Chalmette Homeowners We Help
Chalmette sellers come with very different houses and reasons. Some are handling a family property, some own a rental, and some just want to skip months of showings and repairs.
A House That Needs Repairs
You do not have to fix the roof, replace the flooring or clear out the garage before selling. We buy houses as they are, and our offer takes the condition into account, so there is nothing to repair or stage first.
Flood or Storm Damage
If the house has water damage, mold or storm repairs that were never finished, you can still ask for an offer. Tell us what you know about the damage and we review the house as it stands. You do not need a contractor's estimate first.

An Inherited or Succession Property
Louisiana handles a deceased owner's property through succession. If you are working through one, send us the address and tell us where things stand. We explain what we need, and your attorney confirms the legal steps.

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. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means for your tenant depends on the lease terms.

Behind on the Mortgage
If payments have fallen behind, a quick sale may be one option to look at. Tell us where you are and what the timeline looks like. A foreclosure attorney or housing counselor can help you compare choices.
Moving on a Deadline
A job change, a move to be near family or a new house waiting on you can put pressure on the calendar. You pick the closing date. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can go later if you need more time.
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 Chalmette 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 $218,200 sale is about $10,900 to $13,100 | 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 Chalmette, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered.
See What We'd PayA Real Call About a House
One homeowner who contacted us had a spouse make the first call. Our acquisition manager noticed the inquiry was in the owner's name and asked whether she was able to take part. Because our policy is to talk with the owner before anything moves forward, a three-way call was scheduled for once the spouse was back home with the owner.
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 Chalmette, 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 Chalmette
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.

Chalmette and St. Bernard Parish Seller Questions
Questions Chalmette Owners Bring to Us Before Selling
Succession, flood damage, tenants, mobile homes, liens and closing costs, answered briefly.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Chalmette 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 Chalmette: Louisiana has no state transfer tax; recording costs still apply.
Can I sell my Chalmette 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.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Chalmette?
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.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Chalmette 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.
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.
Can selling my Chalmette 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.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Chalmette?
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 you own both, send the address and tell us about the home and the lot.
My house has flood damage. Can you still make an offer?
Yes. We buy houses in any condition, including ones with water damage or unfinished storm repairs. Tell us what you know about the damage and send the address. We review the house as it stands and give you a written offer within one business day.
I have a tenant in the house. Can you still make an offer?
Yes. We buy houses with tenants in them, so you do not need to wait for a lease to end. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms.
Both my spouse and I are on the title. Do we both have to sign?
If both names are on the title, both owners generally take part in the sale. We talk with the owner before anything moves forward, and we can set up a three-way call if one of you is away. A title company or attorney confirms who must sign.
Is it possible to sell a house quickly?
Yes. Selling to a cash buyer skips the listing, showings and a buyer's mortgage approval. Our written cash offer comes within one business day, and most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time.
Can someone else make the first call for me?
Yes, a spouse or relative can reach out first. The owner then joins the conversation before anything moves forward. The first call is basic: we ask about the property, its condition and your situation.
How do you calculate my cash offer?
We look at the condition of the house, the repairs it may need and what similar homes in the area have sold for. You get the offer in writing within one business day, and you decide whether to accept it.
