What we take on
Fire damage can leave repairs, cleanup, and debris to deal with. You do not have to clean out the house, make repairs, or haul debris before asking us to buy it. Tell us what happened and what parts of the property can be safely accessed; we review the house in its current condition.
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris.
You keep your insurance proceeds
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.

Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put written repair estimates, safe cleanup and debris costs, any permits or inspections that apply to the address and planned work, and the time and carrying costs of rebuilding beside the written sale terms. Ask your insurer and mortgage servicer how their requirements apply to your claim; do not guess at an insurance payment.
