Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
A lower or higher sale price is only one part of the choice. Compare the written numbers and what you may keep after costs, then pick what works for you.
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.

Beckley seller questions, answered
What might I keep after selling my Beckley house?
The sale price is not the amount you keep. Repairs, agent commission, concessions, cleanout, bills while you wait, and other costs attached to your sale can change the comparison.
Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs we pay. Use your own assumptions to compare possible net proceeds.
Can I sell my Beckley house as-is?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Tell us what you know about the house as it sits.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
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.
How soon can I get a written offer, and when would closing happen?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. The offer timing is separate from a property-specific closing date.
Who pays West Virginia transfer excise taxes when I sell to you?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the West Virginia real estate transfer excise tax and the additional county excise tax.
Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Can I sell if a West Virginia trustee’s sale is scheduled?
A sale may still be possible if the loan can be paid off before the sale. When the loan is secured by a deed of trust, the trustee named in it can sell the house at public auction after a default, without a court case. The trustee generally must publish notice of the trustee’s sale in the county where the property is, once a week for two weeks in a row. There is a narrow exception for an older deed of trust. The trustee must also send the borrower notice by certified mail, return receipt requested; the notice counts once mailed to the required address, even if it comes back.
Sale proceeds pay the trustee’s expenses, then the secured debts, and any surplus goes to the former owner. Treat the auction date as the deadline for completing a sale and paying off the loan. Have the title company or an attorney confirm the current sale date and amount needed.
Our agreement of sale will often get a trustee’s sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn’t postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.
Can I call before I have all the paperwork gathered?
Yes. Start with the property address, what you know about its condition and occupancy, and the timing or paperwork question on your mind. You can call before you have everything figured out.
A deed, estate paper, lease, payoff statement, tax notice, lien notice, or court paper may help identify the next question. The written terms and title-company closing give you a chance to review what applies before you commit.
Does a Beckley address tell me which local government handles a property question?
Beckley is a West Virginia city in Raleigh County, and the county identifies Beckley as its county seat. The City of Beckley and Raleigh County are separate jurisdictions.
A City-hosted 2045 plan update is marked draft and describes an unusual city boundary with unincorporated pockets or enclaves. The broad city-and-county map does not establish whether a particular address is inside city limits or which office has jurisdiction.

Checking which local government serves a Beckley address?
Beckley is in Raleigh County, but the city and county are separate jurisdictions. The City-hosted 2045 plan update is marked draft and describes an unusual city boundary with unincorporated pockets or enclaves. Use the property address when asking which local office applies; the broad map does not decide jurisdiction for a particular parcel.
