What People Say About Working With Us
Experienced and trustworthy! It has been great to work with Oren from Eagle Cash Buyers.
Wonderful to work with and stayed in contact at all stages through the process. Thank you again for everything.
Alex Anthony was incredible, responsive, no hidden scams and straightforward. Didn't make any promises until REAL numbers were established, which is extremely respectable. Not only was he efficient, he was fast too. He understood our situation with great empathy and was very personable and patient. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, Alex will be my first call.
I had a great experience and they are wonderful to work with. Very understanding with my goals.

Highland Homeowners We Help
Highland sellers come with very different houses and reasons. Some own a long-held home in the older part of town, some manage a rental, and some are dealing with a house they no longer want to keep up.
An Older House That Needs Work
Highland's original townsite was platted in 1891, so houses in the older part of town can be many decades old. Repairs and updates can be costly before a listing. We buy houses as they are, and you can tell us what you know about the roof, plumbing, wiring or foundation when you send the address.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not have to wait for a lease to end or ask a tenant to move out before you sell. We can buy a house with tenants living in it. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy if you have one.

An Inherited House
Inheriting a house in Highland while living somewhere else can leave you with taxes, upkeep and a decision you did not plan for. We can walk through what we need from you and make an offer on the house as it stands, so you are not clearing it out first. Whether probate is needed depends on how title was held.

A Vacant House
A house that sits empty still costs money in taxes, insurance, utilities and upkeep. If you moved, inherited it or never rented it out, tell us it is vacant when you send the address. We can make an offer without showings or open houses.

Fire, Water or Storm Damage
A damaged house can be hard to list because many buyers need financing that requires a livable property. We buy houses with damage, and we make our offer based on the condition you describe and what we find when we confirm it. You can compare that with a repair or demolition quote before you decide.
Related guide: How to Sell a House As Is
Moving on a Deadline
A new job, a family change or a move across the state can set a date for you. You choose the closing date that works, and most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. In most cases you can sign remotely, as the closing agent arranges.
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 Highland 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 $539,200 sale is about $27,000 to $32,400 | 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 | County tax of $0.55 per $500 of value (about $1.10 per $1,000); some charter cities add their own. 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 Highland, 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 homeowner who contacted us had a house that burned, and the insurer had called it a total loss. The couple already had a demolition bid and wanted to compare it side by side with a cash offer before choosing. Our acquisition manager explained that the first figure would be a range, not a firm number, and that a representative would confirm the condition. When they said they wanted to weigh the demolition route first, he told them they were welcome to call back if they wanted to move forward.
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 Highland, 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.
Highland Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Highland home at $539,200 in August 2026, 1.6% higher than a year earlier.
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole city, not the condition of any one house. A home that needs a new roof or has storm or fire damage can sit well apart from that number, and what a buyer will pay for it depends on the repairs involved.
A traditional sale usually means agent commission, repairs a buyer's lender may require, and weeks on the market. A cash sale trades some of that price for certainty and speed. Our written offer shows you what the house is worth to us today, and you can compare it with a listing before deciding.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Highland
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 Highland
Highland Historic District
The Highland Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 5, 2001, and covers 29 acres. Wikipedia describes it as including the original townsite platted in 1891 and development continuing through 1938. For a seller, a house here may be several decades older than houses elsewhere in the city, so the age of the roof, wiring and plumbing is worth mentioning when you contact us.
East Highlands Ranch
The City of Highland describes East Highlands Ranch as a master-planned community with private recreation. If your home is in a planned community with an HOA, the HOA's rules and dues can affect a sale, so have the HOA name and current dues ready when you send the address.
Mentone
Just outside Highland, Mentone is a census-designated place in San Bernardino County, with its own ZIP code, 92359. Wikipedia notes it is not incorporated and remains under county jurisdiction, so county rather than city rules can apply to a property there. We buy houses in Mentone as well, and you can send the address to see whether it fits.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including en.wikipedia.org and highlandca.gov. Conditions vary from house to house.
Main ZIP code: 92346

Highland and San Bernardino County Seller Questions
Highland Sellers Ask: Repairs, Renters, Debts and Costs
What a cash sale means for repairs, renters, empty houses, debts and costs, in short answers.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Highland 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 Highland: 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.
Can I sell my Highland 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 Highland?
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.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Highland 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.
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 Highland 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.
How much money will I actually get from selling my house in Highland?
It depends on the cash offer and what you owe. We write the offer, and from it your mortgage payoff and any back taxes or other debts come out. Eagle pays the closing costs on a sale to us, apart from your share of any transfer tax, so fewer costs come out of what is left. Ask for the numbers in writing so you can compare them with a listing.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Highland?
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 are not sure how title is held, send the address and we will tell you what we need to see.
Do you buy houses in Mentone and other communities near Highland?
We buy throughout San Bernardino County, including Mentone, Redlands and Loma Linda. One exception: we buy a mobile or manufactured home only when the seller owns the land it sits on. Send the address and we will tell you quickly.
Can I sell a Highland house that has fire damage?
Yes, you can ask us for an offer on a house with fire damage. We make the offer based on the condition you describe and what we find when we confirm it. It can help to have photos and any repair or demolition quote on hand, and you are free to compare our offer with them before you decide. Your insurance carrier or adjuster can answer questions about your policy.
Do I have to clean out the house before you buy it?
No. You can leave furniture and belongings you do not want and take what you do. Tell us what is staying when you send the address so the offer reflects it.
How fast can you close on a Highland house?
We write an offer within one business day of getting your address. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You choose the closing date, within that range or later, once the title work allows.
Can I sell a Highland house with tenants living in it?
Yes. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms. Send a copy of the lease and the rent amount, and we will go over what applies.
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.
