From first conversation to settlement
The sale, step by step
Tell us what you know about the house
Start with the Wildwood address, the house’s condition, who lives there, and your timing. Tell us about any estate, mortgage payoff, lien, tax notice, or other question on your mind. You can call or use the form before every property detail is settled.
Talk through the property and your choices
We ask about the house as it stands, including 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 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 property-specific terms before you decide whether to proceed.
Work through title, signing authority, and payoffs
The title company checks ownership, who can sign, mortgage payoff information, liens, taxes, and the documents needed for closing. We talk through occupancy, access, belongings, and moving timing with you.
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.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
Compare the written terms for your house, then choose the path that works 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.

Missouri estate questions
Who can sign for an inherited house?
Wildwood is in western St. Louis County. City of Wildwood location information. The personal representative appointed by the probate court—an executor or administrator—handles the estate sale; an heir cannot sign for the estate just because they inherited the house. In independent administration, the representative generally can sell estate real estate without a separate court order, within the will’s limits and for the estate’s benefit. In supervised administration, a sale generally follows a court order. If the will gives the executor power to sell, the executor may act under that power.
If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one. We can talk through the papers you have and work with the title company on the sale.
Closing numbers
Missouri sale taxes and deed-recording fees
Missouri’s Constitution bars the state, counties, and other local governments from imposing new taxes on real-estate sales or transfers after December 2, 2010.
Deed recording fees still apply: state law sets the recorder’s charge at $5 for the first page and $3 for each additional page, plus per-document fees. The title company or closing professional confirms the exact recording charges. St. Louis County Recorder of Deeds.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.
