Should I sell to a cash buyer or an investor to sell faster?

Only if the certainty is worth more to you than the price gap, since the Saskatchewan REALTORS Association's 1.63 months of supply figure means a well priced listing on the open market usually attracts enough genuine buyer interest to close in a similar window without giving up the difference.

A cash or investor buyer removes financing risk and an appraisal condition, which is real value if your timeline is measured in days rather than weeks. What it does not remove is the fact that their offer is built to leave room for their own resale profit, so the number starts lower before any negotiation begins.

A financed buyer working with a lawyer through the usual Information Services Corporation title process is typically only 2 to 4 weeks behind a cash close once an offer is accepted, which is a small time cost against a much larger price difference in most cases.

Run the actual numbers on your specific house before deciding, because the certainty is only worth paying for if the gap in price is genuinely justified by your timeline. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
