What we do with the house and its contents
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is.
If there are belongings your family wants to keep, tell us while we discuss the house. You do not have to empty it before asking about a sale; the written terms can say what stays with the property.
Keeping a house can mean ongoing utility bills, insurance, maintenance, and property taxes. Compare those carrying costs with a written offer and the other options for the property.
