What we buy
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We can talk with you about the house and what the notice says before you decide what to do next.
What can affect closing
West Virginia law lets cities adopt ordinances requiring owners to repair, close, remove, or demolish unsafe, unsanitary, or dangerous buildings. Under W. Va. Code § 8-12-16, after written notice the City can do required work and place a lien for its costs. A municipal court may also put a building in receivership.
Mercer County's commission has similar authority under W. Va. Code § 7-1-3ff. After notice and a chance for a hearing, it may order repairs or demolition, impose daily penalties, arrange the work, and seek a lien for the cost.
A notice, court case, deadline, or lien can affect closing, and an as-is sale does not cancel an existing order or lien. When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
What happens next
We talk with you about the house and the notice. If we move forward, we put the offer and terms in writing before you commit. If you choose to sell, closing is through a title company.
