Sell Your Birch Bay House for Cash. Year-Round Home or Second Home.Written Offer in One Business Day.

Yes. Send the address, photos and what you know about the house, and we review it from a distance. If we make an offer and you accept, you can sign in person or remotely, and the title or escrow company coordinates the paperwork. We may ask someone to walk through the house, so tell us who has a key.

We pay the closing costs on a sale to us, except your share of any transfer tax, and the purchase agreement sets this out. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission on a direct sale to us. Your mortgage payoff and any liens, delinquent taxes, HOA or association balances, agreed prorations and other seller obligations are deducted from your proceeds when applicable. The closing professional provides a settlement statement showing the charges and credits before closing. Transfer, deed, conveyance or similar taxes vary by state and locality. For a sale in Birch Bay: graduated state rate starting at 1.1%, plus a local rate, subject to the purchase agreement.

No. We can buy a house in any condition when the numbers work, and the offer reflects the repairs it needs. Leave anything you do not want to take. If we cannot make an offer on a particular house, we aim to tell you promptly.

In Washington, a sale like this is generally handled by a title or escrow company, which checks the title, arranges payoffs and holds the funds. We are not attorneys, so for legal questions about your sale, ask an attorney licensed in Washington. You can sign in person or remotely.

It can for a listing, since showings and photos look different in summer than in winter. A direct sale to Eagle does not depend on showings, so you can send the address any time of year. We review it and send a written offer within one business day, if the numbers work.

Often, yes. Delinquent property taxes and many recorded liens can be paid from the sale proceeds at closing, provided there is enough equity and the required payoff or release can be obtained. The title search or other closing review will identify items that must be paid, released or otherwise resolved. A disputed lien, an unavailable payoff or debts exceeding the available proceeds can delay or prevent closing unless the issue is resolved or the creditor agrees to another arrangement. Tell us what you know upfront so the closing professional can investigate it early.

It depends on how title was held and Washington law. Property held in the deceased owner's name alone may require probate or another estate procedure before anyone has authority to sign a deed. Property held in a trust or with survivorship rights may pass outside probate. A probate or estate attorney licensed in Washington should confirm who has authority and which procedure applies. We can evaluate the property and make an offer while that is being established, but we cannot close until someone has legal authority to sign.

We buy mobile homes only when they are sold together with the land they sit on. If you own both the home and the land, send us the address and we will review it.

Selling a property as-is does not automatically eliminate disclosure obligations under applicable federal, state or local law. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, electrical system, foundation, environmental conditions and any past damage or repairs so we can evaluate the property accurately and address known issues in writing before you sign. A real estate attorney licensed in Washington can confirm which disclosures apply.

A cash offer is usually lower than the price a fully repaired home could reach on the open market, because the buyer takes on the repairs, the holding costs and the risk of reselling. In return you skip the repairs, the showings and the wait. A listing agent's commission is usually between 5% and 6% of the sale price, and it is negotiable. If you have the time and the money to put the house right first, listing it with a good local agent may bring a higher price, and we try to tell you when that is the case.

Often, yes. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. Some owners need to wait for their next home, and we can usually work around that when the purchase agreement sets it out.

Eagle may purchase the property itself or, if the purchase agreement permits, assign its contractual rights to another investor or purchasing entity. Any assignment right is stated in the agreement before you sign. The agreement also states the price, closing date or timeline, contingencies and other material terms. The closing is handled by the title company, escrow holder, settlement agent or closing attorney used for the transaction.

A sale may help avoid a foreclosure sale if it closes in time and the proceeds are enough to satisfy the required payoff, or if the lender gives written approval to accept less. In Washington, a home loan secured by a deed of trust is generally foreclosed by a trustee's sale rather than through a court case. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the trustee or the court, the timing and whether the transaction closes. Contact us as early as possible and bring every notice you have so we can usually tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in Washington can explain your legal options and deadlines. At Eagle, we can help only if there are at least 3 weeks before the auction date and you can send paperwork quickly and help the title company close fast. Our Washington page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.

At Eagle, our policy is to have everyone on the deed and every decision maker on the call when we present the offer, so they can decide together whether to move forward. A spouse, relative or attorney can make the first contact. Everyone whose signature or authorization is required will need to sign the purchase agreement.
