Who we are and our experience
Our founder bought his first property in 2004 — more than 20 years of buying houses.
We've helped homeowners in just about every situation you can imagine — thousands of times. When you're working with someone, you want to know they've seen it before. We have.
Your written offer and closing
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
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.
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.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.
