What we take on
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris. You do not have to clean out the house, repair fire damage, or arrange debris removal before selling to us.
Tell us what happened and what you know about the property. You can compare written terms without first taking on a cleanup or restoration project.
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 Frankfort address and what you know about the damage and access. You can call while you are still sorting out the paperwork.
- We discuss the property and give you a written offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to sell, closing is through a title company. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.

Local records, safety, and permits
Do not enter if officials have said the house is unsafe or restricted access. Follow the fire, building, and utility directions for the property address. Before cleanup, repairs, demolition, or debris removal, ask the official responsible for that address whether access restrictions, approvals, or permits apply. For an active emergency or immediate danger, call 911.
These Clinton County offices are useful for property-record and assessment references; they do not provide fire-scene clearance or authorize repair work.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put the written offer and terms beside repair and cleanup estimates, debris removal, holding costs, mortgage payoff, and the time and coordination a rebuild may take. Use the actual claim information from your insurer rather than guessing at a payout.
The Frankfort calculator compares a possible listing net with an as-is sale using editable assumptions. It is a planning estimate, not an insurance or repair estimate and not a property-specific offer.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.

What sellers say about USA Home Buyers
Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“I retired from Carle Hospital after thirty-three years as a nurse and decided to move to Arizona to be near my son. My house in Lincolnwood had been good to me but it needed some work I wasn't willing to do. USA Home Buyers made an offer the day after we spoke. I was in Tucson six weeks later.”
“I'd been renting to UIUC students in Old West Urbana for eleven years. Every August it was the same: new tenants, new damage, new headaches. Last summer I decided I was done. USA Home Buyers bought the place tenant-occupied. Closed in twelve days. I'm out of the landlord business.”
“The Champaign County divorce decree required the house to be sold. It's in Savoy, near the university, good area — but we couldn't agree on anything. One offer was already written up for us and both of us just had to sign. Twelve days and it was done. The attorneys took care of the rest.”
