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.

Can I sell my West Virginia house if a trustee’s sale is scheduled?
A sale may still be possible if the loan can be paid off before the trustee’s sale. With 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 in the county once a week for two weeks in a row, with a narrow exception for an older deed of trust. The trustee must also send the borrower notice by certified mail, return receipt requested; notice counts once mailed to the required address, even if it comes back. Use the actual sale notice and payoff to confirm the deadline and amount with the title company or an attorney.
