealing From Phoenix Sellers Every Single Day

Here's how it works:

Step 1: They make an aggressive offer. High enough to get your attention, get you to sign their contract, and stop you from talking to other buyers.

Step 2: Vague contract language. "Subject to inspection." "Pending walk-through." Sounds reasonable, right?

Step 3: They wait. Two or three weeks pass. You get emotionally invested. You make plans based on that number. You tell people it's done.

Step 4: They "find problems." Bring in an inspector. Take photos of things you already disclosed. Act surprised. Act concerned.

Step 5: The lowball. "We still want your house, but we can only pay what it's worth in this condition." They know you've wasted weeks. They're counting on you feeling desperate.

It's a hustle. And it's working because most sellers don't know to look for it.

Why Most Sellers Fall For It

You're not stupid. You're just trusting.

When someone offers you $450,000 for your house, you want to believe it's real. You need it to be real.

And these buyers know that. They're not inspecting your property—they're inspecting your desperation.

The red flags most sellers miss:

• They make an offer without asking detailed questions about your property's condition
• They refuse to provide proof of funds or closing timeline upfront
• Their contract has vague "inspection contingency" language with no specifics
• They can't (or won't) give you references from past sellers
• They avoid committing to a final number—everything is "up to" or "depending on"

If you see even one of these, run.

How Acre Property Solutions Does It Differently

We're not going to tell you we're perfect. But we will tell you we're honest.

When we make an offer, we mean it. Here's our process:

• We ask the hard questions upfront. Roof condition? Foundation? HVAC age? Plumbing issues? We don't wait until after you sign to "discover" these things.
• We look at the property first. Either in person or through detailed photos. We don't make blind offers.
• We give you our final number. Not a range. Not "up to." The actual cash amount we're prepared to pay. In writing.
• We don't renegotiate. Unless you lied about condition (which almost never happens), our number doesn't change. What we offer is what we pay.
• We provide proof immediately. Proof of funds, closing timeline, recent references. No games, no stalling.

The ONE Question That Separates Real Buyers From Pretenders

Before you accept any cash offer, ask this:

Watch their reaction.

A real buyer will say: "This is our final number, assuming the property is as you've described it."

A pretender will give you some version of: "Well, we need to see it first... we'll have to inspect... it depends on what we find..."

Translation: They're planning to lowball you later.
