Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions Southwest Florida homeowners ask us most.
How fast can you close?
Because we pay cash, there is no lender approval to wait on. You choose the closing date: sooner if you need speed, or later if you need time to move.
Do I need to make repairs or clean the house?
No. We buy houses as-is. You can leave behind anything you don’t want, and we handle the cleanout and repairs after closing.
Are there fees or commissions?
There is no agent commission when you sell directly to us. Before you sign anything, we go over every number in writing so you know exactly what you will walk away with.
How do you come up with your offer?
We look at the home’s condition, the repairs it needs, recent sales of similar homes nearby, and our costs to buy, hold and resell. We walk you through how we got to the number.
Will your offer be lower than market value?
Usually, yes. A cash offer on an as-is house reflects the repairs, holding costs and risk we take on. In exchange, you skip repairs, showings, commissions and months of waiting. We will help you compare both options honestly.
Do I have to accept your offer?
No. Every offer is free and comes with no obligation. If listing with an agent would get you more, we will tell you, so you can choose what is best for you.
What if I still owe money on my mortgage?
That is common. The title company pays off your mortgage and any liens from the sale proceeds at closing, and you receive the remaining balance.
Can you help if I am behind on payments or facing foreclosure?
Often, yes, if there is still time before the sale date. The sooner you call, the more options you have. We can also explain other paths so you can make an informed decision.
Can you buy an inherited house or a house in probate?
Yes. We buy inherited homes and homes going through probate, and we coordinate with your attorney and the title company on timing.
Do you buy houses with tenants?
Yes. We can buy a rental with tenants in place, so you don’t have to deal with move-outs or vacancies before you sell.
Do you buy storm- or flood-damaged houses?
Yes. We buy homes with hurricane, flood, wind and water damage as they sit, including homes with open insurance claims. We will go over how a claim affects the sale.
What areas do you buy in?
We buy throughout Southwest Florida, including Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres, North Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, Estero, Naples, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda and North Port. See all areas we buy.
Are you real estate agents?
We are a real estate company that buys houses directly. When we buy your house, we are the buyer, not your agent, and every offer is yours to accept or decline.
