Selling in Derby
Auction, traditional listing, or cash offer. We do all three here, so the advice you get is about your house and your timeline, not about the only tool we own.

Open bidding, a firm close date, and no listing commission at closing: the buyer pays a 10% premium that covers our side. Fits estates, unusual properties, and sellers who need certainty about timing.
How our auctions work →The classic path, run with actual sold data instead of a hopeful number. Fits when you have time and the home shows well. Commission is agreed in writing before you sign anything.
Start with an honest number →Speed and certainty in exchange for price. Daniel invests here too, so you will also get told when a cash offer is the wrong move for your situation.
See how the cash path works →One of the metro's largest and most established suburbs, southeast of Wichita, with strong retail and a wide range of homes.
It can. Derby's size and demand mean broad buyer interest, and an auction on a firm date can find the real market price, especially for unique or higher-end homes. We'll review your specific property and tell you straight whether auction or a traditional listing fits better.
Most of what sells here is established ranch and two-story homes, newer construction subdivisions, move-up and custom homes. Condition and updates move the number more than anything else, and we will tell you which fixes are worth the money before you spend it.
Want it in one sentence? Text VALUE to 316-364-7500 and we will give you a straight number for your Derby address, plus which of the three paths we would actually use.
A person runs your comps, not a formula. You get the number, the sales behind it, and an honest recommendation on auction versus listing. Usually same day.
Prefer to see the math yourself first? The net proceeds calculator shows what you would walk away with, no email required.
The median sold price in Derby over the last 90 days is $310,000, but a median is not your house. We pull comparable sales within about a mile of your address and adjust for square footage, condition, and updates, then show you the sales the number came from.
Recent Derby sales have taken a median of about 49 days from the day they were listed to the day they closed. That covers marketing, contract, and the closing period together. An auction runs to a set date instead: typically 30 to 45 days of marketing, then closing about 30 days after.

On a traditional listing, plan on commission (commonly around 6% split between both sides), title and closing costs, and any repairs or concessions you agree to. On a TurnKey auction there is no listing commission at closing: the buyer pays a 10% premium that covers our side, and your cost is a marketing budget agreed in writing up front.
