What we take on
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You do not have to arrange restoration or haul debris before asking about a sale. Tell us what remains at the house and what was damaged so we can discuss the property as it stands.
Insurance proceeds and your mortgage
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds. Confirm how the proceeds and any mortgage requirements apply to your claim with your insurer and mortgage servicer.
What happens next
- Tell us what happened, what you know about the damage, and whether access is restricted.
- We review the house as it stands and give you a written cash offer within 24 hours.
- You receive written terms before you commit. If you choose to proceed, a title company handles the closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Local safety, permit, and records contacts
If the house may be unsafe or entry is restricted, do not go inside. Follow directions for the actual property from the fire or building officials responsible for the site and the utility provider. Before cleanup, debris removal, repairs, or demolition, ask the officials responsible for the address what access limits or approvals apply. For a Minot address, use the City’s official website to find the current building-safety or permit contact. Outside Minot city limits, confirm which local authority is responsible for the property.
Ward County’s Recorder’s Office, Auditor/Treasurer’s Office, and Clerk of District Court are starting points for county recording, tax, and court-record questions. They do not decide whether a fire-damaged structure is safe to enter or what work is allowed at a particular address.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put the repair scope and written contractor estimates beside the claim information you have, your mortgage payoff, and the bills you expect to keep paying while you decide. For a sale, compare written terms with a realistic listing estimate after repairs, commissions, concessions, and holding costs. Use property-specific figures rather than assuming what insurance will pay or how long repairs will take.
The Minot calculator lets you compare sale estimates using your own assumptions. It is a planning estimate, not a property-specific offer or settlement statement.
