I received the utmost help from Ms. Kelly with my home. She really went out of her way to help me. I can say she is truly an angel. There are still honest and trustworthy people on this earth.
I have worked with Eagle Cash Buyers on several deals both personal and investments. They work well with swiftness and professionalism. Their team is friendly and easy to work with!
It was a pleasure working with Eagle Cash Buyers, they helped with a complicated journey for the sale of my mother's estate. Thank you Kelly.
We sold our home to Eagle Cash Buyers. We needed to sell to an investor because we could not afford the cost of repairs. Eagle Cash Buyers stuck to the agreed on price even after finding more damage with the house than originally discussed. Oren communicated with us every step of the way. Thanks to Eagle Cash Buyers for buying our house and helping us move on with our life.

Columbus Homeowners We Help
Columbus sellers come to us in very different situations. One has orders out of Fort Benning and a report date that will not move. Another has a parent's house in Wynnton full of furniture, or a rental in North Columbus with tenants partway through a lease. The details decide how the sale runs, and selling for cash in Georgia is simpler when the buyer plans the sale around yours.
PCS Orders From Fort Benning
Orders come with a report date, and a financed buyer's loan approval does not always fit around it. If your report date is far enough out, we can set the closing for the week before you leave; if not, you can sign after you have gone, by mail or with a mobile notary. If the house has a VA loan, the closing attorney orders the payoff and pays it from the sale proceeds, provided the price covers the balance.

An Older House, 1920s to 1940s
Many Columbus houses were built between the 1920s and the 1940s, among them the Craftsman bungalows of MidTown's historic districts. At that age a house may still have original wiring, old plumbing or a roof near the end of its life, and a buyer's inspector will list every item. We price that work into the offer instead, so nothing has to be fixed before you sell.

Inherited a House in Muscogee County
Many inherited Columbus houses come with a lifetime of belongings still inside. You can leave what you do not want. Who is allowed to sign the deed depends on how the title was held, and a Georgia probate attorney can confirm it. We can make an offer while that is being sorted out.

Foreclosure Letters Have Started Arriving
Most Georgia foreclosures are handled without a court case, so the time between the first notices and a sale date can be shorter than owners expect. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney can go through your options with you. A sale that closes before the foreclosure date pays off the loan if the price covers what you owe; if it does not, the lender must agree to accept less. Send us every notice early, because the date on them decides whether our timeline can work.

A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to leave. We buy occupied houses, and the lease and the tenants' rights pass to the buyer at closing, whether that is us or the partner named in the agreement.

A Vacant House You Look After From Away
A house that has sat empty since you moved still needs its lawn cut, its insurance renewed and someone checking it after a storm. We buy it as it is, and you can sign from wherever you now live. The closing attorney sends the documents or arranges a notary near you, and your proceeds are wired to you once the sale closes.

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 Columbus are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Georgia Transfer Tax 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 $249,735 sale is about $12,500 to $15,000 | 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 |
| Georgia Transfer Tax | About $1.00 per $1,000; by Georgia custom the seller pays, though the contract controls. Your share is paid from your proceeds, as set out in the purchase agreement and shown on your settlement statement | The same tax applies | The same tax applies |
| Seller Closing Costs | We pay the closing costs, except your share of any transfer tax. 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 Columbus, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered, apart from your share of any transfer tax.
See What We'd PayThree Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with Georgia attorneys and title companies who coordinate the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the closing attorney or title company 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 Columbus, 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 Georgia page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title with the closing attorney or title company, who handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. The Georgia Transfer Tax and every other cost are 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.
Columbus Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Redfin put the median sale price in Columbus at $249,735 for the three months ending August 2026, 1.9% higher than a year earlier. The median home spent 34 days on the market, against 22 a year before. That is a single figure for the whole city, and it says little about one particular house, especially one that needs work.
Twelve more days on the market does not sound like much, but it changes how buyers act. With more time and more choice, they look harder at condition, and a house with an older roof, original wiring or a dated kitchen is the one that gets the lower offers and the repair requests after the inspection.
A buyer using a VA or FHA loan brings an appraiser who checks the house against that program's minimum property standards. Peeling paint, a failing roof or a missing handrail can stall the loan until the repair is made, and the buyer usually asks the seller to make it. A cash offer has no buyer's lender and no loan appraisal, so no appraiser can hold up the sale over repairs; the price, terms and closing date are in the written agreement, along with anything that could change them.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Columbus
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.

