FAQ

We buy houses with mold, fire damage, foundation problems, and other serious issues as is. Properties with major damage are actually a common situation for us, and our renovation team is set up to handle that type of work. You do not need to remediate or repair anything before we make an offer.

Unlike Opendoor and Offerpad, we buy houses in any condition, including properties that need significant repairs or have title complications. iBuyers typically require the home to be in near market ready condition and charge service fees that can reach 5 percent or more of the sale price. We charge no fees and do not have condition requirements, which makes us a practical option for houses the iBuyer platforms will not touch.

If your property is in one of these communities, we are actively buying there. Give us a call or submit your address to find out what we can offer.

We can still buy your house even if you are behind on payments or have received a foreclosure notice. As long as the sale closes before the bank finalizes the foreclosure, we can pay off the mortgage balance from the proceeds and stop the process. Time matters in these situations, so contact us as soon as possible to find out what your options are.

We are a direct buyer. We purchase houses with our own funds and our own team, then either renovate them to resell or hold them as long term rentals. When you accept our offer, the contract is with us, and the price you sign on is the price you receive at closing. We have the capital and the closing team in place to follow through on every offer we make.

We work with properties that have title complications, including tax liens, municipal liens, and estates going through probate. Our title team has handled these situations before and knows how to clear them on the way to closing. In most cases, outstanding balances are paid out of the sale proceeds so you do not need to bring cash to the table.

We buy tenant occupied properties and handle the tenant situation ourselves after closing. You do not need to evict anyone or wait for a lease to expire before selling to us. We will ask you for basic information about the current lease terms and rental history so we can plan accordingly.

You will typically receive an offer within hours of our walkthrough, or by the following day at the latest. We start with a short phone call to learn about your situation, then schedule a visit to the property at a time that works for you. We make our offer based on what we actually see, so you get a number we can stand behind.

We can close in as few as 7 to 10 days, or on whatever date works best for you. Because we are not moving into the property, we have no personal timeline pushing us. If you need extra time to move your belongings or settle your plans, we work around your schedule.

You do not have to make any repairs, clean anything out, or fix anything before we buy. We purchase houses in their current condition, including properties that are dated, damaged, or need significant work. If we hire an inspector during due diligence, that is for our own planning purposes and does not create a repair list for you.

Your only job is to show up at closing and sign the paperwork. We handle all coordination with the title company and take care of every document along the way. If you are still living in the property, you will need to move your belongings before closing, and we can connect you with resources to help if needed.

We renovate the properties we buy and either resell them or keep them as long term rentals. In some cases, we use them for short term rentals or work with buyers who need alternative financing arrangements. The use depends on the location, size, and condition of the specific property.

A cash offer removes the bank from the transaction, which eliminates the most common reasons deals fall apart. Lenders often refuse to finance properties that need repairs, and their loan approval process can add weeks of uncertainty to any sale. With a cash buyer, there is no financing contingency, so once you accept the offer, the deal is not dependent on someone else qualifying for a mortgage.

We make offers based on the finished resale value of the property minus the cost to renovate it. That formula means our offer reflects real numbers, not a lowball figure designed to pressure you. We are happy to walk you through exactly how we calculated your offer so you can compare it against your other options.

We charge no fees, no commissions, and no closing costs to the seller. The number in our offer is the number you receive at closing. On a traditional sale, agent commissions alone typically run around 6 percent of the sale price, plus closing costs and any repair credits a buyer requests.

Your offer amount depends on the location, size, condition, finishes, and recent comparable sales in your area. We also factor in what we plan to do with the property after purchase. Once we have seen the house, we can give you a specific number and explain each piece of how we arrived at it.

We are the buyer, not a listing agent. A real estate agent puts your house on the market and hopes another buyer makes an offer, while we make the offer ourselves and purchase the property directly. You skip showings, open houses, price negotiations, and the uncertainty of waiting to see if a buyer’s financing comes through.
