Compare your choices
A listing may bring a higher price, but it can involve repairs, cleaning, showings, agent commissions, buyer requests, and more time carrying the house. Compare the likely price with the costs, work, and time you would take on.
No agent commissions when you sell to us. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No fees.
Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow. Compare the written terms with the timing and amount you want to keep.
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.

Sheriff’s sale information.
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
If the will gives the appointed executor power to sell, the executor can sign without a separate court order (Ohio Rev. Code §2113.39). If it does not, another route may be available unless the will forbids it: the surviving spouse and all beneficiaries named in the will — or all heirs if there is no will — give written consent and file it with probate court. The price must be at least 80% of the house's appraised value in the approved inventory. This option is unavailable if the surviving spouse or any beneficiary or heir is under 18 (Ohio Rev. Code §2127.011). If a parent recorded a transfer-on-death designation, the beneficiary can record an affidavit and sell the house like an owner (Ohio Rev. Code §§5302.22, 5302.222). If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
Ohio mortgage foreclosures go through court. You can generally still stop a sheriff's 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. It doesn't always work, but it works more often than people think.
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. In Ohio, the lease typically stays with the house, and the security deposit typically transfers to the buyer at closing.
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells: state law requires $1 per $1,000 of the sale price, and the county may add up to $3 per $1,000 (Ohio Rev. Code §§319.54, 322.02). The Fairfield County Auditor can answer questions about the county amount. That is the Ohio conveyance fee. When you sell to us, we pay it.
