What People Say About Working With Us
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.
Experienced and trustworthy! It has been great to work with Oren from Eagle Cash Buyers.
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.
Allan was very helpful and the process was fast and easy. I highly recommend.

Daly City Homeowners We Help
Daly City sellers arrive with different houses and different reasons. Some own a mid-century tract home, some an older house near the original town center, and some are handling a rental, an inheritance or a house that needs work.
An Older House That Needs Work
Daly City has houses from many decades, from streets near the original town center to the planned tracts of the late 1940s and the 1960s. If yours needs a roof, wiring, plumbing or cosmetic work, you can sell it as it stands. Tell us what you know about the condition and we make our offer on the house as-is, so nothing has to be fixed first.
Fire, Water or Storm Damage
A house damaged by a fire, a burst pipe or a long leak can be hard to list, because some buyers who rely on a mortgage may not be able to get one for it. We look at damaged houses and base the offer on the house as it stands. If an insurance claim is open, tell us; the paperwork can affect timing.

A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to move out before you talk to us. We buy houses with tenants in them. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means for the tenants depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy and ask an attorney if you have questions.

An Inherited House You Do Not Want to Keep
Managing a house from a distance, or paying for one nobody lives in, wears on families. You can talk to us and get an offer while the estate paperwork is being sorted out. We can close only once someone has the legal authority to sign the deed, and an attorney can confirm who that is.

Payments Falling Behind
If mortgage payments have slipped, call or send the address early. Whether a sale makes sense depends on the amount owed, the price and how much time is left. We explain what a sale would look like on your numbers, and a housing counselor or attorney can help you compare it with other options.
Selling From a Distance
Some Daly City owners now live elsewhere after a move for work or a family change. You can send photos and details by form or phone. The title or escrow company handles the closing, and signing arrangements for an out-of-area seller are worked out with that company as the sale gets under way.
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 Daly City are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Documentary 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 $1,115,900 sale is about $55,800 to $67,000 | 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 |
| Documentary Transfer Tax | San Mateo County's documentary transfer tax is 55 cents per $500 of value, or fraction thereof, which the county states equates to $1.10 for every thousand dollars of value (smcacre.gov, checked September 2026). 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 Daly City, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered, apart from your share of any transfer tax.
See What We'd PayAn Example From a Real Call
One person who contacted us about a house was calling around to several cash buyers to see who would offer the most. Our acquisition manager explained how he reached his number, working from the home's market value and taking off estimated repairs, resale costs and a margin, and the offer he described was higher than the one the caller already held. We think comparing offers is a good idea, and the caller planned to have a real estate agent check the math.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with established California 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 Daly City, 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 California 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. The Documentary 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.
Daly City Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Daly City home at $1,115,900 in August 2026, 3.2% higher than a year earlier.
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole city. It says little about one house: the layout, the work it needs and how it has been kept up all move the price. A cash offer starts from the condition of your house, not from the citywide average.
If you are weighing a cash offer against listing the house, compare the two side by side. A listing may reach a different price, but it can involve repairs, showings and agent fees, and your closing date depends on the buyer. A written offer lets you set those against each other before you decide.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Daly City
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.

Neighborhoods and areas in Daly City
Westlake
The city's history page says San Francisco builder Henry Doelger bought some 600 acres of sand dunes and cabbage patches and built Westlake, which was annexed to Daly City in 1948. Wikipedia describes it as among the earliest examples of a planned, large-tract suburb, with rows of similar houses that inspired the 1962 song "Little Boxes." For a seller, that planned layout means houses on a block often share a floor plan, so it is easy to compare notes on what a particular house has and what it needs.
Serramonte
Wikipedia says Serramonte was developed beginning in 1963 by Fred and Carl Gellert's Suburban Realty Company on a former dairy ranch, and that Serramonte Center opened in 1968. It sits on the border of Daly City and Colma. For a seller, most houses here date from the 1960s, so how your own house has been kept up and updated says more about its value than the address does.
St. Francis Heights
The city's history page lists St. Francis Heights among Daly City's subdivisions. A neighborhood history says the first phase of development in St. Francis occurred in the late 1940s and 1950s and describes tract housing in orderly rows and cul-de-sacs. For a seller, that means a house here is likely one of a group built to similar plans, and we ask for photos and details of your own to see how it compares.
Top of the Hill
The city's history page says John Daly bought some 250 acres at the "top-of-the-hill," opened his farmland to refugees after the 1906 earthquake and subdivided his property in 1907. Daly City was incorporated in 1911. For a seller, houses near the original center may be of very different ages, so we look at each house on its own details rather than the street.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including dalycity.org, en.wikipedia.org and stfrancisdalycityneighborhood.org. Conditions vary from house to house.

Daly City and San Mateo County Seller Questions
Before You Sign: Daly City Seller Answers
Repairs, damage, tenants, mobile homes, closing, taxes, liens and inheritance, answered briefly.
Do I need to make repairs before selling my Daly City house?
No. We buy houses as they are, so you do not need to repair, clean out or stage anything first. Tell us honestly what the house needs, and the offer reflects its condition. If you would rather fix things and list the house, that is a legitimate choice, and we are happy to give you a written offer to compare.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Daly City 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. California sellers commonly complete a Transfer Disclosure Statement, which may apply to your sale. A real estate attorney licensed in California can confirm which disclosures apply.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Daly City 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 Daly City: San Mateo County's documentary transfer tax is 55 cents per $500 of value, or fraction thereof, which the county states equates to $1.10 for every thousand dollars of value (smcacre.gov, checked September 2026), subject to the purchase agreement.
Can I sell my Daly City 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 Daly City?
It depends on how title was held and California 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 California 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.
What happens to my tenants if I sell my Daly City rental?
We buy houses with tenants in them, so you do not have to end a tenancy first. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and how it affects the tenants depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease and the rent details, and ask a California attorney if you have questions about a tenant's rights.
Will you buy a Daly City house with fire or water damage?
We look at them, yes. Fire, smoke, flood and long-term leak damage all change what a house needs, so we ask for photos and a description, and the offer is based on the house as it stands. If an insurance claim is open, tell us about it early because it may affect timing.
Do you buy mobile homes in Daly City?
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 the home and the lot, send us the address and details and we tell you whether we can make an offer.
How fast will I get an offer, and when could I close?
Once we have the address and the details of the house, we send a written offer within one business day. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the closing date that suits you, and the agreement states the timeline before you sign.
Who handles the closing in California?
A title company or escrow company typically handles it. It runs the title search, holds the funds, arranges payoffs and records the deed. We explain which company is being used and what it will need from you, and you can ask a California attorney to review the paperwork if you prefer.
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 Daly City 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 California, 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 California can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our California page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Why might a cash offer differ from a listing price?
A listing price is what a house might sell for after preparation, showings, negotiation and the buyer's financing. A cash offer is built around the condition of the house and the buyer's own costs, and it comes with a firmer timeline. Ask each buyer to put the offer, the closing date and who pays which costs in writing, then compare.
Can I sell my Daly City house if I live somewhere else?
Yes. Many sellers handle the sale from a distance. You can send the address and photos by form or phone, and the title or escrow company arranges how you sign. Tell us early if you are out of the area so the closing steps can be planned around your schedule.
Do you buy houses in every part of Daly City?
We look at houses across Daly City, including Westlake, Serramonte, St. Francis Heights and the streets near Top of the Hill. Whether we can make an offer depends on the house and its details, and we buy mobile homes only when the seller owns the land. Send the address and we tell you where things stand.
