What we take on
You do not have to clean the house, arrange repairs, or haul debris before selling to us. We buy the house in its current condition, including fire damage. You can talk with us about a sale before taking on cleanup or restoration 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 happened and what you know about the damage and access.
- We discuss the property and give you a written cash offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to proceed, a title company handles the closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Local safety, repair, and permit contacts
Do not enter a structure that may be unsafe. Follow the directions of emergency responders, building officials, and utility providers responsible for the property. Before cleanup, repairs, demolition, or rebuilding, ask the office responsible for the address and planned work whether permits or inspections apply.
The City of Twin Falls and Twin Falls County have separate permit and inspection routes. City planning and the City’s area of impact are distinct geographic references; neither establishes the jurisdiction of an address we have not seen. Check the address with the appropriate office using the City Planning and Zoning page. These links describe construction and inspection resources, not a blanket permit or inspection requirement for selling an existing house.
- For a property within City jurisdiction, the City Building Safety Department is at 203 Main Avenue East, Twin Falls, Idaho 83301. See its inspection information and permit requirements for construction work.
- The County’s separate Community Development Services / Building Department is at County West, 630 Addison Avenue West, Suite 1101, Twin Falls, Idaho 83301. Confirm that the County is responsible for the property address.
If the property is in one of the City’s named historic districts — Downtown, City Park, or Warehouse — check the address and proposed work with the Historic Preservation Commission. The City publishes a Certificate of Appropriateness process; ask whether it applies to the specific work.
Compare rebuilding with selling as-is
Put the written repair scope and estimates, likely value after repairs, time and carrying costs, your insurer’s claim information, mortgage requirements, any applicable permit steps, and written sale terms side by side. Use details for this house rather than a general repair estimate.
The Twin Falls calculator compares estimated listing proceeds with what you may keep after costs. Its estimate is for comparing sale options, not a rebuilding budget or an insurance payment.
Just an estimate — the actual number could be more or less depending on the home's condition.
