The short answer

Compare an as-is offer with the work and costs of listing

Tell us the property address, what needs work, who lives there, and the timing you have in mind. Compare the written terms with the preparation, costs, and time involved in a listing; you choose what fits.

Compare your choices

Listing or a direct sale

List with an agent or sell it yourself

A listing may fit if the house is ready to show and you have time for preparation and buyer visits. Compare repair and cleanout costs, photos, showings, inspection requests, commissions, concessions, utilities, insurance, taxes, mortgage payments, and time to settlement. Ask what you may keep after costs, not only what the house might sell for.

Compare a direct as-is sale

You can compare written price and terms before deciding, without first preparing the house for a listing. Include the mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, and any costs that apply to this property.

Keeping the house while you make a repair, rental, or family decision is another option. Compare the cost of waiting with the work, costs, and timing attached to each way of selling.

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.

Questions about selling a house in Mount Hermon

Can I sell my Mount Hermon house as-is?

Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Mount Hermon and Pittsylvania County, Virginia, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.

Who can sell an inherited Mount Hermon house?

In Virginia, real estate passes at death to the heirs or people named in the will. An executor can sell it only after being appointed through the circuit court clerk, and only if the will directs a sale or grants a power of sale, or a court grants that power. Otherwise, the heirs or beneficiaries generally sign the deed together. The will, list of heirs, and appointment papers determine who signs. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Can I sell if a Virginia trustee sale is scheduled?

Often, yes, if your sale closes and pays off the loan before the foreclosure sale. Virginia home foreclosures are usually trustee's sales under a deed of trust: the trustee auctions the house without a court case. For an owner-occupied home, written notice of the sale generally must go to the owner at least 60 days ahead, or 14 days for other property, and the sale must be advertised in a local newspaper. Plan to close and pay off the loan before the trustee's sale; do not count on buying the house back afterward. The trustee can postpone a sale, and a postponed sale must be advertised again. Do not assume the sale date has moved; have the title company or an attorney confirm the current date and payoff amount.

What Virginia closing costs do you pay?

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

Virginia trustee-sale rules: §55.1-320 · §55.1-321 · §55.1-322.

Virginia estate and signing rules: §64.2-521 · §64.2-534 · §64.2-535.

Virginia deed taxes: grantor tax, §58.1-802 · state recordation tax, §58.1-801.
