Sell Your House Fast in Fort Myers, FL. A Written Cash Offer for Your Lee County House.

Send us the address and a few details about the house. We can usually send a written cash offer within one business day, if the numbers work. You can ask for the closing date that suits you, and we can close later if you need more time.

No. At Eagle, we buy houses in any condition when the numbers work, and the offer reflects the repairs a house needs. You can leave what you do not want to take. Whether we make an offer depends on the area, the value and whether the numbers work, not on condition.

Yes, in many cases. Storm damage, a roof leak or a burst pipe does not rule out a sale, and the repairs come off the price instead of being yours to pay for first. Tell us what happened and what has been done so far, and keep any insurance paperwork handy. We make an offer if the numbers work.

On the open market, speed usually depends on repairs, staging and finding buyers who can get a mortgage. A direct sale to a cash buyer skips most of that: there are no showings, and you do not have to repair the house first. Sellers who list with a good local agent and have both the time and the money to prepare the house may get a higher price, and we can usually say so.

We evaluate rentals with tenants in place, if the numbers work. 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, so send us a copy and the rent details.

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. If someone else signs for the owner, send us the paperwork early.

Your net proceeds are the sale price minus what you owe, such as a mortgage payoff, liens and prorated taxes. Cash offers are usually lower than what a fully repaired house could reach on the open market, and in return you skip the repairs and the showings.

Real estate agent commission is usually between 5% and 6% of the sale price, and it is negotiable and depends on the agent. As an illustration only, that range on a $305,600 house is about $15,300 to $18,300. A direct sale to Eagle has no agent commission.

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 Fort Myers: 70 cents per $100 of the price on the deed; the contract decides who pays.

We buy mobile homes only when they are sold together with the land they sit on. Send us the address and tell us who owns the land, and we can say whether it fits.

Yes. We can review the house from the address and any photos you have, and remote signing is available, so you can complete the paperwork from where you live. Tell us who has a key and whether anyone is living in the house, and we can usually tell you what else we need.

It can be when speed and convenience matter more than the top price. If your house is in good shape and you have both the time to wait for a buyer and the money to prepare it, listing with a good local agent may bring a higher price, and we can usually say so. If one of those is missing, a cash sale is often the simpler route.

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 how title was held and Florida 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 Florida 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.

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 Florida can confirm which disclosures apply.

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.

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 Florida, 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 usually tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in Florida 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 Florida page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
