Compare the choices

Compare listing work with a direct as-is sale

List with an agent or sell on your own

A listing can fit when the house is ready to show and you have time to prepare it, arrange photos and showings, and work through inspections, buyer financing, and negotiations. Compare repair bids, cleanout, commissions, concessions, utilities, taxes, mortgage payments, and the bills you carry while you wait—not only the asking price.

Sell directly, as-is

We review the house in its current condition. You do not need to repair, clean, or clear it out to sell to us. Compare the written price and terms with the work, time, and costs you would otherwise take on.

What matters is what may remain after the costs and property obligations that apply to your house, not just the highest number shown first. A house ready to show may suit a listing; repairs, a tenant, an inherited owner, or a deadline may make another written option worth comparing.

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.

Useful local facts

Check the address and the county before you plan a sale

Permits, inspections, and vacant buildings

The City reviews building plans, issues permits, and inspects construction projects within Bartlesville. It also has a Voluntary Demolition Program for vacant, deteriorated buildings. We buy houses as-is; if a property has an open project or demolition question, we can consider its current condition, while the City can explain local requirements and program eligibility.

Closing questions

Check who can sign, costs, and any deadline

Inherited property: who can sign?

Yes. An Oklahoma house can be sold before probate is finished. The court-appointed executor or administrator may act, but the will and court file determine whether the sale needs court approval. A sale authorized by the will generally must be confirmed by the probate court before title passes, unless a specific exception applies. If the will does not authorize a sale, the executor or administrator generally must ask the district court for an order and give interested people notice. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Oklahoma documentary stamp tax and closing costs

Oklahoma documentary stamp tax applies when a deed conveying sold realty has consideration or value over $100. The rate is 75 cents for each $500 or fraction of $500 of consideration, excluding liens or encumbrances that remain on the property. State law can make more than one party responsible, so the seller is not always the only statutory payer. The closing agent confirms the amount and any exemption for the transfer.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Oklahoma documentary stamp tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Oklahoma Statutes, Title 68: documentary stamp tax

If an Oklahoma mortgage foreclosure sale is scheduled

Send us the notice and sale date immediately. Oklahoma has judicial foreclosure and a separate power-of-sale process when the mortgage grants that power. In the power-of-sale process, the notice of intent generally starts a 35-day period to cure; a separate sale notice is generally served and published at least 30 days before the sale. A homestead borrower may elect judicial foreclosure by timely notice at least 10 days before the power-of-sale auction. These power-of-sale deadlines do not replace the actual court file and order in a judicial foreclosure.

Who can sign for an inherited Oklahoma house?

Yes, an Oklahoma house can be sold before probate is finished. The court-appointed executor or administrator may act, but the will and court file determine whether the sale needs court approval. A sale authorized by the will generally must be confirmed by the probate court before title passes, unless a specific exception applies. If the will does not authorize a sale, the executor or administrator generally must ask the district court for an order. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Who pays Oklahoma documentary stamp tax?

Oklahoma documentary stamp tax applies to a deed conveying sold realty when consideration or value exceeds $100. The rate is 75 cents for each $500 or fraction of $500 of consideration, excluding the value of liens or encumbrances that remain on the property at the time of sale. The statute can apply to more than one party, so the seller is not always the only statutory payer; the closing agent confirms the amount and any exemption. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Oklahoma documentary stamp tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

What if a mortgage foreclosure sale is scheduled?

Send us the notice and sale date immediately. Oklahoma has judicial foreclosure and a separate power-of-sale process when the mortgage grants that power. For a power-of-sale foreclosure, the notice of intent generally gives the borrower 35 days to cure, followed by a separate sale notice generally served and published at least 30 days before sale. A homestead borrower may elect judicial foreclosure by timely notice at least 10 days before the power-of-sale auction. A judicial foreclosure follows its court file and order.
