How we buy houses in Faribault

Start with the property and what you want to compare. Tell us what you know about its condition, access, occupancy, and timing. We review the house as-is and put the offer and terms in writing before you commit, with a title-company closing.

You can also list with an agent or choose another path. Compare the written amount and terms with the work, costs, and time a listing plan would involve for this house.

Compare the choices

Listing or a direct as-is sale

List with an agent or sell on your own

A listing puts the house in front of retail buyers and may bring a higher sale price. Plan for the preparation, repairs, photos, showings, inspection responses, possible concessions, selling costs, and time that fit your property. Compare what you might keep after those costs, not only the list price.

Ask us for a direct as-is offer

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Read the written amount and terms, then compare them with your payoff and the costs and work of listing.

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.

Local property context

Faribault and Rice County details

Older downtown properties

Faribault's Heritage Preservation District includes commercial and residential properties in the downtown area representing approximately the 1880s–1950s. That is age context, not a condition report for any one house. If your address is in the district, check the city's Historic Preservation information before making assumptions about property-specific questions.

Before you agree to a closing plan

Check signing authority, costs, occupancy, and dates

Who can sign?

Start with the ownership records and any estate or court papers. Ask the title company which people must sign and what documents it needs. If authority is unclear, ask a Minnesota attorney about the specific facts.

The Rice County Recorder is a starting point for county recording information.

Closing costs and taxes

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. This does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. Ask the title company to explain the property-specific figures and a tax professional about tax consequences for your circumstances.

For local property records and tax information, see the Rice County property values and taxes page.

Tenants, access, and possession

If someone rents or lives in the house, share the lease, access limits, and the possession details you want considered. Ask a Minnesota attorney about obligations under the actual agreement and your situation. The Faribault seller FAQs include more local questions.

Foreclosure or court dates

Use the date and instructions on the actual notice or court record, and contact the lender or office named there. Do not assume an offer request changes a deadline. For the Minnesota statute about postponing a foreclosure sale, see Minnesota Statutes section 580.07 and our Faribault foreclosure guide. Ask an attorney about your specific notice and dates.

What is the difference between Cash Offer and EZ Sale?

Who needs to sign when I sell?

Check the ownership records and any estate or court papers, then ask the title company which people and documents it needs for this sale. If authority to sign is unclear, ask a Minnesota attorney about your situation.

Which closing costs are paid when I sell to you?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. This does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes. Ask the title company to explain the figures for your property and a tax professional about tax consequences for your situation.

What if a tenant or a deadline is involved?

Tell us about the occupancy, lease, access, and any dates in written notices. For tenant obligations or a court or foreclosure deadline, get Minnesota legal guidance and confirm dates with the office named in the notice; do not assume that asking for an offer changes a deadline.
