Compare the choices
A listing may fit a house you can prepare and show to retail buyers. Compare the likely proceeds after repair bids, cleanout, showings, commissions, concessions, payoff, taxes, utilities, insurance, and the time you may carry the house—not only the asking price.
We review the house in its current condition. No agent commissions when you sell to us. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow. Compare what you would keep with the work, costs, and timing of a listing.
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.
USA Home Buyers buys directly. 30 days or less. Lower price. No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.
Goes to one of our partners. 60 days or less. Higher price than the Cash Offer. Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs.
Compare the written numbers and choose what works best for you. The Marietta calculator lets you edit the listing assumptions for your house.

Useful local facts
A Marietta mailing address does not always mean the house is inside city limits, which can affect which local office handles a notice. We can review the property and any notice with you.
The City's plan links downtown across the Muskingum River to Harmar Village and describes older grid-pattern core areas, some with two- and three-family homes, alongside newer suburban-pattern streets. If your home has more than one unit, we can review its condition and current occupancy as-is.
The City plan identifies flood-hazard areas in downtown, Harmar Village, and sections along the Ohio River. If the house has had water problems, we can review it as-is; the City's flood information offers local map context.
Marietta's Property Maintenance page sends these questions to the Southeast Ohio Building Department. Its nuisance form lists concerns such as weeds, trash, and housing or structures. If you have a notice, we can review the house as-is; no repairs or cleanout are required to sell to us.

A listing may involve preparation, repairs, showings, commissions, concessions, and bills while you wait. A Cash Offer is a direct purchase by USA Home Buyers: 30 days or less, lower price, no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. EZ Sale goes to one of our partners: 60 days or less, a higher price than the Cash Offer, and still no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. Compare the written numbers and terms with the costs and work that apply to your house.
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. Keep using the date and instructions on the actual court papers and get prompt Ohio legal guidance; an agreement does not change a court deadline.
Ohio law sets a state conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 of the sale price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000. Ask the Washington County Auditor to confirm the amount for the transfer. Ohio conveyance fee: When you sell to us, we pay it. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Washington County Probate Division handles estate matters. For a sale, we work with the title company to identify the estate papers needed and can work alongside your attorney through closing.
The Southeast Ohio Building Department offers permit resources and an Existing Building Certificate of Occupancy application; that does not mean every sale needs a new certificate or inspection. If the house has an open notice, we can review it with you.
