Our Home Buying Process

Our process is simple and straightforward:

  1. Contact us by phone or through our website form
  2. We'll schedule a time to view your property
  3. We'll present you with a no-obligation cash offer
  4. If you accept, we'll handle all the paperwork
  5. Close on your timeline and receive payment in cash

We can close in as little as 7 days or on your timeline. Unlike traditional buyers who need bank financing approval, we have cash ready and can close quickly.

No! We buy houses in as-is condition. You don't need to make any repairs, clean, or even remove unwanted items. We'll handle everything after the sale.

We purchase all types of residential properties including:

  • Single-family homes
  • Multi-family properties
  • Condos and townhouses
  • Vacant land
  • Commercial properties

We consider several factors when making an offer:

  • The current condition of the property
  • Necessary repairs or updates
  • Location and neighborhood comparables
  • Current real estate market conditions
  • Our costs to renovate and resell the property

Financial Questions

No. We don't charge any fees or commissions. The offer we make is what you get at closing. This amount is after paying off any mortgages or liens on the property.

We provide fair cash offers based on the property's condition and market factors. We need to buy homes at a lower price to pay for repairs and make a profit. But many sellers like our offers because we make selling easy, fast, and reliable.

In many cases, yes. However, when you list with an agent, you'll pay:

  • 5-6% in agent commissions
  • 1-2% in closing costs
  • Holding costs while your home sits on the market (mortgage, utilities, insurance)
  • Repair costs from inspection contingencies

Our cash offer factors in these savings and provides certainty of sale.

Selling Situations

People sell to us for many reasons:

  • Avoiding foreclosure
  • Inheriting an unwanted property
  • Relocating quickly for a job
  • Going through divorce
  • Dealing with problematic tenants
  • Owning a damaged or distressed property
  • Wanting to avoid the hassles of traditional selling

Yes. We specialize in helping homeowners avoid foreclosure. We can often close quickly enough to stop the foreclosure process and may be able to help preserve your credit.

Possibly. We have experience working with short sales and underwater mortgages. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.

Yes, we purchase properties with tenants in place. You don't need to evict tenants before selling to us.

The Closing Process

We work with reputable local title companies to handle the closing process. They prepare all necessary documents, conduct title searches, and facilitate the legal transfer of ownership.

We typically cover all standard closing costs.

Closing usually occurs at a local title company office. In some cases, we can arrange for mobile notaries to come to your location if you're unable to travel.

You'll need:

  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Social Security number
  • House keys, garage door openers, etc.
  • Any relevant property documents
  • Bank account information for wire transfers
