What People Say About Working With Us
Quick and efficient! I highly recommend!
Cannot recommend Mr. Oren and his team enough if you have a property or home that you are looking to sell fast. The professionalism and transparency they show is not comparable to other cash home buyers. From the point of initial contact all the way to closing day, the team at Eagle Cash Buyers kept their word with consistent updates throughout the process. Thank you for the integrity you have shown during this time of distress. Highly recommended.
Wonderful to work with and stayed in contact at all stages through the process. Thank you again for everything.
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.

Forrest City Homeowners We Help
Forrest City sellers come with very different houses and reasons. Some own an older house near downtown, some are managing an inherited property from another state, and some are simply comparing their options. These are the situations we hear about most.
An Older House Near Downtown
Older houses near the center of town can have older roofs, wiring or plumbing, or additions from earlier owners. If yours does, tell us what you know. We buy in the condition the house is in, and the offer reflects that condition.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
Selling a rental does not have to start with an eviction or a move-out date. We can look at a house with tenants living in it. An existing lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means for the tenant depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy when you have it.

An Inherited House
A house that came to you from a parent or relative can be hard to sell from a distance. We can make an offer while the paperwork is sorted out, but we cannot close until someone has legal authority to sign. An Arkansas probate or estate attorney can tell you who that is and what steps come first.

Fire or Water Damage
A house that has had a fire, a burst pipe or storm water inside may be hard to sell on the regular market. We buy houses with damage, and the offer reflects the work needed. Tell us what happened, whether an insurance claim is open and whether any repairs were started, so the offer is based on the real condition.

Behind on Payments or Property Taxes
Falling behind on a mortgage or on St. Francis County property taxes is stressful, and time matters. A sale may help, if it closes in time and the proceeds cover what is owed. Contact us early and bring any notices you have. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney can explain your options.
Selling From Out of Town
Plenty of Forrest City owners live elsewhere: someone who moved for work, a family that kept a parent's house, a landlord with a property far away. We work by phone, email and mail, and a title company or closing attorney handles the paperwork, so you may not need to travel to sell. Ask us how the signing would work for your situation.
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 Forrest City are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Arkansas 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 $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 |
| Arkansas Transfer Tax | $3.30 per $1,000 in total, two-thirds of it the buyer's by statute. 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 Forrest City, with no agent commission and the closing costs covered, apart from your share of any transfer tax.
See What We'd PayA Real Call About a House
One caller, phoning on behalf of a family member, said she was calling around to several buyers to see who would offer the most. Our acquisition manager walked her through how he arrived at his number, and she planned to have a local real estate agent check the math. We think that is exactly what a seller should do: compare offers, and ask each buyer to explain theirs.
We are not saying this was an Arkansas 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 Arkansas 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 Forrest 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 Arkansas 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 Arkansas 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.
How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Forrest 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 Forrest City
Original Town Blocks Near Downtown
The Encyclopedia of Arkansas says the town was surveyed on March 1, 1869, covering thirty-six blocks near the commissary site of the railroad builder. A house near the center may sit on one of those first blocks. If yours does, the year it was built, any additions and any past repairs are worth telling us up front, because we buy houses as they are, and what you tell us helps us price the offer accurately.
Forrest Street
Two houses with Forrest Street addresses are on the National Register of Historic Places: the Mann House at 422 Forrest Street, a Colonial Revival house built in 1913, and the Campbell House at 305 North Forrest Street, a Prairie School house built in 1917. If you own an older house on Forrest Street, its age and any later changes help us price it.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including encyclopediaofarkansas.net and en.wikipedia.org. Conditions vary from house to house.

Forrest City and St. Francis County Seller Questions
What St. Francis County Owners Ask Us Before Selling
Timing, closing costs, repairs, tenants, inherited houses and comparing offers, answered briefly.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Forrest 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 Forrest City: $3.30 per $1,000 in total, two-thirds of it the buyer's by statute, subject to the purchase agreement.
How long does it take to sell my Forrest City house to you?
You get a written offer within one business day. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and you pick the closing date, so it can be later if you need more time. The exact timeline is set in the purchase agreement and depends on the title work.
Can I sell my Forrest 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 Forrest City?
It depends on how title was held and Arkansas 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 Arkansas 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 Forrest 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. A real estate attorney licensed in Arkansas can confirm which disclosures apply.
Can selling my Forrest 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 Arkansas, 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 Arkansas can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Arkansas 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 mobile homes in Forrest 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 the home and the land are both yours, send us the address and the year of the home, and we will tell you whether we can make an offer.
Do I need to repair or clean out the house before I sell?
Usually not. We buy houses in the condition they are in, and the offer reflects the repairs a buyer would face. Personal belongings can often stay if you do not want to haul them out; tell us what is left in the house and we will talk through it before you sign.
Do you buy houses with fire or water damage?
We can. Send photos if you have them and tell us what happened. The offer reflects the damage. If an insurance claim is open or a lender is involved, that can affect timing, so let us know early and check with your insurer or lender about their requirements.
Can I sell a Forrest City house that has tenants in it?
Yes, we can look at a rented house. An existing lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms. Send us the lease, the rent amount and when it ends, and we will explain how it fits into the offer.
Do you buy houses in all parts of Forrest City, including ZIP code 72335?
We look at houses across Forrest City, including ZIP code 72335, and around St. Francis County. Whether we can make an offer depends on the property. A mobile home qualifies only when you own the land, and a few houses will not fit what we buy. Send the address and we will tell you either way.
Should I compare offers before I choose a buyer?
Yes. Ask every buyer for the offer in writing and for how they arrived at it, and ask what you would pay at closing and when the money reaches you. Ours comes in writing within one business day. If a local real estate agent can check the numbers for you, that can help too.
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.
