Frequently Asked Questions
We can close on your property in as little as 10 days. You will receive our cash offer within 24 hours of your request.
Absolutely not. Our offers are by no means obligated.
Yes, we especially buy homes that need repairs. One of the benefits of selling with us is that you won’t need to worry about the overwhelming cost of repairs to your home.
While we prefer that the property not be listed with an agent, in some cases we can make an arrangement. However, you may need to revoke the contract with your agent.
As a home buying company we generally don’t purchase homes at full market value. We invest time and money to renovate houses and make money once the house is back on the market. Our offer is based on the expected market value after full renovation, minus renovation time and costs. Benefits include: no realtor commissions, covered closing costs, cash offers, buying 'as-is', and quick closing.
We evaluate factors such as the current condition of your house, cost of repairs, renovation time, post-renovation value, real estate commissions, and holding costs. We subtract these from the projected value to determine the offer.
Absolutely not. We buy all kinds of real estate assets, including single-family residences, townhouses, duplexes, apartment complexes, and commercial properties.
