What is an ibuyer?
An iBuyer, or instant buyer, is a company that will purchase a home quickly for a price that's mainly determined by algorithms. Sometimes they will offer you a range through an automated valuation model (AVM) and then adjust the offer once seeing your property in person. Other times they will agree to a price without stepping foot on your property.
There's no one way all iBuyers work, but most all of them plug their services as a way to sell your home quickly and without the hassles of showings.
The concept of an iBuyer is a relatively new one. Looking at search data for the term, you can see that interest was flat at the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017. It wasn't until the spring of 2017 that searches for the term, "iBuyer" began to increase. For 2019, the interest in the term has risen to its highest levels.
