What People Say About Working With Us
My husband and I called Eagle Cash Buyers because our house was on the market for almost a year with no bites. We had moved out of our home and to a different state. We called them, it was very simple. We gave them the information on our home and they made an offer that we could not refuse. They took all my calls and questions, and I had a lot. They answered every call the first time I called. They were knowledgeable and helpful and it was such a pleasure and a blessing that we had a great experience. All the other cash home buyers we had called, one low balled us and they were not straight forward. Also our home was very nice, it had a brand new roof and water heater and heater and the attic was freshly insulated. So your home does not need to be trash for you to sell to them.
Quick and efficient! I highly recommend!
Very accommodating. Made the process easy and not stressful.
I received the utmost help from Ms. Kelly with my home. She really went out of her way to help me. I can say she is truly an angel. There are still honest and trustworthy people on this earth.

Lacey Homeowners We Help
No two Lacey sales start from the same place. One owner has an older house that has not had its wiring touched in decades. Another is a landlord with a tenant partway through a lease, or an heir living out of state, or a homeowner leaving town on short notice. Each is handled a little differently; our Washington page covers the state rules behind selling for cash in Washington.
An Older House That Needs Work
Lacey has houses from many decades, from early lake cottages in the southeast to postwar homes near the old town center. An older house, wherever it sits, can have outdated wiring, aging plumbing or a foundation that has settled, and a buyer's inspector will check all three. We look at the house first and price the work into the offer, so you do not need to repair anything before you sell.
Moving on Short Notice
Lacey grew quickly after 1945, in large part because of service members stationed at Fort Lewis and McChord Field, now Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and it has long been a commuter city for Olympia and the base. If orders or a new job take you away before the house sells, you do not have to come back to close. A mailed signing package or a mobile notary can usually handle the paperwork, arranged through the escrow officer, and the proceeds are wired to you once the deed records.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
If you own a rental in Lacey, you do not have to wait for the lease to end or ask anyone to move out. We buy occupied houses. In most cases the lease and your tenants' rights carry over to the buyer at closing, which is us or, where the agreement allows it, the party we assign the contract to. An attorney can confirm how that applies to your lease.

Fire, Smoke or Water Damage
A kitchen fire, a burst pipe or a roof that let a wet South Sound winter through can leave a house that many lenders will not finance until it is repaired. We buy houses in that condition and price the repairs into the offer. If an insurance claim is open, tell us early, and check with your own carrier or adjuster about how your policy treats a sale.
Related guide: How to Sell a House As Is
Inherited a House in Thurston County
Whether an inherited house needs probate before it can be sold depends on how title was held. When the owner held it alone, someone usually needs legal authority from an estate procedure before a deed can be signed, while a house in a living trust or with survivorship rights may not. We buy inherited houses as they stand, furniture included, and a Washington probate attorney can tell you which route fits.

Behind on the Mortgage
Most Washington foreclosures run through a trustee's sale under the deed of trust rather than a court, and the notices you receive carry the dates that matter. A HUD-approved housing counselor or a Washington attorney can explain your options. A sale that closes before the trustee's sale may pay off the loan if the price covers the balance, and we cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure. Call early and keep every notice.
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 Lacey are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Washington Real Estate Excise 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 $509,700 sale is about $25,500 to $30,600 | 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 |
| Washington Real Estate Excise Tax | Graduated state rate starting at 1.1%, plus a local rate. 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 Lacey, 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
Someone selling a family house was calling around to compare fast cash offers, so our acquisition manager showed how ours is built instead of only naming a number. He started from what the house could sell for on the market, subtracted the repair work, subtracted what a buyer spends to resell it, and then subtracted a margin so the company can stay in business. Those four parts are why a cash offer usually lands below an online estimate. The caller pushed back on the result and planned to have a real estate agent check the math, which is a fair thing to do with any offer.
We are not saying this was a Washington homeowner. We do not attach a case to a state it did not come from, 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 Washington 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 Lacey, 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 Washington 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 Washington Real Estate Excise 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.
Lacey Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Lacey home at $509,700 in August 2026, 0.2% above the year before. That is essentially flat. A citywide number describes the middle of the market and tells you little about one particular house, least of all one that needs work.
When prices hold steady, buyers see no reason to rush, and they lean harder on condition once the inspection report comes back. A Lacey house with a tired roof, dated wiring or water damage can go through several rounds of repair requests before it sells, or sit while the price is trimmed.
Financing can add another hurdle. A buyer using an FHA or VA loan brings an appraiser who measures the house against that program's minimum property standards, and a failing roof or a broken stair rail can hold up the loan until the seller fixes it. Our offer does not depend on a buyer's mortgage, so there is no lender appraisal to pass. You see the price, the terms and the closing date in writing before you sign.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Lacey
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.
Where We Buy Houses in Lacey and Thurston County
We buy across Lacey and throughout Thurston County, from the Woodland District around City Hall to the lake communities in the southeast and the Hawks Prairie planned community. If your house is in 98503 or any other Lacey ZIP code, we cover it.
Neighborhoods and areas in Lacey
Hawks Prairie
One of the three early settlements that make up Lacey, alongside Woodland and Chambers Prairie, Hawks Prairie includes the Hawks Prairie Planned Community, a master plan of about 720 acres that Thurston County first approved in 1987. The city says the plan set aside about 144 acres of open space and includes a 152-acre golf course. Because the plan was first approved in 1987, houses built under it generally date from the late 1980s onward. Whatever its age, the offer rests on your own house's condition and recent nearby sales, and you fix nothing first.
Woodland District
Lacey was first called Woodland, and the Woodland District is now the civic and shopping center of the city: a study area of roughly 200 acres bounded by Interstate 5, College Street SE, the Woodland Trail and the Chehalis Western Trail, with City Hall, Huntamer Park and South Sound Center inside it. The city's 2013 strategic plan for the district studied adding housing among its shops and offices. The district is largely shops, offices and civic buildings, so if your house is near it rather than in it, we make the offer on the house itself.
Long Lake and Hicks Lake
In southeastern Lacey, these lakes were part of a summer-resort area by the late 1920s, and the city's historic register notes that the Tudor style was popular in the 1930s, when the lakes were a thriving resort destination. Long Lake Park, a city park of about 10 acres on Carpenter Road SE, has 285 feet of beach frontage. A house near the water can be anything from a decades-old cottage to a recent rebuild, and what it needs is judged house by house, so we look at yours before we make the offer.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including cityoflacey.org, laceyparks.org, en.wikipedia.org and historylink.org. Conditions vary from house to house.

