From the first conversation to settlement
The sale, step by step
1. Tell us about the house
Start with the Chatsworth address, the house’s condition, who lives there, access, and the timing you have in mind. If an estate, payoff, lien, tax account, tenant, or notice is part of the situation, tell us what you know. You can start before every property question is settled.
2. Talk through the property and your choices
We ask practical questions about the house as it stands, including condition, repairs, occupancy, access, ownership, and timing. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Then we can talk through the available sale paths and what still needs to be checked.
3. Read the written offer and terms
We'll give you a written cash offer within 24 hours. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed, compare another path, or stop before signing.
4. Work through title, authority, and payoffs
If you choose to proceed, the title company reviews the deed, ownership, who can sign, mortgage payoff information, liens, taxes, and the records needed for closing. Keep current statements, notices, and estate papers available. If an estate is involved, see our Chatsworth inherited-property guidance. For a scheduled mortgage sale or lien questions, see our foreclosure guidance and property-lien information.
5. Review the settlement sheet and close
The settlement sheet shows the sale figures, amounts due, applicable costs, and the amount scheduled for disbursement. We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers. If you proceed, you sign the closing papers through the title company. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. The Cash Offer is the direct purchase; EZ Sale goes to one of our partners. Compare the written numbers and choose the path that fits your house and priorities.
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.

A local detail that can matter
Chatsworth and Murray County are distinct local governments
Chatsworth is Murray County’s county seat, but the county plan treats the incorporated City of Chatsworth, Murray County, and the City of Eton as distinct local governments. Use the property address to identify which local office handles a city or county record question. Read the Murray County Joint Comprehensive Plan, page 15 →
Closing figures
Review what is due and what is scheduled for you
Georgia real-estate transfer tax is based on the sale price: $1 for the first $1,000 or fraction, then 10 cents for each additional $100 or fraction. Georgia law makes the seller legally liable, although the sales contract can assign payment to the buyer. The deed generally cannot be recorded until the tax is paid, and statutory exemptions may apply. The deed filer should check the transaction against the current rules. Read Georgia Department of Revenue’s real-estate transfer-tax guidance →
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Georgia real-estate transfer tax. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate and can affect what remains for you at settlement.

When the process gets difficult
We stay with the process
It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.
