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.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Iowa real estate transfer tax. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
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.
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.

Local help for Pella sellers
Marion County lists Pella as a county community, and the City of Pella GIS depicts the city polygon intersecting Marion and Mahaska counties. The map is for orientation, not a parcel determination; check the actual parcel record and confirm which county office handles the address.
The City lists the Collegiate Neighborhood and Scholte Garden as local historic districts. For a property in one of them, work that requires a building permit needs Historic Preservation Commission review before the work. Check the address and proposed work with the City; a district name alone does not establish a property's status.
