Sell without cleanup, repairs, or debris hauling
A fire can leave you with cleanup, repairs, and debris to deal with. You do not have to clean out the house, arrange repairs, or haul debris before asking us to buy it. Tell us what happened and what you know about the property; we can discuss it as it stands.
If officials have restricted access, follow their directions and do not enter. Check what is safe and permitted before arranging an inspection or starting work.
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 what was damaged, what access is safe, and what you know about the claim.
- We discuss the property and give you a written cash offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to sell, closing is handled through a title company.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

City of Slidell Building Safety and permits →Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
If you are considering rebuilding, compare written repair estimates, cleanup and debris costs, any permits or plans that apply, and the cost of keeping the house while work is underway. Include what you learn from your insurer and mortgage servicer. Weigh that against the written terms for an as-is sale and how much of the work you want to manage.
