Your situation
Foreclosure
Fire damage

If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
Liens and back taxes
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
Tenants
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
Code violations
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
Divorce
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
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.

Missouri selling costs: deed recording fees
Missouri's constitution bars state and local governments from imposing new taxes on real-estate sales or transfers after December 2, 2010. Recording a deed still has page fees: $5 for the first page and $3 for each additional page, plus per-document fees set by state law. For example, a two-page deed has $8 in page-based fees before those other document charges. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
