Marion, OH illustrative estimate
The sale price is only the starting point. What matters is what you keep after your payoff, repairs, fees, and other costs come out. That's your net proceeds.
The home value starts with Zillow’s typical value for the area. Your house may be worth more or less. You can change the value and every cost below. Adjust anything you know, including your payoff, repair or credit risk, cleanout cost, agent commission, and how long you expect to carry the property.

Your starting home-value estimate may come from a public source when one is available. You can edit that estimate and each cost input above; your property's actual value and closing costs may differ.
Choose the condition that best fits your home, then update the value, mortgage payoff, and cost inputs with what you know. The local-cost input is an editable cost reserve, not a verified local tax rate.

You stop paying for a house and get a fair price.
Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's 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.
You keep the insurance money and don't have to worry about the house anymore — we'll take care of it.
Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
When you sell to us, we can set it up so you don't have to prepay anything — it comes out at closing.
You're done — no turnover, no repairs, no more bad tenants.
The fines don't stop while you think about it. They pile up, they add new ones, and every month takes another bite out of what the property is worth to you. We can buy it quickly, violations and all, so you stop the bleeding and keep your equity.
You only have to agree on one thing — the price. After that we handle the rest, so there's nothing to argue about over repairs, contractors, showings, or who pays for what.
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.

Redfin's median sale price and Zillow's typical home value are different measures; neither is an offer or an appraisal for a particular house.
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells. The state fee is $1 per $1,000 of sale price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000 under Ohio Rev. Code §319.54 and §322.02. That is $100 for the state portion on a $100,000 sale; the county portion can be up to $300 at that price. Confirm the current Marion County amount with the closing professional. The seller pays this fee. When you sell to us, we pay it. This refers to the Ohio conveyance fee, not every tax or closing charge.
The calculator uses a 0.4% estimated Marion County conveyance-fee reserve. That is an estimate, not a verified statement of the full current Marion County rate. Ask for the property-specific closing figures before comparing what you may keep.
Marion is the county seat of Marion County. Start with the county Auditor's property search for parcel information and the Recorder's records search for recorded documents. The title company can help identify which records and closing figures apply to your property.

Downtown Marion is a named area of the city. Marion County also lists Caledonia, Green Camp, LaRue, New Bloomington, Prospect, and Waldo. If the property is outside Marion, confirm its exact local jurisdiction by address before relying on city-specific information.
The Marion market report calls out repair-heavy, vacant, inherited, tenant-occupied, and deadline-driven houses as situations for a direct comparison; it does not say how common they are. Share the property's condition, occupancy, and timing so you can compare written terms with the work and costs of listing.

Here's what sellers have said about working with us.
“Howard worked at Home Savings Bank for twenty-eight years. When he retired, we talked about downsizing for two years before we actually did it. The property tax on our Canfield Road house was $3,800 a year, and with both of us on fixed incomes that added up. USA Home Buyers closed in seven days. We're in a smaller place in Boardman with half the maintenance.”
“I got behind on payments after losing my warehouse job. The lender filed in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court and I didn't know what to do. USA Home Buyers explained the Ohio judicial foreclosure timeline, made a written offer the next morning, and we closed before the case moved to summary judgment. I walked away with money instead of losing everything.”
“The house on Michigan Avenue had been in Clara's family since 1951. When the waterline under the street broke, water backed up through the foundation and we had standing water in the basement for four days. Mold, foundation damage, HVAC destroyed. We're both past seventy and we couldn't put $40,000 into a house we'd been thinking about leaving anyway. Closed in ten days.”
Our founder bought his first property in 2004 — more than 20 years of buying houses.
We've helped homeowners in just about every situation you can imagine — thousands of times. When you're working with someone, you want to know they've seen it before. We have.
We buy nationwide and focus on the country's most promising markets — not tied to one region, so we don't get stuck when a local market turns.
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.
It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.
