FAQ

Questions sellers ask us

Selling a house for cash is new to most people. Here are straight answers to the questions we hear most.

How do you decide what to offer for my house?

We look at the property's condition, the repairs it needs, and what comparable homes nearby have recently sold for. We walk you through that reasoning when we present the offer, so you can see how we arrived at the number.

Do I have to make any repairs or clean the house first?

No. We buy houses as-is. You don't need to fix anything, clean, or remove belongings. Take what you want to keep and leave the rest.

Are there any commissions or fees?

We don't charge agent commissions or service fees. Anything paid out of the sale at closing, such as an existing mortgage payoff or outstanding taxes, is itemized on the settlement statement before you sign.

Am I obligated to accept your offer?

Not at all. Our cash offer is free and comes with no obligation. You can take your time, compare it with other options, or simply decline.

How fast can you close?

Because we pay cash, we don't wait on a lender's approval or appraisal, so closings can move much faster than a traditional sale. Most importantly, you choose the date. If you need more time to move, we build that in.

What areas do you buy in?

We buy houses throughout North Jersey, including Union, Essex, Morris, Passaic, Bergen, and Hudson counties. If you're nearby and not sure whether we cover your town, just ask.

Can you buy a house that has tenants living in it?

Yes. We can buy rental properties with tenants in place. You don't need to wait for a lease to end before selling.

Will you put a sign in my yard or list my house publicly?

No. We buy directly, so there are no signs, listings, open houses, or strangers walking through your home.
