Selling Resources - iBuyers and Alternatives
Opendoor is not the only way to sell quickly or conveniently. Florida sellers today have several alternatives — each with different tradeoffs around speed, price, and control.
Big picture: Opendoor optimizes for convenience. Most alternatives optimize for either higher net proceeds, more control, or both.
Some sellers compare multiple iBuyers or local cash investors to see who offers the highest price. These options share a similar model: fast closings in exchange for lower prices and added deductions.
This route can work when certainty and speed matter more than maximizing value.
Listing on the open market exposes your home to the widest pool of buyers. This is usually how sellers maximize price, especially in strong markets.
The tradeoff is time, showings, and traditional commission structures.
YELLOW is designed for sellers who want the control and pricing benefits of a market sale without defaulting to traditional Realtor fees. You sell directly to buyers — not to a company planning to flip your home.
The result is often a faster sale than a traditional listing — without the steep discounts typical of iBuyers.
| Option | Speed | Net Proceeds | Transparency | Control |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opendoor / iBuyer | Very fast | Lower | Limited | Low |
| Traditional listing | Variable | Higher | High | Medium |
| YELLOW | Fast | Higher | High | High |
