Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Net proceeds are what remains after sale costs. Repairs, commissions, other selling costs, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, and the time you carry the house can change what you keep. Use the calculator with your own estimates, then compare the written numbers for each option.

Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

Useful questions about selling in Bloomington
Do I need to repair or clean out my Bloomington house first?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Share what you know about the house and its condition; you do not need to start work before asking about a sale.
How soon can I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
Can I sell my Indiana house while it is in foreclosure?
You may still have time before the sheriff's sale. Indiana mortgage foreclosures go through court. Before the sale, an owner can redeem the property by paying the full judgment, interest and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the stage of the case. 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. Selling before foreclosure may help protect any equity you have. Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff'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 every paper ready?
Yes. Start with the property address, what you know about its condition and occupancy, and the timing you have in mind. A deed, payoff, property-tax notice, lien notice, estate paper, or court notice may help answer a follow-up question, but you can call before collecting everything.
Does a Bloomington mailing address mean a house is inside the city limits?
No. A mailing address does not establish a parcel’s municipal boundary. Bloomington is a city in Monroe County, but check the actual parcel against official boundary or parcel records before relying on city jurisdiction.

Local help
Check the Bloomington municipal boundary for the actual parcel
The City of Bloomington’s GIS boundary layer covers Monroe County city and town boundaries, and county incorporated-area records identify Bloomington as a city in Monroe County. These are municipal boundaries, not postal-city assignments. Check the actual parcel against official boundary or parcel records before relying on city jurisdiction.
