How selling your house for cash works

Selling to a cash buyer skips most of what makes a traditional sale slow and stressful: repairs, staging, showings, inspections, appraisals, and waiting on a buyer’s mortgage. Here is exactly what happens from the first call to the day you get paid.

1. A short conversation

You fill out the form or call us. We ask about the house (size, condition, any known problems) and what you need: a quick closing, time to move, help with belongings, or a solution for tenants. There is no cost and no commitment.

2. A quick look at the property

We schedule one visit at a time that works for you (or a video walkthrough if you are out of town). This is how we estimate repair costs. You do not need to clean or fix anything first.

3. A written cash offer

We compare the house to recent nearby sales, estimate the repairs, and send you a written offer, usually within 24 hours. We explain how we reached the number. If your house would sell for meaningfully more on the open market, we will tell you.

4. Title work with a local title company

If you accept, we open title with a licensed Florida title company. They check for mortgages, liens, and back taxes, and handle payoffs so the property transfers cleanly. If there is a probate or title issue, we help you work through it.

5. Closing and getting paid

You pick the closing date. Closings can often happen in person, by mobile notary, or by mail if you live out of state. Your proceeds are paid at closing by wire or check from the title company.

Will you buy the house yourselves?

Usually. In some cases we assign our purchase contract to a partner investor who closes on the same terms. Your price and closing date do not change, and we disclose this in writing before you sign anything.

Simple 3-step process

How selling your house to us works

  1. 1

    Tell us about the house

    Fill out the short form or call us. We ask a few questions about the property and your timeline. No pressure and no obligation.

  2. 2

    Get a fair cash offer

    We look at recent sales nearby and the repairs the house needs, then give you a written cash offer, usually within 24 hours of seeing it.

  3. 3

    Close when you are ready

    Pick your closing date: as little as 7–14 days when the title is clear, or later if you need time. We close with a local title company in Polk County and you get paid at closing.

Selling to us vs. listing with an agent

Listing can get a higher price for a house in great shape. For houses that need work, or sellers who need speed and certainty, a direct cash sale often nets about the same once costs are counted.
