Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Your choices include listing with an agent, selling the house yourself, or comparing our direct Cash Offer with EZ Sale through one of our partners. Each path has a different mix of preparation, time, price, and costs. Compare the written numbers and terms with the work you are willing to take on.
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 local details matter if the house needs work?
Putnam County's Planning & Building page describes permits, inspections, unsafe-building, and code-violation functions within its stated jurisdictions. If a notice or repair question affects your sale choice, check which office covers the property's address before relying on a county process. The county's service description does not say whether a particular house has a violation or what repairs it needs. Read the Putnam County Planning & Building page and see our Greencastle page about code notices and serious repairs.
The market measures above describe Greencastle, not every property in Putnam County. Use the address, current condition, and any property-specific notice when comparing a sale path; a citywide figure cannot tell you what one house needs or what you would keep from its sale.
What costs and complications should I compare?
For a listing or a sale you manage yourself, put the preparation and repairs you choose, selling expenses, and the cost of carrying the house alongside the expected sale price. With us, compare the written price and terms against your payoff and any other property obligations. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
Compare what you might keep, not just the headline price. Use the Greencastle home-sale net-proceeds calculator to compare editable planning assumptions for listing and an as-is sale. Its result is an estimate, not an offer for your particular house.
If a lien or a code notice is the issue driving your choice, see the Greencastle property-lien resource or the code-notice page above for questions specific to that situation.
What can I do next?
Share the address, what needs work, whether anyone lives there, and what timing matters to you. We buy houses as-is in Greencastle and Putnam County; you do not need to repair, clean, or clear out the house to sell to us.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Call 888-274-5006 with a question, or use the form above to ask for a cash offer.
