Ways to sell when timing matters
List with an agent
A listing puts your house in front of buyers looking for a home. Before you decide, consider preparation and repairs, how you’ll handle showings, commissions, offer terms, and the bills you’ll keep paying while you wait. Compare what you might keep, not just the asking price.
Sell it yourself
If you sell without an agent, you handle the advertising, buyer visits, price discussions, and closing details—or hire help for the parts you don’t want to manage. Think about how much time those tasks would take.
Compare a direct sale
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. No agent commissions when you sell to us. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow. You can compare a direct offer with the work, timing, and costs of listing or selling it yourself.
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.

Madison details that can affect your selling plan
Madison has distinct neighborhoods such as Monroe Street, Atwood, Williamson-Marquette (often called Willy Street), and Capitol/Downtown. See Destination Madison's neighborhood guide or our Madison neighborhood page.
If the house is in a City of Madison local historic district, planned maintenance, repairs, or alterations may be subject to the City's guidance. We buy as-is, so you do not need to make repairs for us to consider the house. Read the City of Madison's local historic-district guidance.
Have a tenant in the house? You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone. Read our page on selling a tenant-occupied Madison house.
Wisconsin's transfer fee and what you keep
On a sale that isn't exempt, Wisconsin charges the seller 30 cents for every $100 of the sale price, or part of $100. The Wisconsin real estate transfer fee is collected when the deed is recorded; some transfers are exempt. When you sell to us, we pay the Wisconsin real estate transfer fee.
- Wisconsin Statutes, Chapter 77: transfer fee and exemptions
- Wisconsin Department of Revenue: Real Estate Transfer Fee report
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
