Sell without cleaning up the damage
We buy fire-damaged houses exactly as they stand — no cleanup, no repairs, no hauling debris. You do not have to clear the house, arrange repairs, or haul debris before selling to us. Tell us what happened and what you know about the property; you can call while the damage is still there.
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 the Sweetwater address and what you know about the fire damage and access.
- We discuss the property and give you a written cash offer within 24 hours, with written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to move forward, we close through a title company.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee's realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Safe access and local building questions
If the house may be unsafe or officials have restricted entry, do not go inside; follow directions from the fire or building official and utility provider responsible for the property. Before cleanup, demolition, or repairs, ask the local office responsible for the address what access and approvals apply to that work. If you have a building notice, the Sweetwater code-violation page covers options for discussing it with us.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put the repair scope and estimates beside the information from your insurer and mortgage servicer, the time and costs of keeping the house, and any written sale terms. Compare figures for this property rather than guessing at an insurance payout or repair bill.
Use the Sweetwater home-sale net-proceeds calculator to compare sale scenarios with your own assumptions. It is a planning estimate, not a property-specific offer or insurance decision.