We buy across consolidated Columbus-Muscogee County, from Green Island Hills above Lake Oliver down through MidTown and Lakebottom to the downtown historic district and Bibb City. Whether your house is in 31901, 31904, 31909 or any other Columbus ZIP code, we cover it.
Neighborhoods and areas in Columbus
Wynnton Village
A National Register historic district in MidTown that grew from antebellum estates and a mid-1800s village center into streetcar suburbs after 1890 and subdivisions from 1919 through the 1940s. Styles run from Greek and Gothic Revival to Craftsman, Colonial Revival and English Vernacular Revival, with some apartment buildings put up for Fort Benning officers during World War II. A house here is priced on its own condition and recent sales nearby, not on the age of the street.
Lakebottom
The common name for Weracoba Park and the streets around it, part of the Weracoba-St. Elmo Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1994. The park's lake was drained in the mid-1920s, and the surrounding blocks hold a large concentration of Craftsman bungalows alongside Colonial Revival, Tudor and Spanish Revival houses. If a bungalow here needs its systems updated, you can sell it to us before doing any of that work.
MidTown
The residential and commercial area directly east of downtown, home to Aflac's headquarters and six National Register historic districts that together form one of the largest contiguous historic areas in the country. Most of its houses went up in the early twentieth century, with the busiest building years from the 1920s through the 1940s. We buy here whether the house has been restored or still has its original kitchen.
Columbus Historic District
The downtown district along the Chattahoochee River, listed on the National Register in 1969 and enlarged in 1988, with houses and buildings in Greek Revival, Italianate and late Victorian styles. It includes the antebellum Octagon House on 1st Avenue, a National Historic Landmark. An older downtown house can be sold to us as it stands, with the offer based on its own condition.
Green Island Hills
A north Columbus neighborhood on the Chattahoochee River and Lake Oliver, on land the Jordan Company bought in 1905; its first street, Mountainview Drive, was paved in 1926. The housing is a mix of homes from the 1960s to the present, in styles from Georgian and Tudor to Craftsman, with newer homes still being built. A larger or newer house sells to us the same way as any other: a written offer within one business day and a closing date you choose.
Bibb City
A former mill town built around the Bibb Manufacturing Company's Columbus Mill, incorporated in 1909 and made part of Columbus in 2000 after the mill closed. The former mill village is now the Bibb City Historic District, listed on the National Register in 2010. We buy these houses in whatever condition they are in, and you can leave behind what you do not want to move.
North Columbus
The city's suburban north side, made up of established neighborhoods and subdivisions and several shopping areas, and taking in Green Island Hills. Much of the housing here is newer than in MidTown or downtown. If you own a rental or a family home here, we can buy it with or without tenants in place.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including midtowncolumbusga.org, historiccolumbus.com and en.wikipedia.org. Conditions vary from house to house.
Main ZIP codes: 31820, 31829, 31901, 31903, 31904, 31906, 31907, 31909

Columbus and Fort Benning Seller Questions
From PCS Orders to Old Bungalows: Columbus Selling Questions
PCS moves, Georgia attorney closings, inherited MidTown houses, foreclosure notices and old bungalows, answered in plain terms.
I have PCS orders out of Fort Benning. Can you close before my report date?
Usually, yes. Most of our closings land between 21 and 42 days, and within that window you pick the day. If you have already left Columbus, you can sign by mail or with a mobile notary at your new post. Tell us your report date on the first call so the closing is set around it.
Who handles the closing in Georgia, and do I need my own attorney?
In Georgia a closing attorney normally conducts the closing. The attorney runs the title search, pays off your loan and anything else owed from the proceeds when the price covers them, records the deed with Muscogee County and sends you the balance. You are welcome to have your own attorney review the agreement, and for an estate, a title problem or a foreclosure it is a good idea.
Can selling my Columbus 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 Georgia, a foreclosure generally proceeds by a sale under the mortgage or deed of trust 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 sale process, 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 Georgia can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Georgia page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Columbus?
It depends on how title was held and Georgia 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 Georgia 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 Columbus 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.
How do you arrive at a cash offer on a Columbus house?
We start with what the house would sell for once repaired, using recent sales of similar houses close by, then subtract the cost of the work it needs and our costs to hold and resell it. A bungalow in Lakebottom and a 1990s house in North Columbus come out differently because their sales and repair lists are different. The written offer shows the price, the terms and your estimated net. It costs nothing, and you can turn it down.
Do you buy in Lakebottom, Wynnton, Bibb City and the rest of Columbus?
Yes. We buy all over the city, from Green Island Hills and North Columbus through MidTown, Wynnton and Lakebottom to downtown and Bibb City, and everywhere else in Columbus-Muscogee County. Where the house is affects the price, not whether we will make an offer.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Columbus?
Yes, as long as the land is part of the sale. If you own the manufactured home and the lot under it anywhere in Columbus-Muscogee County, we make one offer for both. We do not buy a mobile home that sits in a park or on a rented lot.
My house is in good shape. Should I list it instead?
If it is updated and you have time, listing will probably net you more. Ask a local agent what it would sell for, take off the commission and any repairs a buyer will ask for, and compare that with our written offer. A cash sale makes the most sense for houses that need work, estates and moves on a fixed date.
How is selling to you different from selling to an iBuyer?
iBuyers tend to look for newer houses in good condition, and they usually take repair costs off the price after their own inspection. We also buy older and damaged houses, and the written offer shows what we will pay before you sign. The comparison table on this page sets both beside a traditional listing.
Who is Eagle Cash Buyers?
Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC buys houses for cash in 43 states, Georgia among them. We are BBB accredited and have 4.5 stars from 40 Google reviews, not all of them five stars. We either buy the house ourselves or assign our contract to a partner investor, and the agreement says so before you sign.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Columbus house to you?
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 Columbus: about $1.00 per $1,000; by Georgia custom the seller pays, though the contract controls.
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.
