Are you thinking about selling your house but don’t want a big fuss? Maybe you feel nervous about having a ton of strangers walk through your home. Or you worry about spending time and money fixing things before you list it for sale. If that sounds like you, we want you to know there is another way.

How Selling with a Realtor Works
Most people know what it’s like to use a realtor:

- The realtor tells you a price they HOPE you can get.
- You sign papers to list your house. 
- You clean, fix things, and get photos of your house put online.
- You have open houses and multiple showings where TONS of people come to look at your house, and you're supposed to be gone for ALL of these.
- You wait for offers and then negotiate on price, repairs, closing costs, and even when THEY want to finally buy the house.
-On average nationally, selling your home can take a total of 74 days to complete. From the day you sign with a realtor, to the day you get paid. (Source: Federal Reserve Economic Data).
-During this time, you might pay for extra bills and worry if your house will even sell for the price you want. 
- Finally you pay your realtor, and usually the bueyer's realtor too, then closing costs. After everyone else gets paid, you FINALLY get your check for the hassle of listing your house. 



How Selling to Us Works
When you sell to us, you do not have any of that stress. Here are some big differences:

- Our offer is the price you get at closing. 
- No Commissions: You keep all your money from the sale.
- No Repairs or Clean-Up: We buy your house as is.
- No open houses, you won't have a hundred people walking through your house
- No Waiting: We make a fair cash offer fast, and YOU get to decide when you want us to buy your house.
- No Surprise Fees: We pay ALL closing costs and fees, so you don’t have to worry about hidden bills.

Working with a cash buyer allows a lot of flexibility that some people need when selling their house. Whether you don't want to pay a realtor, don't want to spend money making your house perfect, or even if you need to stay in the house after selling to help you find somewhere else to go, we can help. 

We offer custom solutions for every home owner that chooses to work with us based on their situation and needs. 


Stories of a Seller 

Family in Danger: We were contacted by a mom and kids who needed to leave a toxic and dangerous home. They were in an unfortunate situation that involved their kids being exposed to drugs and alcohol by a significant other, and needed a way out quickly.

The mom owned the house, but didn't want list with a realtor because she didn’t want the other person to know they were makings plans to leave. She was worried for their safety is the person found out.This mom and her family needed a quick, private, discreet sale.

We discussed with her how the process needed to work for her, she gave us her timeline and what she needed from us, and we were able to make it happen!

In 23 days we were able to help her from feeling trapped in a no-win situation, to having the cash to buy a safe place to live for her and her children. 


Elderly Widow with Vacant Houses:
We were fortunate to get in touch with an elderly widow who was looking forward to retirement in a few months.  One of her biggest stresses though was that she had two empty houses she didn’t know how to sell or take care of.

Her husband had died 12 years earlier, and had been the one to manage everything with them.Since he passed, she was scared of what to do with them, so they just sat empty, costing her money in taxes and utilities. 

She was scared about making the wrong choice and didn’t trust the process of hiring an agent. We showed her all her options, even how a realtor might help.
We connected her with local realtors so that she had multiple opinions on what her properties could be worth. 

In the end she chose to work with us because our process was easy and she just wanted zero stress. By providing resources for her to make an informed decision, she was able to make the best decision for herself.
