Sell directly to us
Start with the house as it sits. You can compare our written price and terms with the work and costs of listing before you choose.
Two ways to buy
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.

Rental homes, Town notices, and permitted work
Selling a rental
If you rent or plan to rent a home in Munster, the Town requires you to apply for a rental or conditional rental permit. You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone.
Town notices and permitted construction
Munster Community Development handles blight abatement, construction complaints, and deteriorated-property questions. For permitted construction, the Town describes a final inspection and an occupancy certificate when the work is complete. If you have a notice or open permit, share it with us and we'll review it with the house.

Indiana property-transfer filing costs
Indiana requires a property-transfer filing with the Lake County Auditor for property-tax records. The filing fee is usually $20, and some transfers are exempt. Deed recording and other closing charges are separate.
Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Indiana property-transfer filing fee. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.
Estate and foreclosure questions
An inherited house
You can sell in the estate's name once the estate is opened — no need to put the house in your own name first. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

A mortgage foreclosure
Indiana mortgage foreclosures go through court. Before the sheriff's sale, an owner can redeem by paying the full judgment, interest, and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the case stage; paying only overdue installments is not the same thing. A sale needs to close and resolve the debt in time, so get the actual payoff and sheriff's-sale date checked promptly.
