What we take on after a fire
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You do not have to finish restoration or haul fire debris before selling the house to us.
Tell us what you know about the damage and the property's condition. We review the house as it stands, including its cleanup and repair needs.
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 the address, what happened, and any access limits or notices you know about.
- We discuss the damage and review the house as it stands.
- You receive the written offer and terms before you commit; if you choose to sell, closing is through a title company.
Safe access, repairs, and permits
Do not enter a building that is unsafe or that officials have restricted. Follow any instructions on the property's notices, and ask the fire or building official responsible for it what work is allowed before cleanup, repairs, demolition, or rebuilding. Check whether the work needs approval before it begins.
Missouri law lets cities, towns, villages, and first-class or charter counties adopt dangerous-building ordinances. Those rules can require a building to be vacated, repaired, or demolished; the notice and hearing process depends on the local ordinance. See RSMo § 67.400 and RSMo § 67.410. For Sedalia code-violation and serious-disrepair information, see our Sedalia code violations page.
Compare rebuilding with selling as it stands
Put written cleanup, repair, and rebuilding estimates beside a written offer and its terms. Consider the work you want to manage, how long it may take, and the property costs you expect while deciding. Check any insurer, mortgage-servicer, or local-official requirements that apply to this house.
Use the Sedalia home-sale net proceeds calculator with your own planning assumptions. It is an estimate, not an insurance payout or a contractor quote.
