Need to Sell Your House Fast?
When the clock matters, a job transfer, a foreclosure date, an estate to settle, the traditional 60-to-90-day listing process doesn't work. We make written cash offers in about 24 hours and close on your schedule, anywhere in the US.
You'll work directly with Eric and Carson, the owners, not a call center.
Why a Traditional Sale Takes So Long
A typical listed sale isn't slow because agents are slow, it's slow because of everything the process requires: prep and repairs before listing, weeks of showings to attract offers, then a 30-to-45-day escrow while the buyer's lender orders an appraisal and underwrites the loan. Any hiccup, a low appraisal, a financing denial, an inspection renegotiation, can restart the clock. Nationally, roughly one in twenty pending sales falls through, and the rate is higher for homes with condition issues.
A direct cash sale removes every one of those steps. No prep, no showings, no lender, no appraisal contingency. The only real timeline is title work, confirming ownership is clean and paying off any mortgage or liens, which typically takes two to three weeks.
How Fast Is Realistic?
| Milestone | Typical timeline with us |
|---|---|
| Written cash offer | ~24 hours after walkthrough |
| Title search & escrow | 1–3 weeks |
| Closing | As soon as title clears, or any later date you choose |
Be cautious of anyone promising a guaranteed close in 72 hours, a legitimate closing still requires a title search and formal escrow. What we can promise: no step in the process will ever be waiting on us.
Fast Doesn't Have to Mean Desperate
Speed is valuable, but it shouldn't cost you transparency. Every EZ Time offer comes with the math behind it, the after-repair value, repair estimate, and our margin, so you can judge whether the trade-off makes sense. For many sellers with market-ready homes and time to spare, listing nets more, and we'll say so. Use our cash offer calculator to compare your likely net proceeds both ways.
Common Reasons Sellers Need Speed
- Relocation or job transfer with a firm start date
- Foreclosure timelines where selling before the auction protects your equity and credit
- Inherited property that heirs want settled without months of carrying costs
- Divorce, where both parties need a clean, fast division
- Vacant houses bleeding taxes, insurance, and risk every month
Whatever the reason, the process is the same: tell us about the house, get a written offer with the math, and pick your closing date. If your situation has a hard deadline attached, say so in the first conversation so we can build the timeline backward from it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you realistically close on my house?
In most cases, two to three weeks from accepted offer, the time it takes a title company to complete a title search and prepare closing. If your title is already clean and the title company can expedite, it can be faster. If you need longer, we close whenever you choose.
Will I get less money because I'm selling fast?
A cash offer is below full retail value, that's true of every cash buyer, and anyone who says otherwise isn't being straight with you. But the comparison isn't offer vs. list price; it's your net after commissions (typically 5–6%), repairs, seller closing costs, and months of mortgage, taxes, and utilities while you wait. For houses needing work, the gap is often much smaller than sellers expect. We show you both numbers honestly.
What documents do I need to sell quickly?
Surprisingly few: a government ID, your mortgage statement if there's a loan, and any documents specific to your situation (for example, probate letters for an inherited house). The title company pulls the deed and lien records, you don't need to find your original paperwork.
Can I sell fast if my house has tenants or code violations?
Yes. We buy tenant-occupied properties (see our rental property guide) and houses with open code violations or permit issues. These complications affect the offer, not whether a sale is possible.
What slows a cash sale down, and can I prevent it?
Almost always title issues: an old lien nobody released, a deceased co-owner still on the deed, an unrecorded divorce settlement, or probate that hasn't been opened. None of these are dealbreakers, but each adds days or weeks. The best prevention is telling us everything you know about the property's history on the first call, the title company can start untangling issues immediately instead of discovering them mid-escrow.
