How Selling Your House to Us Works
No mystery, no fine print. Here's the entire process from first contact to money in your account, including the part most companies won't show you: how the offer is actually calculated.
You'll work directly with Eric and Carson, the owners, not a call center.
Step 1: Tell Us About the Property (2 minutes)
Start with the short form or a phone call. We'll ask for the address, the general condition, and your ideal timeline. You don't need exact answers. "The roof is old and I want to close before winter" is plenty to get started.
Step 2: We Research, Then Talk
Before we ever quote a number, we research recent comparable sales around the property, local market conditions, and what a full renovation would realistically cost. Then we schedule a walkthrough, in person or by video if you're out of state. One visit is all we need. There are no repeated showings and no open houses.
Step 3: You Get a Written Offer With the Math Shown
Within about 24 hours of the walkthrough, you'll have a written cash offer. Here's the formula behind every offer we make:
Offer = After-Repair Value − Repair Costs − Selling & Holding Costs − Our Margin
- After-Repair Value (ARV): what the house would sell for fully renovated, based on real comparable sales, not a guess.
- Repair costs: an itemized estimate of what it takes to get there.
- Selling & holding costs: taxes, insurance, utilities, and resale costs we'll carry after buying.
- Our margin: we're a business, and we'd rather show you the number than pretend it doesn't exist.
A cash offer will be below full retail price. That's the honest trade-off for speed, certainty, and zero fees or repairs. Our cash offer calculator lets you compare the likely net from both paths, because commissions, repairs, and months of holding costs eat into a "full price" listing more than most sellers expect.
Step 4: Close on Your Schedule
Accept the offer and we open escrow with a licensed title company or closing attorney in your area. They handle the deed, payoff of any mortgage or liens, and the transfer of funds, the same neutral third-party process used in every legitimate sale. You pick the closing date: as soon as title work clears (often two to three weeks) or months out if you need time. On closing day you sign, and your proceeds are wired to you directly.
What You'll Never Deal With
- Repairs, inspections used to renegotiate, or cleaning
- Agent commissions or junk fees
- Buyer financing falling through at the last minute
- Pressure tactics or exploding "24-hour" offers

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to accept the offer once I get it?
No. Every offer is no-obligation, in writing, and doesn't expire in 24 hours. Take it to your attorney, compare it against listing with an agent, or just sit with it. We'd rather you make the right decision than a fast one.
What paperwork is involved?
A standard purchase agreement, then the normal closing documents prepared by the title company or closing attorney, deed, settlement statement, and payoff authorizations if there's a mortgage. You never sign over your deed outside of a formal closing, and we encourage sellers to have an attorney review anything they're unsure about.
What if the house has a mortgage, back taxes, or liens?
That's normal and usually workable. The title company pays your mortgage balance, tax debt, or liens out of the sale proceeds at closing, and you receive what's left. We'll factor those payoffs into the conversation upfront so there are no surprises on closing day.
Can you buy my house if I live out of state?
Yes. Video walkthroughs, remote notarization, and mail-away closings make it common for us to buy from sellers who never set foot in the property. Out-of-state inherited houses are one of the most frequent situations we handle.
