Listing, Cash Offer, or EZ Sale?
A traditional listing may fit when the house is ready to show and you can take on preparation, showings, inspections, buyer financing, and the time involved. Compare the likely sale price after agreed commissions, repairs, concessions, utilities, taxes, and other carrying costs—not only the asking price.
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.
EZ Sale
Goes to one of our partners. 60 days or less. Higher price than the Cash Offer. Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.
Put the written numbers beside your payoff, property taxes, repair and cleanout costs, and expected listing expenses. The calculator lets you change its assumptions and compare what you might keep.

Local details
Chillicothe places and repair questions
We review the actual address and condition rather than assuming a neighborhood name tells us a house’s value.
Historic First Capital District and Chillicothe Manor
The City places Yoctangee Park next to the Historic First Capital District, and Manor Park in the Chillicothe Manor subdivision off North Bridge Street. We review the home itself and your timing, not just the neighborhood label.
Repairs and the City Land Bank
The City Land Bank describes rehabilitation work on properties that can be saved. If repairs are a concern, we buy houses as-is; no repairs, cleaning, or cleanout are required to sell to us.
Before setting a closing plan
Check signing authority, costs, occupancy, and deadlines
Who can sign?
Start with the recorded ownership and any estate or court papers. Ask the title company to identify the required signers for this property; an estate or court-authority question may also need Ross County Probate Court or an attorney.
What will I keep after costs?
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells. When you sell to us, we pay it. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. The Ross County Auditor handles county conveyance-fee and property-tax questions; the Ross County Recorder handles deed recording. The title company confirms the property-specific settlement items.
What if tenants live there?
Share the lease, occupancy, access limits, and any notices or court papers. Do not assume a sale changes a tenant’s rights or possession date; have an Ohio attorney or title company review the plan for this property.
What if a deadline is close?
For foreclosure, tax, or court dates, use the current lender, court, or Sheriff notice and verify it with the issuing office or an attorney. A buyer conversation does not replace an official deadline.
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.
Where to check local records
Start with the office that handles the question for the property. These links are official starting points, not a substitute for checking the current record or notice.
Conveyance fee and property-tax questions
Recorded documents
Estate and probate questions

Questions Chillicothe sellers ask
Can I sell my Chillicothe house as-is?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can read the written offer and terms before you commit.
How soon can I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Who needs to sign if the house is inherited or jointly owned?
It depends on the recorded ownership and any estate or court papers. Ask the title company to identify the required signers for this property; for an estate or court-authority question, check with Ross County Probate Court or your attorney.
What will I keep after property-specific costs?
The title company can show the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, and other property-specific settlement items. Ask a tax professional about your income-tax situation.
Can I sell a tenant-occupied house?
We can review a tenant-occupied property. Share the lease, occupancy, access limits, and any notices or court papers; do not assume that a sale changes a tenant’s rights or possession date. Have an Ohio attorney or title company review the plan for the property.
What if a foreclosure, tax, or court deadline is coming up?
Use the current notice from the lender, court, or Sheriff and verify the date with that office or an attorney. A buyer conversation does not replace an official deadline. See the Ohio seller guide for longer state-level information.
Can I sell before an Ohio sheriff's sale?
Yes. Ohio mortgage foreclosures go through the court. You can generally still stop the sale before the judge confirms it—even after the auction—by depositing the full judgment amount, costs and applicable interest with the court clerk (Ohio Rev. Code §2329.33). Selling first may help protect any equity you have. Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.
