Questions About Our Process
How does the cash home buying process work?
Our process has three simple steps. First, you contact us and share basic details about your property. Second, we review your home and send you a fair cash offer within 24 hours. Third, if you accept, you pick a closing date that works for you and we handle the rest. There are no repairs, no agent fees, and no financing delays involved.
How fast can I sell my house?
We can close in as little as 7 days once we receive a signed purchase agreement. If you need more time, we can work with a 30, 45, or 60 day closing instead. The timeline is entirely yours to decide.
What happens after I submit my property details?
Our team reviews the information you provide, researches your local market, and prepares a fair cash offer within 24 hours. We then walk you through the offer so you understand exactly what you are receiving and why. There is no obligation to accept.
How do you determine the cash offer price?
Our offers are based on your property’s current condition, its location, and real market data from your area. We do not use vague formulas or lowball tactics. We aim to make a fair offer that reflects what your home is genuinely worth in its current state.
Can I choose my own closing date?
Yes. Once you accept the offer, you pick the closing date. Whether that is 7 days or 60 days from now, we work entirely around your schedule.
Questions About Your Property
Do I need to make repairs before selling?
No. We buy houses as-is, which means you do not need to fix, clean, update, or stage anything before selling. We handle all repairs after closing so you can move on without the extra cost or hassle.
What types of homes do you buy?
We buy all types of residential properties including single-family homes, condos, townhouses, multi-family units, inherited properties, rental properties, and vacant homes. We purchase properties in any condition across the United States.
Do you buy homes in bad condition?
Yes. Homes with foundation issues, roof damage, outdated systems, fire or water damage, or extensive repair needs are all properties we regularly purchase. The condition of your home does not disqualify it from a cash sale.
Can you buy a home with tenants in it?
Yes. We purchase tenant-occupied properties and handle the transition after closing. You do not need to manage the tenant situation yourself before selling.
What if my home has liens or title issues?
We have experience working with properties that have outstanding liens, title complications, or other legal challenges. Our team works with the appropriate professionals to navigate these issues so the sale can move forward smoothly.
Questions About Costs and Offers
Are there any fees or commissions?
None. There are no agent commissions, no closing costs, and no hidden fees. The cash offer we make is the exact amount you walk away with at closing.
Who pays closing costs?
We cover all closing costs. You will not be asked to pay anything out of pocket to complete the sale.
Is the cash offer negotiable?
We always aim to make our best offer upfront based on real market data. If you have questions about how we arrived at the number or feel something was missed, we are happy to have an honest conversation about it.
How is the offer different from market value?
A cash offer is typically slightly below full retail market value because you are trading the top dollar of the traditional market for speed, certainty, and convenience. No repairs, no agent fees, no months of waiting. For many homeowners that trade-off makes a lot of sense given their situation.
Will I get a fair price for my home?
Yes. We make competitive, data-driven offers that reflect your property’s real condition and current market factors. We are not in the business of lowballing homeowners. Our reputation is built on fair dealing and we intend to keep it that way.
Questions About Obligation and Next Steps
Is there any obligation when I request an offer?
None at all. Requesting a cash offer from us is completely free and comes with zero commitment. You are under no pressure to accept and can walk away at any point before signing a purchase agreement.
What if I change my mind after accepting?
We understand that circumstances change. If you have concerns after accepting an offer, reach out to our team as soon as possible and we will work with you to find the best path forward.
How do I get started?
Getting started is simple. Fill out our short online form with basic details about your property, or give us a call directly. We will take it from there and have a cash offer in your hands within 24 hours.
