What People Say About Working With Us
Eagle Cash Buyers LLC provided professional service. They were easy to work with, and were available with prompt communication throughout the process. I look forward to working with them again.
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.
Kelly and the remainder of the team worked as swiftly as possible to assist me in my property. Would recommend.
Oren and the Eagle Cash Buyers team were extremely efficient throughout the entire sales process. Oren answered my calls day and night unlike other people that I have worked with before. He was very attentive to all my concerns and completely put my mind at ease. I am really looking forward to working with him again and highly recommend Oren plus his team.

Lansing Homeowners We Help
Lansing sellers arrive with very different houses and reasons. Some are dealing with repairs, some with an inherited house or a rental, and some with a move that cannot wait.
A House That Needs Repairs
A roof, a furnace, old windows or a kitchen from another decade can stall a regular listing, because buyers ask for credits or walk after an inspection. We can buy a house in any condition when the numbers work, so you skip the repairs and the cleanout. The offer reflects the condition, and we explain how we got to it.
An Inherited House
A house that came to you from a family member can sit for months while the paperwork is sorted out. We can make an offer while the estate's paperwork is in progress, and work with the estate's attorney and the title or escrow company. We cannot close until someone has legal authority to sign, and an attorney should confirm who that is.

A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to move out. We can buy a house with tenants in it. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what happens to it depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy and we can usually tell you how it affects the offer.

A Move on a Deadline
A job offer, a family change or a closing date on the next house can leave little time for showings. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date, and we can usually tell you early whether your timeline works.
Back Taxes or Money Owed on the House
Unpaid property taxes and many recorded liens can often be paid from the sale proceeds at closing, if there is enough equity. The title search shows what has to be paid or released. Tell us what you know up front so the title or escrow company can look into it early.

A House You No Longer Want to Keep
Carrying a second house, an empty house or a rental that has become a burden costs money every month. A direct sale to Eagle means no showings and no listing period. If the house is in good shape and you have the time and money to prepare it, listing with a good agent may bring a higher price, and we can usually say so.
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 Lansing are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Michigan Transfer 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 $169,400 sale is about $8,500 to $10,200 | 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 |
| Michigan Transfer Taxes | State and county transfer tax of about 0.86% combined; customarily the seller's. 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 Lansing, 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's husband called us first; his wife had sent the inquiry in her name and asked him to start the conversation. Our acquisition manager noticed the difference and asked about it before discussing the property. The call was paused so the owner could join, and a three-way call was scheduled for later that day. At Eagle, the person who owns the property takes part before anything moves forward.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with a licensed title or escrow company that coordinates the paperwork, and you sign in person or remotely, as the title or escrow 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 Lansing, 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 Michigan page sets out what a listing costs.
Pick Your Closing Date and Get Paid
Once you accept, we open title with the title or escrow company, which handles the title search, the loan payoff and the closing paperwork. The Michigan Transfer 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.
Lansing Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Lansing home at $169,400 in August 2026, 2.1% higher than a year earlier.
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole city, not the condition of any one house, and your offer depends on your own house.
As a simple example, an agent commission of 5% to 6% on a $169,400 sale would come to about $8,500 to $10,200 before repairs, closing costs and the time a listing takes. A direct sale to Eagle carries no agent commission for you, but the offer is not the same as a retail price, so you can compare both.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Lansing
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 Lansing
Old Town
Old Town sits in the northern end of Lansing along the Grand River. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 30, 1976, as the North Lansing Historic Commercial District, and its boundary was increased on March 1, 2021. If your property is in or near a historic district, mention it when you send the address so we can ask about any local rules that apply to work on the building.
REO Town
REO Town lies south of downtown along Washington Avenue, across I-496, and is named for Ransom E. Olds, who built factories there. For a seller nearby, a house is valued on its own condition and title, and we send a written offer within one business day, if the numbers work.
Old Everett
Old Everett was once home to the Everett School District and was annexed into the city of Lansing in 1948. Whichever side of Lansing the house is on, we evaluate it the same way: the property, its title and whether the numbers work.
The Stadium District
The Stadium District is a retail and residential complex south of Cooley Law School Stadium, formerly Oldsmobile Park, completed in 2007 with a Michigan State Housing Development Authority grant. If you own a unit there, tell us about any association or building arrangement when you send the address so we can account for it in the offer.

Lansing and Ingham County Seller Questions
Lansing Home Sellers Ask: Repairs, Tenants, Liens, Closing
Repairs, inherited houses, tenants, closing from a distance, liens and mortgage payoffs, answered briefly.
Do you buy houses in every part of Lansing?
We evaluate houses on the east, west, north and south sides of Lansing. Whether we can make an offer depends on the property, its title and whether the numbers work. Send the address and we will check.
Do you buy mobile homes in Lansing?
Yes, when the mobile home is sold together with the land it sits on. Send the address and we will check.
How quickly can I get an offer for my Lansing house?
We send a written cash offer within one business day. Some houses need more research, photos or a walkthrough before the offer is final. There is no obligation to accept it.
How fast can I close on a Lansing house?
Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. The timeline depends on title, payoffs and the title or escrow company.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Lansing 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 Lansing: state and county transfer tax of about 0.86% combined; customarily the seller's, subject to the purchase agreement.
Who handles the closing in Michigan?
A licensed title or escrow company handles it. It runs the title search, holds the funds, arranges the payoffs and has you sign. You can sign in person or remotely, as the title or escrow company arranges.
Can I sell my Lansing 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 Lansing?
It depends on how title was held and Michigan 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 Michigan 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 Lansing 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. Michigan sellers commonly complete a Seller Disclosure Statement, which may apply to your sale. A real estate attorney licensed in Michigan 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.
I own a rental in Lansing. Can you buy it with a tenant still living there?
Yes, we can buy a house with tenants in place. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what happens to it depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy and we can usually tell you how it affects the offer.
Do I need to clean out the house before you buy it?
No. You can leave what you do not want to take, and we buy the house as it stands. If the condition affects the number, the offer will say so.
Can I stay in the house for a few days after closing?
In some cases Eagle can agree to a short stay after closing, usually 7 to 14 days. Part of the seller's proceeds is held in escrow by the title company or attorney and released when the seller moves out. Eagle does not offer rent-backs or longer stays.
Who needs to be on the call when you present the offer?
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.
Can selling my Lansing 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 Michigan, a foreclosure generally proceeds by notice and sale (foreclosure by advertisement) rather than through a court case. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the sale process, 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 Michigan 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 Michigan 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.
