Experience buying houses
Our founder bought his first property in 2004 — more than 20 years of buying houses.

Your written offer and closing
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
We review the property details with you and put the offer and terms in writing. You can read them before deciding whether to continue.
We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the county documentary transfer tax and any city transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
Signing from another location
Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
Two ways to sell
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.
