Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare the written Cash Offer and EZ Sale numbers with what you may keep after the costs that apply to your house. Choose the path that works for you.
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.

El Dorado seller questions, answered
What would I keep after selling my El Dorado house?
There is no one net number for every house. What you keep depends on the written sale price and the costs and balances tied to the property, including a mortgage, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes. Compare the numbers for each sale path instead of looking only at the headline price.
Do I need to repair or clean out my El Dorado house first?
No. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
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.
When will I get an offer, and can I see the terms first?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You can read the written offer and terms before you commit. If you choose to sell to us, closing happens through a title company.
What closing costs do I pay when selling to you in Arkansas?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Arkansas Real Property Transfer Tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate amounts; Those amounts are separate from the closing costs we pay.
Can I sell while an Arkansas mortgage foreclosure is pending?
Possibly, but the type of foreclosure and its current deadline matter. Arkansas permits nonjudicial sales under its Statutory Foreclosure Act; the trustee or lender must record a notice of default, give and publish required notices, and wait through the statutory minimum notice period. A judicial foreclosure goes through a court case and can carry a post-sale redemption right unless it was validly waived. The agreement does not itself change a notice period or court deadline. The actual deed of trust, notices, court papers, and any waiver show which process applies to the house.
Do I need every document before I call?
No. You can call with the property address and the question on your mind. Share what you know about the house and your timing; you do not need to have every paper or decision figured out before starting a conversation.
Start with the question you have
You can call before every document is gathered or every decision is made. Start with the property address and what is making the sale difficult. Call 888-274-5006.

A City of El Dorado government question
