The sale, step by step
From the first conversation to settlement
Tell us about the house
Start with the Tuckahoe address, the condition, who lives there, and the timing you have in mind. If an estate, payoff, lien, tax balance, or notice is part of the picture, tell us what you know. You can start the conversation before every property question is settled.
Talk through the property
We talk about the house as it stands, including repairs, access, occupancy, and what you want from the sale. 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
You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company. The written terms lay out the price, possession, responsibilities, timing, and costs before you decide whether to go ahead.
Work through title, signing, and payoffs
If you want to move forward, we work with the title company on ownership, signing papers, mortgage payoff details, liens, and tax balances. Tell us what you know about the house and papers, and we will work through the open questions with you.
Review the settlement sheet and close
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.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare the written Cash Offer and EZ Sale terms, then choose what works best for you.
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.

Useful local details
Henrico County estate and deed records
For a Henrico County house, the Circuit Court Clerk handles probate filings and deed records. In Virginia, real estate generally passes at death to the heirs or people named in the will. An executor can sell only after being appointed through the circuit court clerk and only if the will directs a sale or grants a power of sale, or a court grants that power. Otherwise, heirs or beneficiaries generally sign the deed together. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
A sale by heirs or beneficiaries within one year after death can be challenged by the deceased owner's creditors unless no court action over estate debts is started and no report of debts is filed within that year. A court-ordered sale in that first year is protected when the money goes to a court-appointed commissioner.

Closing numbers
Review the settlement sheet and closing costs
The settlement sheet shows the sale price, mortgage payoff, liens, taxes, closing costs, and the amount scheduled to go to you. The title company confirms the final numbers.
Virginia deed closings can include state recordation tax and local recordation tax where adopted. By law, grantor tax is 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value; the sale contract can shift who pays it. Exemptions and transfers with little or no consideration can change the amounts, and the settlement agent confirms the figures. Regional WMATA capital and congestion relief fees, and the regional transportation improvement fee, apply only in specified localities, not Henrico County.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.
No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees
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.
