What we take on
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris. You don't have to arrange debris removal or finish repairs before discussing a sale with us.
Tell us what happened and what you know about the property. You can talk through an as-is sale while the damage is still there.
Insurance proceeds and your mortgage
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds. Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
What happens next
- Tell us the Anniston or Calhoun County address, what happened, and what you know about access.
- We review the property information and give you a written cash offer and written terms.
- Read the terms before you commit. If you choose to proceed, a title company handles the closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Alabama's deed tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
You can call before arranging repairs or gathering paperwork.
Local safety, permit, and county-office contacts
If the structure may be unsafe or officials have restricted entry, stay out and follow directions for the property from fire or building officials, the utility provider, and your insurer. Before cleanup, repairs, or demolition, ask the officials responsible for the address which approvals or inspections apply.
The City of Anniston's official Forms / Permits / Applications page lists online building and demolition permit resources. If the house is outside Anniston city limits, confirm which authority handles permits and safety questions for that address.

The Calhoun County pages are official office-routing starting points; ask the office which property records or questions it handles.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put a written repair scope and estimates for this house beside information from your insurer, any mortgage-servicer requirements, expected holding costs, and written sale terms. Use the actual property details rather than guessing at an insurance payment or repair cost.
The Anniston calculator lets you compare sale estimates using your own assumptions. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
