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 arrange a cleanout, remove debris, or finish repairs before discussing a sale with us.
Tell us what happened and what you know about the property. You can discuss an as-is sale while the damage is still there.
Insurance proceeds and mortgage requirements
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 Hutchinson address, what happened, and what you know about the damage and access.
- We discuss the property and give you a written cash offer and written terms.
- Read the terms before you commit. If you choose to proceed, a title company handles the closing.
You can call before gathering paperwork or arranging cleanup or repairs.
Local safety, permit, and property-record contacts
If the structure may be unsafe or officials have restricted access, do not enter. Follow directions for the actual property from the fire or building officials responsible for the site and the utility provider. Before cleanup, debris removal, demolition, or repairs, ask the responsible local office what access rules and approvals apply.
For a property inside Hutchinson city limits, contact the City's Planning, Zoning and Building department about the address and planned work. Requirements depend on the property and work; confirm them before starting.
- City of Hutchinson Planning, Zoning and Building →
Start here for city building, repair, and permit questions. Confirm which rules apply to the address and work you are considering.
- McLeod County Recorder / Registrar of Titles →
Use the county office for recorded-deed and registered-title record questions. It is separate from the city permit contact above.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put a written repair scope and contractor estimates beside the information from your insurer, any mortgage payoff, expected holding costs, and written sale terms. Use figures for this house rather than guessing at repair costs or an insurance payment.
The Hutchinson calculator lets you compare listing and as-is sale estimates using your own numbers. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
