You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

How does Virginia grantor tax work?
Virginia charges 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value when a deed is recorded. State law assigns the tax to the seller, but the sales contract can shift who pays it. State and local recordation taxes are separate.
Can I sell a house with tenants in it?
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.
How soon could the sale close?
Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.
