Money and choices
Compare what you keep, not just the sale price
Repairs, selling costs, and the time you carry the house can change what remains. A mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes also affect what you keep.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

What closing costs and Missouri charges apply?
No fees. No agent commissions when you sell to us. Missouri's constitution bars state, county, and other local governments from imposing new taxes on the sale or transfer of real estate after December 2, 2010. County deed-recording fees still apply: state law sets $5 for the first page and $3 for each additional page, plus per-document fees. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.

Who can sign for an inherited Raymore house?
The personal representative appointed by the probate court signs for the estate; an heir cannot sign alone just because they inherited the house. In independent administration, the representative generally can sell estate real estate without a separate court order, subject to the will's limits and the estate's benefit. In supervised administration, a sale generally follows a court order. A will may also give the executor power to sell. We can talk through the house and the estate papers you have. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

Can I sell my Raymore house with a tenant living there?
You don't always need to evict to sell to us. We buy houses with tenants in place — we've done it many times, including cash-for-keys when that works better for everyone. The lease generally continues after the sale, and the buyer becomes the landlord unless the lease says otherwise.

Can I sell before a Missouri trustee’s sale?
A sale may still be possible if the loan can be paid off before the trustee's sale. If the deed of trust gives the lender a power of sale, the lender can foreclose through a trustee's sale without a court case. Missouri requires at least 20 days' notice, published in a newspaper and mailed by certified or registered mail to the owner of record.
