Can I sell a Cadillac house as-is?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in the City of Cadillac and Wexford County, Michigan. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

How can market figures help you compare an as-is sale?

What are the practical ways to sell an as-is house?
List with an agent
Ask what it would take to list the house in its current condition. Compare any preparation or repair work, buyer access and showings, the costs in your listing agreement, and the bills you would carry while it is for sale.
Sell the house yourself
A for-sale-by-owner route puts marketing, buyer questions, showings, price discussions, and sale coordination in your hands. Compare the time and support those tasks may take with the terms of the other options.
A direct sale is another option when repairs, cleanout, or showings are difficult. Compare the written price and terms with the work and costs of listing or selling on your own.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
USA Home Buyers has two ways to buy. The Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations such as heavy repairs or tight timelines. EZ Sale is often a better fit when the house does not need major repairs and you want a higher number. Compare the written numbers and choose what works for you.

Could the Courthouse Hill historic district affect repair plans?
The City reviews some exterior projects in designated historic districts, including Courthouse Hill. Whether review applies depends on the address and project. We buy houses as-is, so you can compare a sale to us without first doing those repairs. See the Historic Districts Commission information and district map.
What costs should you compare before choosing?
For a listing, compare the preparation and repairs you choose, costs under your listing agreement, and the bills you would carry while the house is for sale. For a direct sale, compare its written price and terms with your payoff and other property obligations. A headline price alone does not show what you may keep.
For an ordinary taxable Michigan transfer, the state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of value, or part of $500. Wexford County’s rate is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. The seller is generally responsible under state law. State and county exemptions are separate, so the parcel, taxable value, and any exemption matter for the actual sale. See the Michigan state transfer-tax statutes and Michigan county transfer-tax statutes.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate from those closing costs.

What can you do next?
