Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not only the sale price
What remains depends on the mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, and other amounts due at closing. A listing can also involve repairs, agent costs, cleanout, and the cost of carrying the house. Use the calculator to compare possible net proceeds with assumptions that fit your property.

Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
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.

Laramie seller questions, answered
Can I sell my Laramie house as-is?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can ask us to review the house before doing that work.
How much of the sale price would I keep?
The sale price is not the amount you keep. The final amount depends on the mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, your share of current property taxes, and other items due at closing. Compare those amounts along with repairs, commissions, cleanout, and the cost of carrying the house if you list it.
How soon can I get a written cash offer?
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. We can start with the Laramie address and the condition, occupancy, and timing details you know.
Do I see the offer and terms before deciding?
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, timing, responsibilities, and any property-specific terms before you decide.
What closing costs or transfer tax apply in Wyoming?
Wyoming does not impose a state real estate transfer tax. State law sets the county clerk's deed-recording charge at $12 for the first page and $3 for each additional page; extra charges can apply, and the closing professional confirms the exact amount. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
Can I sell my house while a Wyoming foreclosure is pending?
A sale may still be possible if the required payoff can be completed in time. A mortgage with a power of sale can be foreclosed by advertisement without a lawsuit. Written notice of intent is mailed to the owner and any different occupant at least 10 days before newspaper publication starts. The sale notice is published once a week for four consecutive weeks, and a copy is sent by certified mail before publication starts. The sheriff, a deputy, or the lender may conduct the sale. Afterward, the owner of nonagricultural property generally has three months to redeem by paying the purchase price plus statutory interest and certain costs, and generally keeps possession during that period. Agricultural property can have a 12-month period. Our agreement of sale will often get a foreclosure sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think. Ask the title company or an attorney to confirm the deadline and amount needed for your property.
Can I start an inherited-house sale before every estate paper is ready?
Yes. You can start the conversation before every estate document is gathered, but the person signing and that person’s authority must be clear before closing. In probate, a court-appointed personal representative can sell under a power of sale in the will; otherwise, the representative can ask the district court to authorize a sale after notice and a hearing. For an estate worth no more than $400,000 after liens, a person entitled to inherit may apply for summary distribution at least 30 days after the death. Homestead property has additional requirements, and mortgages and liens still need to be paid or released for clear title. The actual will, court papers, deed, and title review determine what applies.
Can I sell a Laramie rental with tenants still living there?
Yes. Selling the property does not by itself end an existing lease or require tenants to move. The lease and any lawful termination notice still matter. Wyoming’s deposit law applies to whoever holds the owner’s interest when the rental agreement ends: the remaining deposit and prepaid rent, with a written list of deductions, are generally due within 30 days after the agreement ends or 15 days after the tenant’s new address is received, whichever is later. Damage to the rental unit adds 30 days. Bring the lease, deposit records, and notices to the closing professional so the sale accounts for the buyer’s responsibilities.
Can I sell a Laramie house with a code notice or repair order?
A sale may be possible, but existing orders, liens, and local requirements matter. Wyoming law lets cities and towns address dangerous buildings and nuisances; local ordinances set the repair, removal, notice, and cost-recovery process. An as-is sale does not erase an existing order or property lien. Send us the notices so we can work through the repairs, deadlines, and closing requirements.
Can I call before I have all the paperwork?
Yes. Call before you have everything gathered. We can start with the property address, what you know about its condition and occupancy, and the timing question on your mind. A deed, will, lease, payoff, tax notice, or court paper may help answer the next question; the title company confirms ownership, signing authority, and amounts needed before closing.
