What we take on after a fire
You can sell without cleaning the house, making repairs, or hauling away fire debris. We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris.
Tell us what was damaged and what you know about safe access. You do not need to restore the property before asking us about a sale.
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 the Mauston address, what happened, what you know about the damage, and any limits on access.
- We discuss the damage and review the house as it stands. We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
- You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company if you choose to proceed.
Local help with access, repairs, and permits
If fire or building officials have restricted entry, stay out. Follow the safety directions for the property and check which approvals apply before cleanup, repairs, or demolition.
If the house is within the City of Mauston, call City Hall at 608-847-6676 about zoning, planning, and property-maintenance questions. The office is at 303 Mansion Street, Mauston, WI 53948. See the City of Mauston Zoning / Planning page for city information.
Compare rebuilding with selling as it stands
If you are weighing a rebuild, consider likely repair costs, the time the work could take, access limits, and the bills you may carry while deciding. Compare those with the written offer and terms.
Use the Mauston home-sale net proceeds calculator with your own planning assumptions. It is an estimate, not an insurance payout or a contractor quote.
