The sale, step by step
Tell us about the house
Start with the York address and what is happening with the property. Condition, occupancy, access, and timing help us talk about the actual house. You can call before every question is settled.
Talk through the property
We discuss the house as it is, including its condition, access, occupancy, and your timing. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Read the offer and terms before you decide
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. Before you commit, you get the written offer and clear written terms up front: price, timing, possession, costs, and property-specific conditions. Compare them and decide whether to proceed.
Work through title and closing details
If you choose to sell to us, the sale closes through a title company. We work with the title company to review ownership, mortgage payoff, occupancy, liens, and who can sign. The title company confirms the payoff figures and documents needed for settlement, and we work through property-specific questions with you.
Review the settlement sheet and close
We always review the settlement sheet with you 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
With a Cash Offer, we buy directly, with no listing-agent showings. EZ Sale goes to a partner; yes, partner visits.
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.

Closing numbers
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees.
Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate items on the settlement sheet. The title company lists them so you can see what comes out of the sale proceeds.
When the sale gets 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.
