Start with the number you keep
Compare what is left after the costs
A cash offer and a listing can have different costs before money reaches you. Compare the written price with repairs, selling costs, cleanout, carrying costs, mortgage payoff, and liens. Your actual numbers depend on the house and the terms you review.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Look at what you would keep, the work involved, and the timing terms side by side. The written numbers let you decide which path fits your house.
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

Tiffin seller questions, answered
Can I sell my Tiffin house without fixing or cleaning it first?
Yes. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can ask about the house before doing that work.
How soon will I get a written cash offer?
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You receive written offer and written terms before you commit; closing is through a title company.
How do I compare what I would keep from each sale option?
Compare the money left after the costs of each path, not only the headline price. Repairs, selling costs, cleanout, carrying costs, payoff, and liens can change the amount left for you. The calculator lets you change its assumptions for your house.
How does Ohio’s conveyance fee work for a Seneca County sale?
Ohio charges a conveyance fee when a house sells, and by law the seller pays it: $1 per $1,000 of the price at the state level, plus up to $3 per $1,000 the county can add. Check the current Seneca County amount with the County Auditor or title company rather than assuming the county maximum. When you sell to us, we pay it.
Can I ask about an inherited Tiffin house before all the paperwork is ready?
Yes. You can start with the address and the facts you have; you do not need every document gathered before asking a question. Estate authority and title details can affect who may sign and when a sale can close, so have the title company or an Ohio estate attorney confirm what applies to your documents.
Can I sell a Tiffin rental while a tenant is living there?
Yes, we can review a tenant-occupied property. Tell us what you know about the lease, access, rent situation, and timing; those details can affect the sale plan. Get advice about the actual lease and tenant process before making changes based on a possible sale.
Will an offer change a foreclosure or sheriff-sale deadline?
A cash-offer discussion does not itself confirm that an official deadline has changed. Check the actual lender, court, or sheriff notice for the current date and status, and get advice about your specific case before relying on a sale timeline.
Start with what you know
You can call before you have every answer
Start with the property address, what is happening with the house, who lives there, and any timing you know. A deed, lease, payoff statement, tax notice, or estate paper can help answer a specific question, but you can call with the facts you have.

Seneca County offices for local questions
For the current county conveyance-fee amount or a parcel and property-tax question, check with the Seneca County Auditor. Use the county directory to find the office for another local question.
