How to Sell a House in Raymore, MO | 2026 Guide

Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

A listing may bring a higher price, but repairs, cleaning, commissions, showings, buyer requests, and the bills you carry while waiting can affect what you keep. Compare those costs and timing with the written terms for a direct sale.

The probate-court-appointed personal representative handles an estate sale; inheriting a house alone does not give you authority to sign for the estate. In independent administration, the representative generally may sell estate real estate within the will's limits and for the estate's benefit. In supervised administration, a sale generally follows a court order. If the will gives the executor a power to sell, the executor may use that power. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

A sale may still be possible if the loan can be paid off before the trustee's sale. With a deed of trust that gives the lender a power of sale, foreclosure can proceed through a trustee's sale without a court case. The sale is held in the county where the house is located, with at least 20 days' notice published in a newspaper and mailed by certified or registered mail to the owner of record. If the lender or someone acting for it buys at the sale, you can redeem the house within one year. To keep that right, give written notice of intent at the sale or within ten days before it, then file a court-approved bond within 20 days after the sale. Have a title company or attorney confirm the current sale date and payoff amount. If a trustee's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.

Missouri generally lets an owner transfer rented property and the right to future rent without the tenant's consent, unless the lease says otherwise. The buyer becomes the landlord, and the sale by itself does not make the tenant move. 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.

Missouri's Constitution bars the state, counties, and other local governments from imposing new taxes on the sale or transfer of real estate after December 2, 2010. State law sets deed-recording fees at $5 for the first page and $3 for each additional page, plus per-document fees. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.
