Eagle Cash Buyers completely saved my peace of mind and sanity. From the initial contact throughout the entire process they, especially Kelly, have been nothing but professional and informative.
Eagle Cash Buyers LLC provided professional service. They were easy to work with, and were available with prompt communication throughout the process. I look forward to working with them again.

Central Homeowners We Help
Central sellers come with different houses and different reasons. Some own a house they have outgrown, some inherited one from a relative, and some are tired of managing a rental. Here are the situations we hear most.
A House That Needs Repairs
Roofs, kitchens, flooring and old systems cost money and time before a traditional listing. We buy as-is, so you can skip the contractor quotes and the repair list. Send the address and tell us what you know about the condition.
A House Hurt by Flooding
Central was one of the areas of East Baton Rouge Parish that sustained significant flooding in the August 2016 Louisiana floods. If a house has flood damage or a past flood history that makes listing hard, we can still make an offer as-is. Tell us what happened and what has been repaired.

An Inherited House
A house passed down by a relative can sit empty while the family sorts out who decides what. We can wait for the paperwork you need and close on a date that suits the family. Louisiana has its own succession process, so an attorney or notary can confirm the steps for your situation.

A Rental With Tenants
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to move out. We buy houses with tenants in them. In Louisiana, what happens to a lease after a sale depends on its terms and on how Louisiana law treats it, so send us a copy if you have one.

Moving Soon or Already Moved
A job change or a move out of state makes carrying two homes hard. Pick a closing date that fits your schedule; most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can go later. You can handle most of it by phone, email and mail.

Behind on the Mortgage
Missed payments are stressful, and a listing takes time you may not have. A cash sale may help you settle your mortgage balance from the sale price if the price covers it. We will go over your numbers with you and you decide what to do.
Tell us about the property and you will hear back within one business day. Send it on a weekend and that means the next business day. There is no pressure either way.
Get My Cash OfferWhat the Numbers Actually Look Like - Cash Sale vs. Listing vs. Instant-Offer Programs
Sellers in Central are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs and repairs can all come out before you see a dollar. Here is how the three paths compare.
| Cost or Factor | Eagle Cash Buyers (Cash Sale) | Traditional Listing (Agent) | Instant-Offer Program (iBuyer) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agent Commission | None - $0 | Negotiable, not fixed. For illustration only, a typical 5% to 6% commission on a $300,000 sale is about $15,000 to $18,000 | Usually none, though a service fee often applies |
| Repairs Before Sale | None - we buy as-is | Often paid by you before listing, or given back in price, and buyers' inspections often ask for more | Often deductions for repairs after the inspection |
| Transfer Tax | Louisiana has no state transfer tax; recording costs still apply. Anything charged is shown on your settlement statement before closing | The same rules apply | The same rules apply |
| Seller Closing Costs | We pay the closing costs. Your mortgage payoff, any liens and prorated property taxes are paid from the sale proceeds. | Title, recording and closing fees, plus prorations; amounts vary by contract | A service fee set by each platform |
| Days to Close | Most close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time; you pick the date | Weeks on the market, then weeks more to close, and a financed buyer's loan can still fall through | Set by each platform, and instant-offer programs buy only in some areas |
| Showings and Inspections | No public showings. Walkthroughs and any reinspection are as set out in the agreement | Multiple showings, buyer inspection, possible renegotiation after inspection | Usually a company inspection, often with repair deductions |
| Financing Contingency Risk | No buyer mortgage contingency. Other contract terms still apply | Buyer financing can fall through weeks into the process | Low risk, but platform rules apply |
| Condition Required | We buy as-is - no updates needed | Buyers and agents expect move-in or near-move-in condition for top dollar | Varies - iBuyers often exclude significant distress |
Your actual net depends on your loan payoff, prorations and contract terms. We walk through it with you before you sign anything. Instant-offer terms vary by company and change often.
Skip the listing process. Close on your schedule, in Central, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered.
See What We'd PayA Real Call About a House
One caller, contacting us on a relative's behalf, said they were calling around to see which company would give the highest cash offer. Our acquisition manager walked through how an offer is built, from the home's market value to the repair work, the resale costs and the company's margin, instead of asking the homeowner to take the number on faith. The homeowner planned to have a real estate agent check the math. We think comparing offers is a good idea.
We are not saying this was a Louisiana homeowner, and we have removed anything that could identify the person.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with established Louisiana closing agents who coordinate the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the closing agent arranges. Here is how it runs.
Tell Us About Your Property
Call us at (833) 330-1625 or fill out the form on this page. We ask a few basic questions: the address, the condition and your situation. No obligation, no hard pitch. Tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, foundation and any past damage. See how our closing process works, start to finish.
Receive Your Cash Offer Within One Business Day
We look at the property, recent comparable sales in Central, and the repair costs, which we take off the price rather than asking you to do the work. You get a written cash offer with no agent commission. It shows the price, the contingencies and your estimated net before you sign. To weigh it against a traditional sale, our Louisiana page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title or escrow with the closing agent, who handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. Every cost is shown on your settlement statement before closing. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, depending on when the title work clears, or later if you need more time; you pick the date. Anything that could change the price after we agree is written into the agreement, so you can see it before you sign.
How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Central
These questions apply to us too. Any buyer should answer them plainly.
- Ask for proof of funds. A real buyer can show a bank letter or statement quickly. Ask us the same question. If we assign the contract, ask the closing buyer for theirs too.
- Ask whether they intend to assign the contract. Our answer: 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. Assignment itself is not the problem. What matters is whether the right to assign is disclosed, whether the buyer stays accountable under the agreement, and whether the closing structure and deadlines are clear before you sign. Ask any buyer to put those terms in writing.
- Never pay anything up front. No application fee, no inspection fee, no processing fee. If money is moving from you to the buyer before closing, stop.
- Look the company up. Search the buyer's name in the business registry of the state where it was formed, and check that it is active. Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC is registered in Ohio.
- Get the whole offer in writing before you sign, including who pays closing costs and what happens if the buyer walks.

