Experience buying houses
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
Step 1
Tell us about the house
Share the address, condition, and what is happening with the property.
Step 2
Review the written offer
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
Step 3
Decide whether to proceed
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.
Closing costs
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.

Seller experiences
Testimonials are real, from our transactions, verified and approved by our attorneys. These company-wide experiences are from Harrisburg, PA and Manchester, NH, not Lake Charles transactions. Each seller's actual town stays with the quote; Lake Charles and Calcasieu Parish sellers are welcome.
“I had a tenant in my rental on Green Street who stopped paying rent and wouldn't leave. USA Home Buyers bought the property with the tenant still in it. That was it. Done.”
“I inherited a three-unit on Bridge Street that I had no interest in managing. Two of the units needed serious work. USA Home Buyers bought the whole thing as-is, tenants and all. That was it.”
Lake Charles tools and local starting points
The City of Lake Charles Map Information Services provides FEMA flood-map information and accepts requests for a written Flood Zone Verification Letter for an address within the city. Ask the City about the exact property; this page does not determine a home's flood zone.
