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 burned materials, arrange repairs, or haul anything away for us to buy the house. Tell us what was damaged and any access limits you already know; you do not need to enter an unsafe or restricted area to ask about a sale.
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 property address, what the fire damaged, and any limits on entering the house.
- We discuss the damage and the information you have. We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
- You receive the written offer and written terms before you commit. If you choose to sell, a title company handles the closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New York State real estate transfer tax and any applicable local real estate transfer taxes. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
Local safety, repair, and permit help
Do not enter if fire or building officials have restricted access or the house may be unsafe. Follow instructions for that property from the responsible officials and utility provider. Before cleanup, repairs, or demolition, ask which access rules, permits, and inspections apply to the address and planned work.
For a property inside the City of Glens Falls, contact City of Glens Falls Building & Codes about city permits and code inspections. The office is at 230 Dix Avenue, Glens Falls, NY 12801; call (518) 761-3848. For a property outside city limits, use the building or fire contact responsible for that address.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put written repair or rebuilding estimates beside the written sale terms. Consider the work and time involved, your insurer's claim requirements, any mortgage-servicer requirements, and costs you expect to carry while repairs are underway. Do not guess at an insurance payout; use the information from your insurer and compare it with the terms for your actual property.
Use the Glens Falls home-sale calculator with your own assumptions as one way to compare possible sale proceeds. Keep the rebuilding estimates and claim information separate when you weigh the two options.
