From the first conversation to settlement
The sale, step by step
Start with what you know about the house
Start with the Pittsburg address, the condition, who lives there, access, and the timing you have in mind. Mention an estate, payoff, lien, tax account, or notice if it is part of the situation. You can start the conversation before every property question is settled.
Talk through the property as it is
We ask practical questions about the house, 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.
Read the written offer and terms
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. 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 property-specific conditions before you decide whether to proceed, compare another path, or stop before signing.
Work through title, signing authority, and payoffs
The title company reviews the deed, who can sign, mortgage payoffs, liens, tax items, and the documents needed for closing. A payoff is the amount needed to satisfy a mortgage or other obligation; a lien is a claim for money tied to the property. The current amounts and instructions are confirmed for the sale.
Review the settlement sheet and close
The settlement sheet lays out 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.
Compare the written numbers
Two ways to sell: Cash Offer or EZ Sale
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.

Pittsburg and Crawford County details
Check the local jurisdiction and Kansas recording charges
For a local property-code question, distinguish the City of Pittsburg from other Crawford County cities. The county lists Frontenac, Girard, Arma, and Cherokee separately. A Pittsburg mailing address alone does not confirm a parcel's municipal jurisdiction; check the actual address with the relevant office. See the Crawford County cities list ↗ and the City of Pittsburg Codes Enforcement ↗.
Kansas does not charge a real-estate transfer tax or deed tax. The state's mortgage registration tax ended on January 1, 2019. County recording fees set by state law are $21 for the first page of a deed or mortgage and $17 for each additional page, including the state's technology and heritage trust fund add-ons. The rates are the same in every county, but the total depends on the number of pages recorded. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact charges for the documents in your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
Before the signatures
Review the settlement numbers together
The settlement sheet lays out the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, costs, and 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. You're going to get a fair price and not have to do anything. Just show up at settlement.
When things get 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.
