Start with the address and what you know. Unknown details can be sorted out in the conversation.
From the first conversation to settlement
Start with the Ozark address, the house's condition, who is there, access, and the timing you are considering. Tell us what you know about an estate, mortgage payoff, lien, tax account, tenant, code notice, or deadline. You can start the conversation before every property question is settled.
We ask about the house as it stands, including condition, repairs, access, occupancy, and timing. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Read the written price and terms before you decide whether to proceed.
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. If you choose to proceed, the title company reviews the deed, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for this closing. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or other obligation. The title company confirms what the actual property and sale require.
The settlement sheet shows how the sale money breaks down. 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. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.
Two ways to sell to us
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.

Ozark and Dale County details
Ozark is Dale County's county seat, but a property described as being in Ozark should still be checked by its exact address. Confirm the parcel's municipality and which office handles the question; a mailing address alone does not establish that a property is inside the City of Ozark.
Closing numbers
The settlement sheet shows the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, other listed charges, and the amount scheduled for disbursement. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
Alabama charges deed tax when the deed is recorded with the county probate judge. The rate is 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or any part of $500. The taxable value may be reduced by a mortgage or vendor's lien on which Alabama mortgage tax has been paid; the closing attorney confirms that amount. The deed must include proof of the actual price or value. Without proof, the probate office uses the latest tax assessment, and penalties can apply. The tax and recording fees must be paid before recording.
When things get difficult
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.
“LISTEN, PROPERTY TAXES GOT TOO HIGH FOR MY FIXED INCOME. SOLD IT TO THEM. WALKED AWAY WITH CASH. GLAD IT'S OVER.”
“Facing foreclosure ... Very stressful time... They handled it professionally and got me out of the debt...”
“no open houses. no realtors tracking dirt in. just a straight cash sale for our house so we could move. Glad it's over.”
