Sell without cleaning up after the fire
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris. You don't need to arrange restoration or clear the property before discussing a sale with us.
You can compare selling the house as it is with the time and expense of rebuilding, without taking on cleanup or repair work first.
Insurance proceeds and your mortgage
We buy the house exactly as it stands, and you keep your insurance proceeds. If you still have a mortgage, your lender may have a say in how that check is used — we'll walk through it with you.
What happens next
Tell us about the fire damage, the property's access, and what you know about the claim or mortgage. Start with the details you have; we'll talk through the house with you.
We give you the offer and terms in writing before you commit. If you decide to move forward, the sale closes through a title company.

Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Rebuilding may involve debris removal, repairs, permits, time, and the requirements that apply to your insurance claim and mortgage. Compare those considerations with selling the house as it stands to us.
Use your own estimates for repairs, cleanout, mortgage payoff, and monthly bills to compare a listing with an as-is sale. Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
