Offer and closing
What happens before you sell
1. Tell us about the house
Share the address and what you know about its condition, occupancy, and timing.
2. Review the written offer
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
3. Close through a title company
If you choose to continue, the title company handles the 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, including Delaware's state realty transfer tax and Wilmington's real property transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare the written numbers for your Wilmington property and choose the option that works for you.
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.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Here's what sellers in Wilmington have said about working with us.
“After losing my job at ChristianaCare, I fell three months behind on my mortgage. The lender filed a complaint in NCC Superior Court — I had no idea Delaware foreclosure moved that fast. USA Home Buyers explained the judicial timeline, made a written offer the next morning, and we closed before the case progressed. I walked away with $38,000 instead of nothing.”
“The row home on Lancaster Avenue had foundation cracks that had been moving. We called an engineer and they said the back wall had shifted two inches and needed shoring — $48,000 estimate. No bank would finance a buyer with a structural issue like that. USA Home Buyers came out, made an offer two days later. Closed in thirteen days.”
“Seventy-one years old and my husband is in a nursing facility on Foulk Road. I needed to sell the house to cover his care costs. The whole situation is hard enough without adding a six-month listing process. USA Home Buyers were understanding and quick. Offer in twenty-four hours, closed in eight days.”
