Yes, you can sell a house as-is in Minnesota, but it doesn't let you skip disclosure, and it usually costs you some of your price. Mitch & Meghan, part of the Scrimgeour Group with eXp Realty, hear this question from sellers in Victoria and Chanhassen. Here's how an as-is sale works and when it makes sense.

Can I sell my house as-is in Victoria, MN?

Yes, you can sell your Victoria house as-is, which means you list it in its current condition and tell buyers up front that you won't make repairs. It's legal in Minnesota, and it works in any neighborhood, from Deer Run to Watermark. You still have to disclose what you know, and buyers can still inspect.

Do I still have to disclose problems if I sell as-is?

Yes, selling as-is doesn't change your disclosure duty in Minnesota. Before you sign a purchase agreement, state law requires you to give buyers a written disclosure of the material facts you know about that could significantly affect their use and enjoyment of the home. Our post on what Minnesota sellers have to disclose covers the details.

Can the buyer and I agree to skip the disclosure statement?

Yes, Minnesota lets a buyer and seller agree in writing to waive the written disclosure statement, and some buyers ask for that. The waiver doesn't cancel your other legal duties, so hiding a known problem can still come back on you after closing. Talk with a real estate attorney before you sign one.

Can a buyer still inspect an as-is house?

Yes, most buyers will still hire an inspector, even on an as-is listing. You've told them up front that you won't make repairs, so they use the inspection to decide whether to buy, not to build a repair list. Depending on how the purchase agreement is written, a buyer may still be able to back out after inspecting.

Will I get less money if I sell my house as-is?

Usually you will, since buyers price in the work they'll have to do. How much less depends on the house and what it needs. Victoria homes sold for 99.9% of their list price in August 2026, according to Redfin. Homes that need major work tend to draw fewer buyers and lower offers than that.

Should I sell as-is to a cash investor or list it on the open market?

Listing on the open market usually brings more money, while an investor offers speed and no showings. HomeLight says investors typically pay around 70% of what they estimate a home will be worth after repairs. On the open market, seller closing costs in our area run about half a percent of the price, on top of the commission.

When does selling as-is make sense in Victoria or Chanhassen?

It makes sense when the repairs would cost more time or money than you have, such as with an inherited home, a long-held rental, or a house that hasn't been updated in decades. It can also fit a downsizing move when you'd rather not take on projects first. Our moving up or downsizing page explains how we plan that move.

Is there a middle ground between as-is and a full fix-up?

Yes, and for many homes it's the better choice. You can sell without a repair promise but still handle a few low-cost things first, like a deep clean, fresh paint, and fixing anything that leaks or isn't safe. Our post on what to fix before selling walks through which projects are worth it.
