Compare your choices
Listing or selling directly as-is
A direct as-is sale
You can compare a written offer without first repairing, cleaning, or clearing out the house. Put the written terms alongside your payoff, property taxes, other costs, occupancy, and preferred timing to see what you would keep.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Cash Offer and EZ Sale work differently. Compare the written numbers, work, timing, and what you keep before deciding which option fits.
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.

Answers for Hailey sellers
Who can sign for an inherited Hailey house?
Usually, the personal representative—the person appointed by the court to handle the estate—can sign. That authority begins when the person is appointed. Unless the will or a court order in a formal case limits it, an Idaho personal representative may sell estate land at a public or private sale without a separate court order. A qualifying small-estate affidavit for personal property does not transfer a house.
Can I sell before an Idaho trustee’s sale?
Often, yes, if a sale can close before the trustee's sale. For an Idaho deed-of-trust foreclosure, the trustee's sale cannot happen until at least 120 days after the notice of sale is mailed. You can usually reinstate within 115 days after the notice of default is recorded by paying the overdue amount and allowed costs and fees. After a trustee's sale, there is no right to redeem; a court foreclosure follows separate redemption rules. If a trustee's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
What Idaho selling costs and property taxes should I compare?
Idaho has no state real estate transfer tax, but recording a deed carries a county fee. Property-tax bills are mailed in November; payment is due December 20, or half by December 20 and the rest by June 20 of the next year. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