Washington and Thurston County Seller Questions
Lacey Sellers: Questions to Settle Before You Sign
Disclosure on an as-is sale, escrow, back taxes, inherited houses, moving away and manufactured homes, answered briefly.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Lacey 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 Washington can confirm which disclosures apply.
Who runs the closing in Washington, and do I need an attorney?
In Washington an escrow or title company normally runs it. The escrow officer holds the funds, orders the title search, pays off your loan and other amounts owed from the proceeds when the price covers them, records the deed in Thurston County and sends you the balance. Many sellers close without a lawyer, and you are free to hire one, which is worth doing for an estate, a foreclosure or a title problem. Most of our closings take 21 to 42 days, on a date you pick.
Can selling my Lacey 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 Washington, 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 Washington can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Washington page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
How do you decide what to offer on a Lacey house?
We start from what the house could sell for on the market once it is in good shape, using recent sales of similar homes near yours. From that we subtract the cost of the repairs it needs, the costs of reselling it and a margin that keeps our business running. The written offer shows the price, the terms and your estimated net, and it is free. You can say no, and comparing it with other offers is sensible.
Do you buy in Hawks Prairie, the Woodland District and around the lakes?
Yes. We make offers across Lacey, from the Woodland District and the lake areas in the southeast to the Hawks Prairie planned community, in 98503 and every other Lacey ZIP code. We also buy in nearby Olympia, Tumwater and Yelm. Where the house sits affects the price, not whether we make an offer.
Can I sell my Lacey 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 Lacey?
It depends on how title was held and Washington 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 Washington 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 you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Lacey?
Yes, when the land comes with it. If you own both the manufactured home and the lot it sits on, in Lacey or elsewhere in Thurston County, we can make an offer on the two together. A mobile home in a park or on a rented lot is not something we buy.
I am leaving the area. Do I have to be in Lacey to close?
No. The escrow officer can mail your documents or send a mobile notary to wherever you are, and the money is wired to your account after the deed records. If a move or new orders are setting your timeline, tell us the date you need and we will plan around it where we can.
Can you buy a Lacey house that has a tenant in it?
Yes. You do not need to wait for the lease to end or ask the tenant to leave. Tell us the rent, the lease end date and any deposit you hold, and the written offer takes them into account. In most cases the lease and your tenant's rights carry over to the buyer at closing, and an attorney can tell you how that applies to your lease.
My Lacey house has fire or water damage. Will you still make an offer?
Yes. We price fire, smoke and water damage into the offer, so you do not need to repair or clear out damaged rooms first. If an insurance claim is open, mention it on the first call.
How is selling to you different from selling to an iBuyer?
iBuyers tend to concentrate on newer houses in good condition and deduct repair costs after their own inspection. We also buy older and damaged houses, and the written offer shows what we will pay before you sign. The comparison table on this page lines both up next to a traditional listing.
Who is Eagle Cash Buyers?
Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC buys houses for cash in 43 states, Washington among them. We are BBB accredited and hold 4.5 stars from 40 Google reviews, not all of them five stars. Oren Sofrin, our founder and CEO, reviews these pages.
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.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Lacey 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 Lacey: graduated state rate starting at 1.1%, plus a local rate, subject to the purchase agreement.
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.
