The short answer

Compare the work, timing, and money left from each option

A listing may fit if the house is ready to show and you can manage preparation, showings, buyer questions, and waiting. A direct as-is sale gives you another written price and terms to compare before taking on that work. Use the house's actual condition, payoff, occupancy, and dates when you compare what you may keep.

Selling choices

Compare a direct as-is sale with listing your house

Direct as-is sale

You can compare written price and terms before taking on repairs, cleaning, or a cleanout. A direct sale may be worth considering when the house needs work, access is difficult, a tenant or estate is involved, or a deadline matters. Put the payoff, liens, taxes, occupancy, and timing beside the number you would keep.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You see the written offer and terms before you commit, and closing is through a title company.

Traditional listing

Listing may fit when the house is ready to show and you can manage preparation and waiting. Estimate likely repairs, cleanout, showings, inspection responses, commissions, utilities, insurance, taxes, mortgage payments, and the time before closing. Compare what remains after those costs, not just the expected sale price.

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.

Colorado deed documentary fee and closing costs

Colorado's state deed documentary fee is not charged when consideration is $500 or less. Above $500, it is 1¢ for each $100 or major fraction of consideration, including specified liens, charges, and conveyance expenses. By statute, the person offering the deed for recording pays the state fee; the contract may allocate reimbursement between the parties. County recording charges are separate, and any additional city or county charge depends on the property's location.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

2026 Colorado Revised Statutes §39-13-102 — deed documentary fee

If a public-trustee foreclosure is underway

For a non-agricultural Colorado public-trustee foreclosure, the initial auction date is 110–125 calendar days after the Notice of Election and Demand is recorded. An eligible owner must file written intent to cure no later than 15 calendar days before sale and pay the cure amount to the officer by noon the day before sale. Agricultural-property or sheriff cases have different timing. A sale contract does not itself stop the scheduled process. Keep following the scheduled date unless the Public Trustee confirms a change.

2026 Colorado Revised Statutes §§38-38-101, 38-38-104, 38-38-108(1)(a), and 38-38-109(1)(a)
