What we take on
After a fire, you can sell without cleaning the house, repairing damage or hauling debris. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Insurance proceeds and your mortgage
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds. If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
What happens next
Tell us about the damage and the house. We discuss the property with you and give you a written offer and written terms before you commit. If you choose to sell, we close through a title company. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee's realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Local help with safety and permits
Follow directions from fire responders, the building official, utilities and your insurer. Stay out of a structure marked unsafe or where access has been restricted. For a house inside Martin city limits, contact City Hall about building permits; the City lists its Building Inspector at 731-587-3126, extension 1177, at 109 University Street. Outside Martin city limits, contact Weakley County about its separate permit process.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
If you rebuild, consider repair and cleanup costs and the bills you would keep paying while work is underway. Compare those costs with the written terms for selling the house as-is.
Change the planning assumptions in the Martin home-sale net proceeds calculator. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
