Money and choices
A useful comparison looks at the written price and the costs attached to each path: repairs, agent compensation, cleanout, carrying costs, payoffs, and closing costs. Those numbers vary with the house and the terms, so compare the likely net proceeds rather than guessing from a general percentage.
Compare your own assumptions with the Camden home-sale net-proceeds calculator. The Cash Offer and EZ Sale comparison below shows the two program paths side by side.
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.

Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is in Camden city and Camden County, New Jersey. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
There is no one discount or amount that fits every house. Compare the written price with what you expect to keep after listing costs such as repairs, agent compensation, cleanout, carrying costs, and other sale expenses. The calculator lets you compare your own assumptions; your property details and written terms matter more than a headline price.

New Jersey charges a realty transfer fee when a deed is recorded, and a separate graduated percent fee may apply to a home sale over $1 million unless the transfer is exempt. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New Jersey's realty transfer fee and any applicable graduated percent fee. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Often, yes, if the sale closes before the sheriff's sale. New Jersey foreclosures go through the courts. The lender first sends a Notice of Intention to Foreclose; you then have 30 days to catch up on the debt or ask for mediation before the lender can file in court. After you are served with the complaint, you have 35 days to answer. In an uncontested residential foreclosure, the lender normally must send a notice at least 14 calendar days before submitting proofs for final judgment, explaining how to get the amount needed to catch up. After final judgment, the sheriff sells the house at a public auction called a sheriff's sale. The sale must be advertised for at least four weeks, and the sheriff has 150 days from the writ of execution to hold it. You can ask the sheriff for two adjournments, each up to 30 calendar days; the lender can get two as well, one more is allowed if both sides agree, and a court can order more for good cause. After the sale, you generally have 10 days to redeem the house by paying the full amount due, including the judgment and sale costs. Free foreclosure mediation is available through the courts. If a foreclosure sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
Yes. You can call before every estate paper is gathered. Who may sign depends on the will, appointment, deed, title requirements, and any court order for that property. Camden County Surrogate Court provides estate-service information; the title company or a qualified attorney can help confirm who has authority to sign.
A tenant in the house is something to discuss at the start. Share the lease, who lives there, access details, and any timing or possession question. A sale does not by itself cancel the lease or make tenants leave; the lease and New Jersey process still matter.
Those balances do not disappear because a house is sold. Share any payoff statement, tax bill, lien notice, or court paper you have; an assessment or recorded document is not necessarily the current amount due. The closing figures depend on the property and its actual accounts. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from the closing costs we pay.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.

Start with the Camden address, what you know about the condition, who is living there, and the timing that matters. If you have an estate paper, lease, payoff, tax notice, lien notice, or court paper, keep it nearby—but you do not need to have everything figured out before calling.
