Home Sale Expertise

The home sale of your relocating employee is often the most important aspect to a successful corporate relocation program. SIRVA has several options to ensure this aspect of the move doesn’t get in the way of hiring your most productive employees.

In the U.S., SIRVA’s home sale program options include our RiskGuard® fixed-fee products – which reduce your risk exposure – and our traditional home sale buyouts:

RiskGuard® Fixed-Fee Solutions

Stabilize costs, reduce risk and streamline paperwork with RiskGuard AVX and BVX fixed-fee solutions.

SIRVA’s RiskGuard programs offer a range of relocation services, including home sale and purchase, for a fixed fee that is known up front and will save time and money. Our RiskGuard solutions encompass the costs associated with home sales in a single fixed fee, including appraisals, home inspections, carrying costs, closing costs and losses on resale, when they occur. This creates a predictable cost structure that simplifies budgeting, and eliminates administrative headaches by consolidating multiple payments into a single invoice. SIRVA RiskGuard solutions offer your company unmatched risk mitigation.

Tell us your company budget, geography, transferee volume and mortgage needs, and we’ll customize a RiskGuard solution to fit.

Traditional Home Sales

Customize traditional home sales assistance to meet the needs of your business.

SIRVA also offers traditional home sales assistance designed to fit your company’s policy and your transferees’ needs. We provide the following conventional programs as alternatives to fixed-fee solutions:

• Appraised Value Option
  With this guaranteed buyout option, we order objective appraisals of the transferee's home and make a buyout offer on the property.
  
• Amended Value Sales
  Everybody wins when your employee, working with a qualified real estate agent, finds a bona-fide offer in the marketplace. We match the offer, buy the home on your behalf, close the deal with the outside buyer and the employee is free to move to the new location.
  
• Buyer Value Option
  This cost-conscious program eliminates the cost of appraisals and the upfront guaranteed offer. Instead, the employee and SIRVA Relocation markets the home until an outside buyer is found. As with the Amended Value sale, we match the offer, buy the home on your behalf, close the deal with the outside buyer and the employee is free to move to the new location.
