What People Say About Working With Us
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.
Eagle Cash Buyers did a great job, and responded quickly. Thank you.
Very accommodating. Made the process easy and not stressful.
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.

Lanham Homeowners We Help
Lanham sellers arrive with very different houses and reasons. Some own an older home near Elm Street, some a 1950s house near Seabrook, and some are handling a property from a distance.
An Older House That Needs Work
Lanham has houses built across a long stretch of the 1900s. If yours has an old roof, dated wiring or plumbing, or deferred repairs, you can sell it as it is. We make an offer based on the house in its current condition, and you do not need to repair or clean anything first.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to move out. We buy houses with tenants in them. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, though what happens next depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy and we will go through it with you.

An Inherited House
A family house can be hard to keep up from a distance, and several heirs may not agree on a plan. We can talk through the situation with everyone involved and work around any probate or estate timing. A Maryland attorney can confirm what is needed on the estate side.

Payments Falling Behind
If you are behind on the mortgage and worried about what comes next, a quick call costs nothing. We can tell you what we would offer and how fast a sale could happen, so you can compare it with your other choices. Your state page has the Maryland detail.
A Move With a Deadline
A job change, a new home or a relocation can leave a house you cannot carry for long. You choose the closing date. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can go later if you need more time to move.
A Home You Would Rather Not List
Listing usually means showings, often open houses, and repairs before a buyer's inspection. Selling to us skips the public showings and the repair work. You get a written offer, you decide, and the sale is on the schedule you set.
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 Lanham are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Maryland Transfer and Recordation Taxes 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 |
| Maryland Transfer and Recordation Taxes | State transfer tax of 0.5% plus county transfer and recordation taxes; the contract sets the split. 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 Lanham, 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 homeowner's inquiry came in under her name, but her husband made the first call. Our acquisition manager asked whether she could take part, because we talk with the owner before anything moves forward, and a three-way call was set up for when he got home. Our acquisition manager described that first call as basic: mostly a chance to learn about the property, its condition and the situation, with no offer on the spot.
We are not saying this was a Maryland 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 Maryland attorneys and title companies who coordinate the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the closing attorney or title company 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 Lanham, 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 Maryland page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title with the closing attorney or title company, who handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. The Maryland Transfer and Recordation Taxes 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 Lanham
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.

We buy across Lanham and throughout Prince George's County, from both sides of the Beltway to the areas around Seabrook and New Carrollton. Mobile homes qualify only when the seller owns the land.
Neighborhoods and areas in Lanham
Seabrook
Seabrook is the community right next to Lanham, and the two share a boundary and a history as parts of the former Lanham-Seabrook census area. Much of its housing dates to the 1950s, and it has a MARC commuter rail station. If your house is in this area, the commuting access and the age of the housing are things buyers weigh, and we make the offer on the house as it stands.
Lincoln
The Lincoln neighborhood is where Elm Street runs near Crescent Avenue. The Thomas J. Calloway House there, built in 1910 as a two-and-a-half-story Foursquare, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 2005. Houses in a neighborhood with a long history can vary a lot in age and layout, so we price each one on its own condition.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including en.wikipedia.org. Conditions vary from house to house.

Lanham and Prince George's County Seller Questions
Cash Sale Questions From Homeowners Near Seabrook and Greenbelt
Closing costs, liens, probate, tenants and what happens on the first call, answered briefly.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Lanham 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 Lanham: state transfer tax of 0.5% plus county transfer and recordation taxes; the contract sets the split.
What happens on the first call?
The first call is mainly about the property: its details, its condition and your situation. The call is for gathering details, not for signing anything. The offer follows in writing within one business day, and we talk with the owner of the house before anything moves forward.
What can I do to get my house in Lanham to sell faster?
On the market, repairs, cleaning and staging take time and money before a listing even starts. A cash offer skips those steps, since we buy the house as it is and you pick the closing date. If you do list with an agent, price and condition drive how quickly it sells.
Do I have to make repairs before you buy?
No. We buy houses in their current condition, whether that is a dated kitchen, an old roof or deferred maintenance. Our offer is based on the house as it is, so there is nothing to fix before you send the address.
Do you buy houses in Seabrook, New Carrollton and the rest of Prince George's County?
Yes, we buy across Lanham and the nearby communities, including Seabrook, New Carrollton, Greenbelt and Glenn Dale. The exception is a mobile home, which we buy only when the seller owns the land. We do not buy in a park or on a rented lot.
Do you buy mobile homes in Lanham?
Yes, when you own the land under the home. We do not buy a mobile home that sits in a park or on a rented lot. If you are not sure how your property is set up, send us the address and we will tell you.
Can I sell a house with tenants living in it?
Yes. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means in practice depends on the lease terms. Send us the lease and the rent details, and we will explain what we would do.
How fast can you close?
Most of our sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can close later if you need more time. You choose the date that fits your move. We send a written offer within one business day of getting the address.
Can I sell my Lanham 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 Lanham?
It depends on how title was held and Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Lanham 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 Maryland 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 Lanham 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 Maryland, 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 tell you whether our expected timeline appears workable. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney licensed in Maryland can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Maryland page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
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.