Central and East Baton Rouge Parish Seller Questions
Central, Louisiana: What Sellers Ask Us First
Repairs, tenants, flood-damaged houses, mobile homes, timing, liens and probate, answered briefly.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Central house as-is?
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 Louisiana can confirm which disclosures apply.
How can I get my Central house to sell quickly?
A traditional listing needs prep, showings and a buyer whose financing comes through. Selling to a cash buyer is one of the faster selling options, since you skip the repairs and do not need to declutter or stage the home. You send the address, we make a written offer within one business day, and most sales close in 21 to 42 days.
How much does a realtor make off a $300,000 house?
Commissions are negotiated, but a common range is 5% to 6% of the price, which would be $15,000 to $18,000 on a $300,000 house. Those realtor fees come out of the sale along with other selling costs. When you sell to Eagle Cash Buyers there is no commission to pay.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Central house to you?
We pay the closing costs on a sale to us, 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 Central: Louisiana has no state transfer tax; recording costs still apply.
Do I need to make repairs before selling my Central home?
No. We buy houses as-is, so there is nothing to fix, clean out or stage first. Tell us about the condition when you send the address and we price the house on that basis.
Can you buy a Central house that flooded?
Yes, we can make an offer on a house with flood damage or a flood history, as long as it is not a mobile home without land. Tell us what happened, what has been repaired and what has not. Insurance or assistance claims can be a separate matter, so ask your insurer or an attorney before you sign if you have one open.
Do you buy houses with tenants in them in Central?
Yes. You do not have to end the lease or ask the tenants to leave first. In Louisiana, what happens to a lease after a sale depends on its terms and on how Louisiana law treats it, so send us a copy if you have it.
Do you buy mobile homes in Central?
Yes, when you own the land the home sits on. We do not buy a mobile home in a park or on a rented lot. If the home and land are yours, send the address and we will look at it.
How fast can you close on a Central house?
We make a written offer within one business day of getting your address and details. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can close later if you need more time. You choose the closing date.
Who handles the closing in Louisiana?
In Louisiana a home sale is usually signed before a notary, often through a title company or attorney's office, which prepares the act of sale and handles the paperwork. We work with the closing office and tell you what we need from you. An attorney can answer any questions about your own situation.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Central?
It depends on how title was held and Louisiana law. In Louisiana the court process for an estate is called a succession. A house in the deceased owner's name alone usually needs a succession, or another procedure Louisiana law allows, before anyone has authority to sign a deed. A Louisiana attorney or notary 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.
Can I sell my Central house with a lien or back taxes on it?
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.
Can selling my Central house to you stop a foreclosure?
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 Louisiana, a foreclosure generally goes through the court. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the court, the timing and whether the transaction closes. Contact us as early as possible and bring every notice you have so we can tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in Louisiana can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Louisiana page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Will Eagle Cash Buyers buy my house itself, or assign the contract?
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.
Do you buy houses all over Central?
We buy houses across Central and East Baton Rouge Parish, in any condition. The one exception is a mobile home, which we buy only with the land. Send the address and we will confirm.
Eagle Cash Buyers is not a law firm, title company or tax advisor. This information is general and is not legal, title or tax advice. Laws, procedures and transaction costs vary by state and locality, and the purchase agreement and closing documents control each transaction.
