Zillow Offers has expanded operations to Tucson, with the service is also available across Maricopa County in the Metro Phoenix area, where Zillow Offers first launched in April 2018.
A Zillow offer is free and comes with no obligations. Interested homeowners submit their address on the Zillow website or mobile app, answer a few basic questions about their home, and if eligible, receive a preliminary cash offer within about 48 hours. If the homeowner wants to continue with the offer, Zillow will perform a free, in-home evaluation.
Sellers who accept their Zillow offer can choose the close date that best fits their schedule, between seven and 90 days out. Nearly two-thirds of sellers are trying to buy a home at the same time1, so the ability to control the timing of the sale can significantly ease the stress of navigating the two transactions.
“There are so many stressful aspects of selling a home today, and we are giving sellers a different way to sell to avoid those,” said Zillow President Jeremy Wacksman. “With home shopping season just around the corner, Tucson homeowners can now shop confidently for a new home without worrying about how they will sell their current home.”
After buying a home, Zillow works with local contractors to make any necessary repairs to prepare the home for sale. These projects may include a fresh coat of paint, HVAC repairs or basic landscaping.
Tucson is the 23rd market where Zillow Offers is available. Zillow has also announced plans to bring Zillow Offers to Cincinnati, Jacksonville, Fla. and Oklahoma City in 2020.
