ZHOME (www.zhomeusa.com) has added yet another dimension to its home-buying service with its EZ Trade Up Program, which is geared to assist new home builders and their customers that need to sell their home to purchase a brand-new home. William Lyon Homes has adopted the service at several of its communities, according to the company.

“With the rapid growth in home values in recent years there are countless homeowners with considerable equity that would like to purchase a brand-new home but need to unlock their equity first by selling their existing home. ZHOME can offer these and other new home buyers a hassle-free way to sell their current home and close on their new home simultaneously,” said Dave Ewell, Operations Manager for ZHOME.

The EZ Trade Up Program allows homeowners to log online to the ZHOME website and answer a few questions about their current home. Within 24 hours a competitive all cash offer will be delivered to the homeowner. If the offer is accepted the homeowner will be able to select a closing date to coincide with the completion date of their brand-new home, skipping all of the headaches associated with the traditional listing and selling process. Or, as the company puts it, “No showings, no open houses, no appraisals, no escrow fallouts, no hassle.”
