Who We Help
Selling a House That Needs Major Repairs
A new roof, foundation, wiring, or plumbing can be overwhelming. We buy houses as-is — you don't lift a finger. We can usually make an offer within an hour of speaking with you, often while we're still on the phone, and close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose. No cost, no obligation, no pressure.
What's going on
When a house needs major repairs — a new roof, foundation work, outdated wiring or plumbing, a failing furnace — the cost and the project management can be overwhelming. And if you're already dealing with a life change on top of it, fixing up the house to sell it the traditional way may not be realistic.
Here's how a direct sale works when a house needs work, and how it compares to your other options.
Your options
Selling to us is only one path. Here are the options most homeowners consider in this situation.
Fix it up, then list
Repairing the house first can get you a higher sale price, but it means spending money and time up front — and managing contractors — before you see a dime.
List it as a fixer-upper
Some buyers look for homes that need work, but they'll discount heavily for the repairs and may still ask for credits after inspection.
Sell as-is to a direct buyer
We buy houses as-is, so you don't fix anything. We factor the repairs into our offer, and you don't spend a dollar before we see it.
How we can help
- We buy as-is — no roof, no foundation, no wiring or plumbing repairs needed first.
- You don't spend anything on repairs or cleaning before we see it.
- We can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose.
- Our offer already accounts for the repairs, so there are no surprise credits or re-negotiations after an inspection.
