Yes. We buy with our own funds, so there is no appraisal and no financing contingency. We will show proof of funds on request.
As few as 7 days once you accept. If you need more time, you choose the date. We have closed in a week, and we have waited two months. Your call.
None. No agent commission, no listing fees, and we cover standard closing costs. The number we offer is the number you get.
Leave them. We buy as-is, including roof, foundation, plumbing, and cosmetic work. You do not fix or clean anything.
We look at recent sales near you, your home’s condition, and what it takes to get it market-ready, then make a fair cash number. We will walk you through how we got there.
No. We buy across Fremont, the South Bay, and the East Bay, including Newark, Union City, Hayward, Milpitas, San Leandro, San Jose, and Castro Valley. Not sure if you are in our area? Ask.
