Who it's for

Homeowners with equity, a flexible timeline, and a property that can appeal to retail buyers or investors with the right preparation and exposure.

  • Pursue proceeds above a typical investor cash offer
  • Real Deal coordinates preparation, marketing and the professionals involved
  • Exposure to both retail buyers and investors where appropriate
  • You remain the owner until closing

Things to consider

  • No particular sale price is guaranteed
  • Timeline is typically longer than a direct purchase
  • Commissions, costs and any preparation are addressed in your agreement
  • Outcome depends on market conditions and buyer interest

The Process

How Equity Protection Works, Step by Step

1

Understand Your Goals

We learn what matters most — proceeds, timeline, condition — and review your property.

2

Structure the Partnership

We explain the alternative purchase structure and how the resale would be coordinated.

3

Coordinate and Market

Trusted local professionals and our network prepare and expose the property to qualified buyers.

4

Close and Settle

At closing, your proceeds are distributed per the signed agreement — and you keep more of your equity.

A hypothetical example

A homeowner with a well-maintained home and six months of flexibility chooses Equity Protection. Real Deal coordinates light prep and a local agent, exposing the home to retail buyers. It sells for meaningfully more than the investor cash offer, netting the seller more after costs. This example is illustrative only; no sale price is guaranteed.

FAQ

Equity Protection Questions

What is Equity Protection?
A program where Real Deal may partner with you through an alternative purchase structure and coordinate your property’s resale to pursue proceeds above a typical investor cash offer.
No. A cash offer is a direct purchase at an investor price. Equity Protection is structured to pursue a potentially higher outcome through coordinated resale.
Because the property is exposed to retail buyers and investors through coordinated preparation and marketing, rather than being purchased at a wholesale price. No specific amount is guaranteed.
You continue to hold title until closing under the applicable agreement.
It may be marketed through a trusted local real estate professional and our buyer network, depending on the structure we agree to.
Real Deal coordinates with trusted local professionals. We’ll discuss the agent relationship and any agency disclosures with you.
Yes — where appropriate, we expose the property to both retail buyers and our investor network to broaden interest.
Commissions, costs and any preparation are addressed in your signed agreement. We review every figure with you before you decide.
Property preparation may be coordinated when needed and when it supports the goal. We’ll discuss what makes sense.
Typically longer than a direct purchase — often several weeks to a few months — depending on preparation, marketing and market conditions.
Your signed agreement governs what happens, including any termination provisions. We’ll explain your rights and options before you sign anything.
Real Deal earns through the agreed transaction structure. We explain how we’re compensated before you commit.
No specific proceeds are guaranteed. Any minimum proceeds, rights and obligations are governed by the signed transaction documents.

Important disclosure

Equity Protection is not a guaranteed sale price and not a conventional listing agreement. Actual rights, obligations, minimum proceeds and termination provisions are governed by the signed transaction documents. Program availability varies by location.
