Sell without cleanup, repairs, or hauling debris
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris. You do not have to clear out the house or finish restoration before selling to us. Tell us what happened and what access limits apply; you can discuss the house in its current condition.
Do not go inside to gather photos or paperwork if the house may be unsafe. You can tell us what you know and share records you already have.
Insurance proceeds and your mortgage
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds.
Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
What happens next
- Tell us the Corpus Christi address, what happened, what damage you know about, and whether anyone has restricted access. You can call before gathering paperwork.
- We discuss the property and give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
- You receive written terms before you commit. If you choose to proceed, closing is through a title company.
Building safety, repairs, and permits
Do not enter a structure that may be unsafe. Follow directions from the fire or building officials, utility, and insurer responsible for the actual property. Before cleanup, repairs, or demolition, ask the responsible officials whether access restrictions, permits, or inspections apply to that address.
For a property within City of Corpus Christi jurisdiction, the City's Development Services building-permits page links to its Dynamic Portal for permit applications and permit or inspection information. Check which jurisdiction handles the parcel; if it is outside the City's responsibility, contact the building official for that address instead. This page does not establish a universal sale inspection.
City of Corpus Christi building permits and inspections →Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Compare estimates for the actual repair work with your insurer's claim instructions, any mortgage requirements, bills while you wait, and written sale terms. You do not have to guess at the insurance payment or rebuild cost to ask about an as-is sale.
The Corpus Christi calculator compares a listing with what you may actually net against an as-is sale using your assumptions. It is a planning estimate, not an insurance or reconstruction estimate.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
