Yes. Cash Flow Deals is a real Florida real estate investor. You choose between the Fast Cash Offer, where we buy your house as-is and close, and the Premium Cash Offer, where a pre-approved FHA or conventional buyer we already have, ready to go, pays more and buys directly from you. Your Premium sale runs through Silver Door Realty, LLC, a licensed Florida brokerage (Corp License CQ1064903), reviewed by agent Camilo Palacio, FL License #3280644. You can verify both license numbers directly on DBPR's MyFloridaLicense.com before signing anything. With Premium, title transfers once, directly from you to your buyer, and their lender funds the purchase.
| Factor | Traditional Listing | Cash Flow Deals |
|---|---|---|
| Timeline | Median 43 days to a signed contract in Florida (Realtor.com, 2026), then a separate financing and closing period. | You choose the Fast Cash Offer, where we buy as-is and close, or the Premium Cash Offer, where your real buyer buys directly from you and title transfers once. Confirm your chosen offer's written closing schedule rather than relying on the earlier 30-45 days estimate. |
| Repairs | Seller lists, negotiates repairs after every buyer's inspection, and re-prices under pressure mid-contract. | For your Fast Cash Offer or Premium Cash Offer, the number is agreed before any work starts, and it changes only if you agree. The one exception: if something structural surfaces that was not visible or disclosed before we signed — foundation issues, hidden moisture, old wiring, cast-iron drain failure — we re-cost it and bring the number back to you. You decide. You can walk away. We disclose what we know at offer time so this almost never happens. Your Premium sale runs through Silver Door Realty, a licensed Florida brokerage. |
| Fees / Costs | Commission negotiable post-2024 NAR settlement, seller sets what, if anything, they offer a buyer's agent. | On the Premium Cash Offer, Cash Flow Deals is paid as a separate line item on the closing statement. No listing commission to Cash Flow Deals on the Fast Cash Offer. |
How to Verify Cash Flow Deals Yourself
You can independently verify Cash Flow Deals' brokerage relationship before signing anything. Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a free public lookup at MyFloridaLicense.com, where you can search by name or license number to see license type, status, expiration date, and the brokerage on file. Searching Silver Door Realty, LLC returns Corp License CQ1064903 at 15800 Pines Blvd Ste 209, Pembroke Pines, FL 33027. Searching Camilo Palacio returns FL Real Estate License #3280644, listed as a REALTOR under NRDS #279584578, affiliated with Silver Door Realty. Checking both numbers directly on DBPR's site lets you verify the Florida brokerage relationship for yourself before you sign.
What 'Legit' Actually Means Here: One Title Transfer
With Cash Flow Deals, you choose between the Fast Cash Offer, where we buy your house as-is and close, and the Premium Cash Offer, where a pre-approved FHA or conventional buyer we already have, ready to go, pays more and buys directly from you. For Premium, you sign with us and give us permission to bring a buyer in our place. Your home may be listed through Silver Door Realty, a licensed Florida brokerage, with a licensed agent and scheduled showings. Your buyer signs a new contract directly with you, their lender funds the purchase, and title transfers once, directly from you to them. We manage the process and are paid as a separate line item on the closing statement.
Cash Flow Deals' Process, Step by Step
Your process with Cash Flow Deals: 1. Request your written offers at no cost and with no obligation to sign. 2. Compare your Fast Cash Offer, where we buy your house as-is and close, with your Premium Cash Offer, where a pre-approved FHA or conventional buyer we already have, ready to go, pays more and buys directly from you. You choose. The number is agreed before any work starts, and it changes only if you agree. The one exception: if something structural surfaces that was not visible or disclosed before we signed — foundation issues, hidden moisture, old wiring, cast-iron drain failure — we re-cost it and bring the number back to you. You decide. You can walk away. We disclose what we know at offer time so this almost never happens. 3. With Premium, only what your buyer's lender requires gets fixed. We cover repair costs, and we figure out a way, so nothing comes out of your pocket. Those costs are settled from the sale proceeds, from our share. With Fast Cash, you make no repairs. 4. With Premium, your buyer signs directly with you, their lender funds the purchase, and title transfers once at closing. If your buyer's loan falls through, that is our problem, not yours, and you can still take the Fast Cash Offer at its own number instead of the Premium Cash Offer. 5. With Premium, anything owed is paid first from the sale proceeds, you receive your agreed number subject to the structural exception above, and we are paid last from what remains, as a separate line item on the closing statement.
When Your Agreed Number Can Change
For your Fast Cash Offer or Premium Cash Offer, the number is agreed before any work starts, and it changes only if you agree. The one exception: if something structural surfaces that was not visible or disclosed before we signed — foundation issues, hidden moisture, old wiring, cast-iron drain failure — we re-cost it and bring the number back to you. You decide. You can walk away. We disclose what we know at offer time so this almost never happens. That can include foundation issues, hidden moisture, old wiring, or cast-iron drain failure. Cash Flow Deals does not renegotiate for normal wear and tear you disclosed at the walkthrough. We disclose what we know when you receive your offers so you can decide with that information in hand.
What a Legit Process Looks Like Compared to Red Flags
A legitimate investor in Florida should be able to name a licensed brokerage, a specific license number, and a specific reviewing agent, all checkable on DBPR's public site the same day a seller asks. Cash Flow Deals names all three: Silver Door Realty, LLC, Corp License CQ1064903, and agent Camilo Palacio, FL License #3280644. A company that will not name a brokerage, will not put a license number in writing, or asks a seller to sign before any of that is confirmed, is the pattern worth walking away from, in Florida or any other state.
