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.
Wonderful to work with and stayed in contact at all stages through the process. Thank you again for everything.
Eagle Cash Buyers helped me to stop a foreclosure. My home was 2 days away from an auction. For a company who invests in buying homes for profit they helped my family keep mine. So grateful.
It was a pleasure working with Eagle Cash Buyers, they helped with a complicated journey for the sale of my mother's estate. Thank you Kelly.

Marietta Homeowners We Help
Marietta's sellers do not all arrive with the same story. One owns a nineteenth-century house that has gone years without updates. Another is settling a relative's estate, or has tenants and no wish to be a landlord anymore. If you are weighing selling for cash in Ohio, this is how we handle the usual situations.
A Historic House That Needs Updating
Marietta's historic districts hold many houses from the 1800s. A house from that period can need new wiring, plumbing or a roof, and a buyer relying on a mortgage may not be able to close until the lender is satisfied with the repairs. We buy the house as it stands and work the cost of those repairs into the written offer. You do not fix anything first.
Inherited a House in Washington County
If the owner held title alone, the county probate court may need to appoint someone with authority to sign before a sale can close. A house held in a trust may not need that step. We buy inherited houses as they stand, belongings included, and we can wait while the paperwork is sorted out. A probate attorney can tell you which route applies to your family.

Behind on the Mortgage
Ohio foreclosures go through the courts, so there are notices and court dates before a lender can sell the house. You can generally still sell it yourself first. An attorney or HUD-approved housing counselor can explain where you stand and what the dates mean. If the price covers what you owe, a sale that closes ahead of the foreclosure pays the loan from the proceeds; if it does not, the lender has to agree to accept less. Call early. The sooner we see the notices, the more room there is to fit a closing date in front of them.
A Rental You Are Finished With
You do not have to wait for a lease to run out or ask a tenant to leave. We buy occupied houses, and a lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, whether that is us or the partner named in the agreement. An Ohio landlord-tenant attorney can confirm how your particular lease is affected. If the house is empty between tenants, we buy it that way as well.

A House Full of Belongings
Clearing out a parent's house or one you have lived in for decades can take months. You do not need to finish first. Take what matters to you and, as agreed in the purchase agreement, leave the rest; we can take the house with the furniture still in it. That saves the dumpster, the cleaning crew and the weekends.
Moved Away From the Ohio Valley
If work or family has taken you out of Marietta, you do not need to drive back to sell. A mobile notary or a mailed signing package usually does the job. We arrange it with the closing agent, and your proceeds are sent to you after closing.

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 Marietta are right to ask about the net rather than the headline offer price. On a typical listing, agent commission, closing costs, the Ohio Conveyance Fee 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 $169,888 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 |
| Ohio Conveyance Fee | In Washington County the conveyance fee is $4 per $1,000 of the sale price plus $0.50 per parcel (auditorwashingtoncountyohio.gov, checked September 2026). 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 Marietta, 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
A homeowner had sent us an inquiry, and her husband called to get the conversation started. Our acquisition manager noticed the inquiry was in her name, asked whether she was able to take part, and learned it was simply her house and she had asked him to reach out first. Our policy is that the person who owns the house joins the conversation before anything moves forward, so they set up a three-way call for when the two of them were together. Our acquisition manager described that first call as a basic one, mostly a chance for us to learn about the property and the condition it is in.
We are not saying this was an Ohio 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 Ohio 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 Marietta, 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 Ohio 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 Ohio Conveyance Fee 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.
Marietta Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Redfin put the median sale price in Marietta at $169,888 for the three months ending August 2026, 16.1% lower than a year earlier. The typical home spent 51 days on the market, against 63 a year before, and 42 homes sold in August. In a city this size the median moves with the mix of houses that happen to sell in a given quarter, and it says little about any one house, least of all one that needs work.
A seller listing an older Marietta house has to plan for the wait. Homes here typically sold after about seven weeks, and that is before the inspection report and the buyer's repair requests. A house with a worn roof or original wiring is the one most likely to be renegotiated.
A buyer using a VA or FHA loan brings an appraiser who checks the house against that program's minimum property standards, and peeling paint or a failing roof can hold up the loan until someone pays for the repair. A cash offer has no buyer's lender and no loan appraisal, so nothing waits on one. The price, the terms and the closing date are in the written agreement before you sign.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Marietta
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 Marietta
Marietta Historic District
The downtown historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 and enlarged in 2001. It now covers more than 900 acres and over 2,000 contributing properties, in Greek Revival, Late Victorian and Federal styles, with buildings that go back to the city's founding in 1788. A house of that age is judged on its own condition, and we work that into the written offer, so you fix nothing before you sell.
Harmar
Harmar sits on the west bank of the Muskingum River, across from downtown and joined to it by the Putnam Street Bridge. Its historic district, listed in 1974 and expanded in 1993 to about 150 acres, has more than 200 contributing properties, mostly Federal, Greek Revival and Gothic Revival, with Colonial Revival and Italianate also common. If you own a house here, we look at that house alone: the offer rests on its condition and recent nearby sales.
Neighborhood details are drawn from public sources, including en.wikipedia.org. Conditions vary from house to house.

