From the first conversation to settlement

The sale, step by step

Tell us what you know about the house
Start with the address, the house’s condition, who lives there, and your timing. If an estate, notice, loan payoff, lien, or tax issue is part of the picture, tell us what you know so far. You do not need every answer before the first conversation.
Talk through the house and your choices
We talk about repairs, occupancy, access, and timing, then explain the sale choices that fit the house. You can compare them with listing, repairing, waiting, or another option.
Read the written offer and terms
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. Read the price, responsibilities, possession, timing, costs, and any property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed.
Work through title and payoffs
If you choose to proceed, we work with the title company on ownership, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and the papers needed for closing. We talk through access, occupancy, belongings, and timing with you as the details come together.
Review the settlement sheet and close
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. Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.

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

Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers

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.

Pickerington and Fairfield County details

Property addresses and estate paperwork

Some Pickerington mailing addresses are outside city limits. If a city office or notice is part of the sale, share the address with us. Not sure which office is involved? Call us — we’ll sort it out with you.

In Ohio, an appointed executor can sell without a court order if the will gives them that power (Ohio Rev. Code §2113.39 ↗). If it does not, a written-consent option may be available unless the will forbids it: the surviving spouse and all beneficiaries named in the will—or all heirs if there is no will—must consent in writing and file those consents with probate court, and the price must be at least 80% of the house’s appraised value in the approved inventory. This option is unavailable if the surviving spouse or any beneficiary or heir is under 18 (Ohio Rev. Code §2127.011 ↗). We can talk through the papers with you. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

The Fairfield County Auditor handles property-transfer and conveyance-fee information; the County Recorder records deeds. If you move forward, the title company works through ownership, signing authority, and payoffs with you.

The Fairfield County Auditor can answer questions about the local amount. Ohio conveyance fee: When you sell to us, we pay it.

Pickerington sale-process questions

Can I call before every detail about the house is settled?

Yes. Start with the Pickerington address and what you know about the house, who lives there, and your timing. We can talk through other questions as they come up.

Who can sign when a house is part of an Ohio estate?

If the will gives the appointed executor power to sell, the executor can sign without a court order to sell under Ohio Rev. Code §2113.39. If it does not, a written-consent option may be available unless the will forbids it: the surviving spouse and all beneficiaries named in the will—or all heirs if there is no will—must give written consent and file those consents with probate court, and the price must be at least 80% of the house’s appraised value in the approved inventory. That option is not available if the surviving spouse or any beneficiary or heir is under 18 (Ohio Rev. Code §2127.011).

How do I see the money breakdown before closing?

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.
