Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare what you keep after the sale costs and property balances, not only the price at the top of an offer. The two written options let you compare the terms for your house before choosing.
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.

Findlay seller questions, answered
Can I sell a Findlay house as-is?
Yes. USA Home Buyers buys houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We buy in Findlay and Hancock County, Ohio.
How quickly can I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
What is the difference between a Cash Offer and EZ Sale?
Cash Offer — USA Home Buyers buys directly. 30 days or less. Lower price. No repairs, no commissions, no closing costs. EZ Sale — goes to one of our partners. 60 days or less. Higher price than the Cash Offer. Still no repairs, no commissions, no closing costs. Compare the written numbers before you decide.
How do I figure out what I will keep from the sale?
Net proceeds are what remains after the sale price is reduced by a mortgage payoff, liens, and other property-specific balances and costs. The Cash Offer and EZ Sale terms list no repairs, no commissions, and no closing costs. Compare the written numbers and the assumptions that apply to your house; the title company confirms the final settlement figures.
What is Ohio’s conveyance fee?
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells: the required state fee is $1 per $1,000 of the price, plus up to $3 per $1,000 the county may add; by law, the seller pays it. When you sell to us, we pay it. Hancock County’s adopted amount determines the local total.
Can you buy a tenant-occupied Findlay house?
We can review tenant-occupied properties. Tell us the lease status, access limits, rent situation, and any notices already involved. We do not tell owners to ignore Ohio court, lease, or title process.
Can I ask about an inherited house before all the estate papers are ready?
Yes. You can ask a question before collecting every estate document. Before a sale closes, the people who own the house and the authority to sign still need to be confirmed from the actual estate papers and title review.
What if a foreclosure notice or deadline is involved?
Use the actual lender or court notice to check the current deadline. A cash-offer conversation by itself does not change a foreclosure or sale deadline. We can review the house and timing; confirm your options with the lender, an attorney, or the court handling the case.
Can you review a house with code notices or serious repairs?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Keep any notice you received and ask the issuing office what status or next steps apply to that property.
What should I have ready before I call?
Start with the Findlay address, what you know about the house, who lives there, and the timing you have in mind. You do not need every lease, payoff statement, estate paper, or city notice gathered before asking a question; a document can be reviewed later if it matters to title or signing authority.
