Talk through the house and your question
We give written cash offers in 24 hours.
Share the address and what is happening with the house.
A sale without the repair and showing project
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
You do not have to find contractors, coordinate repairs, clean the house, or arrange public showings before you ask about selling. You and the other owner can focus on the price instead of managing a listing project together.
The deed and divorce order can affect who signs
The recorded deed shows how the house is titled. If a divorce order addresses the house, the title company reviews it with the deed to see which signatures and closing papers the sale needs. A Missouri family-law attorney can explain what the order says; call us if you want to talk through the sale.
In a Missouri divorce, Missouri Revised Statutes §452.330 says the court sets aside each spouse's nonmarital property and divides marital property and debts as it considers just. A certified copy of a decree affecting real-estate title may be filed with the Recorder of Deeds in the county where the house is. A Missouri family-law attorney can explain an order about your house.
