What People Say About Working With Us
Wonderful to work with and stayed in contact at all stages through the process. Thank you again for everything.
We sold our home to Eagle Cash Buyers. We needed to sell to an investor because we could not afford the cost of repairs. Eagle Cash Buyers stuck to the agreed on price even after finding more damage with the house than originally discussed. Oren communicated with us every step of the way. Thanks to Eagle Cash Buyers for buying our house and helping us move on with our life.
Kelly and the remainder of the team worked as swiftly as possible to assist me in my property. Would recommend.
Alex was great at explaining things that I wasn't sure meant. And got me what I was asking for on my property.

Lumberton Homeowners We Help
Lumberton sellers arrive with very different houses and reasons. Some own a house that water or wind has damaged, others hold a rental, inherited a relative's home or live somewhere else now. Each sale runs a little differently, and the cards below explain how. See also selling for cash in North Carolina.
A House Damaged by Storm or Flood Water
Wikipedia's article on Lumberton reports record flooding in the city from Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and again from Hurricane Florence in 2018. Water damage can leave a house that many lenders will not finance until it is repaired, and that stalls a traditional listing. We look at the house as it stands and, if the numbers work, build the repairs into a written offer. If an insurance claim is open, tell us early so it can be handled in the agreement.

A Dated House That Needs Work
Old roofs, wiring, plumbing and heating systems are common reasons a listing stalls once a buyer's inspector has been through. You do not have to fix any of it first. We evaluate the house as it is, and if the numbers work the offer reflects the work it needs.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not need to wait for a lease to end or ask anyone to move out. If the numbers work, we can make an offer on a house with tenants in it, and the lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, which depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease and tell us early about any security deposit you hold.

Inherited a House in Robeson County
Whether a court process is needed before an inherited house can be sold depends on how it was titled and what the estate papers say, and a North Carolina estate attorney can tell you which applies. At Eagle, our policy is to have everyone whose signature or authorization is required, such as the heirs or the estate's personal representative, on the call when we present the offer, so they can decide together whether to move forward. We can look at the house furniture and all, so nobody has to clear the rooms first.

Behind on the Mortgage
Missed payments can lead to a foreclosure notice sooner than many owners expect. A HUD-approved housing counselor or an attorney can explain your options. A sale may help when it closes in time and the price covers what is owed. Call early, because the sooner we see your notices, the more room there is to plan a closing date around them.
Already Living Somewhere Else
If a job or a family move has taken you away from Lumberton, you do not have to keep the house or come back to sell it. A mobile notary or a mailed signing package can often handle the paperwork, and the closing provider sends your proceeds once the sale closes. We can set the closing date around your move.
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 Lumberton are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the North Carolina 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 $152,200 sale is about $7,600 to $9,100 | 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 |
| North Carolina Excise Tax | Charged when the deed is recorded; 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 Lumberton, 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 was the administrator of an estate where the local court was the executor of record, an arrangement many people have never come across. In a case like that, the court may need to be told the closing date in advance so the sale can be recorded, and the estate's attorney may need the buyer's signature on the contract first. Our acquisition manager explained that we coordinate with the estate's attorney on that timeline. Procedures vary by jurisdiction, so confirm the details with the estate's attorney or the court.
Three Steps, From First Call to Closing
Sellers ask whether a cash sale is complicated. Usually it is not: we work with North Carolina 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 Lumberton, 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 North Carolina 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 North Carolina 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.
Lumberton Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Lumberton home at $152,200 in August 2026, 2.4% higher than a year earlier. A citywide figure shows where prices sit on average and says nothing about one particular house, least of all one that needs work.
A typical-value figure reflects mid-priced homes across the whole city, not the condition of any one house. Buyers compare a house with water damage, an old roof or dated wiring against that figure, and a retail buyer will usually expect repairs or a lower price to cover the difference.
Selling through an agent also has a cost. Agent commission is usually between 5% and 6% of the sale price; it is negotiable and depends on the agent. As an illustration only, using the typical value above, that range works out to roughly $7,600 to $9,100 on a $152,200 house. We do not charge you an agent commission when you sell directly to us.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Lumberton
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.

Lumberton and Robeson County Seller Questions
Questions Robeson County Homeowners Ask Before Selling
Storm damage, as-is disclosure, inherited houses, tenants, liens and closing, answered briefly.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Lumberton 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 North Carolina can confirm which disclosures apply.
Can you buy my flood-damaged house in Lumberton?
We can buy a house in any condition when the numbers work, and water damage does not rule it out. Tell us what happened, whether an insurance claim is open and what has already been repaired. The written offer reflects the condition, and nothing is binding until you and Eagle sign a purchase agreement.
Is selling your house for cash a good idea?
It can be when speed, convenience and selling as-is matter more than the highest possible price. A cash offer is usually lower than a repaired house could reach on the open market, but you skip the repairs, the showings and the wait for a buyer's mortgage approval. A traditional listing may suit a market-ready house better, and we can usually say so. Read the written agreement before you sign.
Who handles the closing, and do I need an attorney?
The closing is handled by a North Carolina attorney or title company. That provider runs the title search, arranges the payoffs and records the deed. An attorney licensed in North Carolina can tell you what your own sale needs. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and you choose the date.
Can selling my Lumberton 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 North Carolina, a foreclosure generally proceeds by a sale under the deed of trust after a hearing before the clerk of court. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the clerk of court and the trustee, 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 North Carolina 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 attorney or title company close fast. Our North Carolina page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
How do you work out a cash offer on a Lumberton house?
We begin with what we think the house would sell for once repaired, judged from recent sales of similar homes nearby. From that we subtract the cost of the work it needs, what it costs us to hold and resell it, and a margin for the company, which is why a cash offer sits below full retail. The written offer is free to review and you are under no obligation to accept it.
Do you buy in every part of Lumberton?
We evaluate houses across Lumberton and Robeson County. Where the house sits can affect the price we can pay, and whether we make an offer depends on the property, its location and whether the numbers work.
Can I sell my Lumberton 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 Lumberton?
It depends on how title was held and North Carolina 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 North Carolina 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.
How much money will I actually get from selling my house?
It is the sale price less what you still owe. Your mortgage payoff, any liens or back taxes and prorated property taxes come out of the proceeds, and the settlement statement lists every charge before you sign. With a cash offer you avoid agent commission and repair costs, which can narrow the gap with a listing's higher price. Ask for the estimated net proceeds on any offer you compare.
Do I have to be in Lumberton to close?
Often not. The closing provider can usually mail your documents for signing before a notary, or arrange a mobile notary, and your proceeds are sent once the sale closes.
Can you buy a Lumberton house that still has tenants in it?
Yes, if the numbers work. You do not need to hand it over empty or end a lease early. Send us the lease and the rent details when you can, and tell us early about any security deposit you hold.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Lumberton?
Yes, when the mobile home is sold together with the land it sits on. If you own both the home and the land, we can look at the two together and make an offer if the numbers work.
How is selling to you different from selling to an iBuyer?
iBuyers tend to focus on newer houses in good condition and often adjust the price after their own inspection. We also look at older and dated houses, and the written offer shows the price and any condition that could change it before you sign.
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 attorney or title company used for the transaction.

Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC is a real estate investment company registered in Ohio. Homeowners in 43 states, North Carolina among them, can request a written cash offer from us. We are rated A+ by the BBB. Check us out however you like, and take the time you need before signing anything.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Lumberton 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 Lumberton: charged when the deed is recorded; customarily the seller's, subject to the purchase agreement.
