Sell Your House Fast in Duarte, CA. Foothill House, Bought As-Is.

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 Duarte: county tax of $0.55 per $500 of value (about $1.10 per $1,000); some charter cities add their own, subject to the purchase agreement.

A direct cash sale is usually the quickest route, because there are no showings and no wait for a buyer's mortgage approval. At Eagle, we send a written cash offer within one business day. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. The timeline depends on title, liens, mortgage payoffs and the closing provider.

The closing is handled by a licensed title or escrow company. In California that is usually an escrow or title company. It checks the title, arranges payoffs, collects signatures and pays your proceeds at closing. You can usually sign in person or, as the escrow or title company arranges, sometimes remotely.

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 the offer, what you still owe and the costs on your side. Your mortgage payoff and any liens, taxes or other seller obligations come out of the proceeds, and the closing professional gives you a settlement statement showing every charge before closing. Your cash offer is usually lower than a fully repaired house could reach on the open market, since the buyer takes on repairs and risk. Compare it with what a listing would net after repairs, commission and months of carrying costs.

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 take a look. If the home does not come with the land, it is not something we can buy.

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.

Often, yes, if the numbers work. A vacant house still has taxes, insurance and upkeep to pay, and it can be hard to look after from a distance. Send us the address and any details you know about its condition. We may ask for photos or a walkthrough before the offer is final.

We look at what the house would likely sell for after repairs, recent sales nearby, the work it needs and the costs of holding and reselling it. Some houses need photos or a walkthrough before the offer is final. There is no obligation to accept, and nothing is binding until you and Eagle sign a purchase agreement.

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.

No. We buy houses as-is, including ones that need major repairs, when the numbers work. Leave what you do not want to take. If you plan to list instead, repairs and cleaning are the part that usually costs the most time and money.

Often, yes, if the numbers work. We can buy a rental with tenants in place. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing and what happens next depends on the lease terms. Tell us about the lease and the rent early so we can look at it before we make an offer.

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.

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 may make the first contact. Everyone whose signature or authorization is required should be part of the final decision.

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. 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 California page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
