How does the process work?

Once you contact us we set up a home assessment - either in person or virtually. We then give you a cash offer within 24 hours. If you accept our offer, we agree upon closing date that works for you. We specialize in quick closings. The traditional process of selling a home is slow and stressful. Our buying home process is quick and easy. We believe that selling your home should be a positive experience.

How do you determine a price?

As private home buyers, we know that what you want to know from us is the bottom line price. We look at current real estate market values and do an internal estimate of how much the needed renovations and repairs will cost. We also look at comparable homes that have sold in the area, and what we can get out of it once any home renovations or repair are completed.

What is a Private Home Buyer?

A Private Buyer is not a real estate agent, but rather someone looking to buy the home for themselves - either to renovate and sell, or hold as a rental property. We are private home buyers and you are dealing directly with us! Because there is no real estate agent, there are no commissions. We are able to purchase homes with cash, which allows for a quick closing period if needed. Private home buyers make the process easy, need only one walkthrough, and can make a fair offer right away.

Do you bring a bag of cash on closing?
