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.

We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. If there's a city or county notice on the property, share it so the open order and any charges can be checked separately.
Clark County's real property transfer tax is $2.55 for each $500 of value, or part of $500. The value is generally the full purchase price, rounded up to the next $500. Nevada law makes the buyer and seller each responsible for the full tax; a contract can say who pays, but the county may collect from either one. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Nevada's real property transfer tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Often, yes, if the sale closes before the trustee's sale. For a home loan secured by a deed of trust, the trustee can sell without a court case. After the notice of default is recorded and mailed, the trustee cannot sell unless the missed payments remain unpaid for 35 days. If you live in the home, you have 30 days after service of that notice to waive mediation or ask the district court for it; asking has a $25 filing fee plus your share of the mediator's fee. If you timely file, pay, and serve the required request, the trustee cannot move ahead until mediation is finished. The trustee can give notice of sale at least three months after recording the notice of default. The sale notice is recorded, mailed or delivered, posted in the county for 20 days, and published in a county newspaper once a week for three weeks. Once the trustee's sale happens, Nevada law gives no right to buy the house back. If a trustee's sale is scheduled, tell us the date right away so we can try to close before it.
Yes, you can ask before every estate paper is gathered. To sell for the estate, someone must first qualify with court authority to sign. In most estates, the court must confirm the sale before title passes; a court order granting full independent-administration authority can allow a sale without confirmation. The letters, court order, will, and property records determine which path applies. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
Yes. A sale does not end the lease. Unless the buyer and tenant agree to change or end it, the rental agreement continues and the buyer takes over the landlord's rights and duties. In a voluntary sale, the seller transfers the remaining security deposit to the buyer before the deed is recorded and gives the tenant written notice of the new landlord's name, address, phone number, and deposit transfer. Within 30 days after the sale, the new owner must tell the tenant where to pay rent, that the rental agreement continues, and how much deposit is being held.
Usually, yes, but an open order or charge does not disappear when the property sells. Nevada cities and counties can adopt rules for dangerous or run-down buildings and other nuisances. If an owner does not fix a problem, the local government can do the work, impose penalties, and make the costs or penalties a special assessment against the property that is collected like property taxes. Send notices or orders to the title company so it can check what remains open. When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
No. You can start with the property address, what you know about its condition, who lives there, and any timing or notice you are working with. A deed, lease, estate paper, payoff statement, lien notice, or city or county notice can help answer the details as they come up.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, timing, and property-specific costs before you decide.
Start with a question
You do not need a complete file to ask about a house. Share the address, what you know about its condition, who lives there, and any deadline or notice you have. We can talk through the question before you decide what to do.
Call 888-274-5006 whenever you are ready to talk. You do not have to wait for every document.
Local help
The City of Las Vegas is one jurisdiction within Clark County; the valley also includes North Las Vegas, Henderson, and unincorporated county areas. If a city rule or record matters, check the property’s actual jurisdiction rather than assuming the city and county are interchangeable.
The Clark County Recorder records deeds and collects real property transfer tax before recording. For a recording or declaration-of-value question, start with the county office; the Nevada Department of Taxation explains the state tax rules.
The Eighth Judicial District Court handles Clark County probate matters. For owner-occupants with a foreclosure notice, the Nevada courts’ mediation program explains how to ask for foreclosure mediation and what the process covers.
These public offices can explain their records and procedures. The deed, court papers, notice, lease, and closing documents determine what applies to a particular house.