Marietta and Washington County Seller Questions
Questions Marietta Owners Put to Us First
Liens and back taxes, disclosure forms, inherited houses, foreclosure notices, city code notices and mobile homes on owned land, answered briefly.
Can I sell my Marietta 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 still have to make disclosures if I sell my Marietta 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. Ohio sellers commonly complete a Residential Property Disclosure Form, which may apply to your sale. A real estate attorney licensed in Ohio can confirm which disclosures apply.
Do I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Marietta?
It depends on how title was held and Ohio 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 Ohio 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.
Can selling my Marietta 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 Ohio, 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 Ohio can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our Ohio page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.
Do you buy houses in Harmar and the downtown historic district?
Yes, when we can make an offer on the house. We look at older houses in both areas, and the offer is built on the house's own condition and the recent sales of similar homes nearby. Send us the address. If we can make an offer, it comes to you in writing within one business day.
Which parts of Marietta do you buy in?
We look at houses across Marietta, from downtown and Harmar to the outer streets and the county beyond, in 45750 and elsewhere in Washington County. Where the house sits affects the price, not whether we will look at it.
Who handles the closing in Ohio, and do I need a lawyer?
A licensed Ohio closing agent, usually a title company, handles it. The agent runs the title search, collects the money, pays off your loan and any liens from the proceeds when the price covers them, and sends you the balance after the deed is recorded. Many routine sales close without either side hiring an attorney, and you are free to hire one. Probate, foreclosure and title disputes are the situations where one is most worth having. You choose the closing date, and most of ours fall between 21 and 42 days.
How do you work out a cash offer on a Marietta house?
We start from what the house would sell for once repaired, based on recent sales of similar homes nearby, then take off the cost of the work it needs and our costs to hold and resell it. The written offer shows the price, the terms and your estimated net. It costs nothing, and you are under no obligation to take it.
Can you make an offer on a Marietta house with an open city code notice?
Often we can. Send us a copy of the notice if you have one and tell us what has been done about it. We price the work needed into the offer, and the closing agent's title search shows what has to be paid or cleared before the deed transfers. Whether a particular notice must be resolved before or at closing depends on what it says, so ask the closing agent or an Ohio real estate attorney about yours.
How does a cash offer compare to listing with a Marietta agent?
A listing can bring a higher sale price for a house in good shape, but you pay an agent's commission and usually your closing costs, and you wait for a buyer's financing, inspection and appraisal. Our offer is usually lower than a full retail sale of the same house after repairs. In return you get it in writing within one business day, you repair nothing, and on a direct sale to us you pay no agent commission. The comparison table on this page sets the options side by side.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Marietta?
Yes, when the land comes with it. If you own both the manufactured home and the lot it sits on, in Marietta or elsewhere in Washington 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.
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 is Eagle Cash Buyers?
Eagle Cash Buyers, LLC buys houses for cash in 43 states, Ohio among them. We are BBB accredited and hold 4.5 stars from 40 Google reviews, not all of them five stars. Our founder, Oren Sofrin, reviewed this page.
How much money will I actually walk away with?
The offer price, less your loan payoff, any liens or back taxes, and your share of prorated property taxes and of the county conveyance fee (Ohio's version of a transfer tax). On a direct sale to us you pay no agent commission, and we pay the closing costs apart from those items. The closing agent sends a settlement statement showing every line before you sign.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Marietta 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 Marietta: In Washington County the conveyance fee is $4 per $1,000 of the sale price plus $0.50 per parcel (auditorwashingtoncountyohio.gov, checked September 2026), 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.
