Sell Your House Fast in Foster City, CA. Lagoon-Side Condo or Family Home.

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 Foster City: 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.

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.

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 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.

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 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.

Yes. Foster City has many condominium and cluster developments, and we buy units in them as well as houses. Tell us the development when you send the address. Dues, association rules and resale paperwork can affect timing, and the association or an attorney can confirm what applies to your unit.

Yes, when you own the land the home sits on. We do not buy mobile homes in a park or on a rented lot. If you are not sure how your property is classified, send the address and we can look at it with you.

With a cash offer, there is no listing period and no wait for a buyer's mortgage approval. We send a written offer within one business day. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time, and you pick the date. A traditional listing depends on showings and a buyer's financing.

It depends on what matters to you. Opendoor and other instant-offer programs buy directly, and their fees, service areas and property requirements vary, so check their current terms. A realtor handles the listing: it goes on the open market and usually charges a commission, often in the range of 5% to 6%. We are another option: we buy as-is, or may assign the contract as disclosed in the agreement, and you choose the closing date. Compare the net from each path before you decide.

A few common ones: skipping a comparison of your options, ignoring dues or liens until late, assuming repairs will pay for themselves, and signing before reading the closing costs. Whether you list or sell for cash, read every term and ask an attorney about anything unclear.

Yes. We buy houses and condos with tenants in place. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what happens to your tenant depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease if you have one.

Yes, we look at damaged properties as they are and make an offer without asking you to repair them first. Talk to your insurance carrier or adjuster about your claim, since that is separate from the sale.

Yes. Send us the address and let us know it is vacant, and whether it is a house or a condo. We make a written offer within one business day, and you can pick a closing date that fits your plans, including from out of the area.

In California, a title or escrow company usually handles the closing: it runs the title search, holds the funds and records the deed. Many sellers do not hire an attorney for a standard sale, but you can, and you should ask one about anything specific to your situation.

We look at the property's condition, the work it needs, and what similar homes sell for nearby. The offer is in writing within one business day of getting your address and details. You can compare it with a listing and take your time deciding.

We make offers on houses in any condition, including ones that need repairs, and you choose the closing date. Eagle works in 43 states and may buy directly or assign the contract, which is disclosed in the agreement. An iBuyer may have different condition and price requirements, so compare the terms.
