Here's exactly how it works.
No mystery, no runaround. Sell as-is, skip the showings, and close on your schedule. Here is every step, from the moment you reach out to the day you get paid.
The six steps
Most sellers go from first call to closing in a couple of weeks, faster if there's a deadline.
Reach out
Fill out the short form on this page. Tell us a little about the house and your situation. That's it. No documents, no commitment, and your information stays private.
We do our homework
We look at the property, recent sales of comparable homes nearby, and anything you tell us about the condition. Then we set up one quick walkthrough at a time that works for you. Don't clean and don't fix anything, we buy houses exactly as they sit.
You get a real offer, usually within 24 hours
We give you a written cash offer and walk you through how we got to the number: the comparable sales we used and how the home's condition factored in. Ask us anything. If the offer doesn't work for you, no hard feelings and no pressure.
Accept the offer
When the number works for you, say the word. We sign a simple purchase agreement, a couple of pages in plain English, and we get to work. From this moment the deal is our job to carry, not yours.
You pick the closing date
Need to close in days to beat a deadline? We can move fast. Need two months to figure out your next move? That works too. You set the timeline and we work around it.
Close with a local title company or closing attorney and get paid
Closing happens with a licensed Alabama title company or real estate closing attorney, the same neutral third party that handles any home sale. They pay off your loan, any liens, and any back taxes directly out of the proceeds, and the rest comes to you by wire or check. We pay the normal closing costs.
Everything that comes with selling to us
Zero fees
No commissions, no charges, nothing out of pocket. The offer is your number.
Sell 100% as-is
Any condition, any situation. We buy the house exactly as it sits.
No cleanup or repairs
Take what you want, leave the rest. We handle everything left behind.
Close in as little as 7 days
When there's a deadline and the title is clear, we move.
Move at your pace
Not in a hurry? Pick a closing date weeks or months out.
Closing costs covered
We pay the normal closing costs. Nothing to bring to the table.
How we come up with your offer
We start with what comparable homes near yours have actually sold for recently in good condition. From there we subtract the repairs and updates the house needs to get there, our costs to buy, hold, and resell it, and a reasonable margin, because we're a business and we'd rather be straight about that. What's left is your offer, and we'll show you each piece.
That means a cash offer is usually below what a fully updated house would list for. What you get in exchange is certainty, speed, no repairs, no showings, and no commissions. If your house is in great shape and you have time to wait, listing it may put more in your pocket, and we'll tell you when that's the case.
Listing with an agent vs. selling to us
| Factor | Listing with an agent | Selling it yourself | Selling to us |
|---|---|---|---|
| Repairs & cleaning | You pay for them | You pay for them | None, we buy as-is |
| Showings | Strangers through your home for weeks | You schedule and run them | One walkthrough |
| Commissions & fees | Agent commission + closing costs | Closing costs, often a buyer's agent fee | $0, we pay normal closing costs |
| Time to close | Often 60 to 90+ days | Hard to predict | As little as 7 days |
| Closing date | Whenever the buyer is ready | Whenever the buyer is ready | You choose it |
| Deal falling through | Common when financing or appraisal fails | Common when financing or appraisal fails | We pay cash, so it doesn't |
A cash offer is usually below full retail price. If your house is in great shape and you have time, listing may net you more, and we'll tell you that.
Buying process FAQ
How fast can you actually close?
If the title is clear, in as little as 7 to 14 days. If you need longer, we close whenever you're ready. Cash is what makes it fast: there's no lender approval or appraisal slowing things down.
Do I have to clean or fix anything?
No. We buy houses exactly as they sit. Take the belongings you want and leave everything else, furniture, junk, all of it. We handle the rest.
Does getting an offer cost anything or commit me to anything?
No and no. The offer is free, and plenty of people just want to know their number. If it's not the right move for you, no hard feelings.
I'm behind on payments and a sale date is coming. Can you still help?
Often, yes. A cash sale can close before the foreclosure sale and protect the equity you've built. The earlier you reach out, the more options you have.
Do you really pay the closing costs?
Yes. Your loan payoff and any liens come out of the sale proceeds at closing like any home sale, but the normal closing costs are on us. There's nothing for you to bring to the table.
What kinds of houses do you buy?
Any condition and any situation, anywhere in the Birmingham metro. Fire damage, inherited and full of belongings, tenants in place, code violations, foundation problems.
