Sell Your House Fast in Olympia, WA. Capitol-Area Bungalow or Rental.

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 Olympia: graduated state rate starting at 1.1%, plus a local rate, subject to the purchase agreement.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 home loan secured by a deed of trust is generally foreclosed by a trustee's sale 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 the court, 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 Washington 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 Washington page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.

Yes, when you own the land the home sits on. We do not buy a mobile home in a park or on a rented lot. If your home is on your own land in or around Olympia, send us the address and we will look at it.

Selling to cash buyers is usually faster than listing, because there are no showings and no buyer financing to line up. We send a written offer within one business day, and most sales close in 21 to 42 days, or later if you need more time. How long it takes also depends on the title search and, if there is a mortgage, your lender's payoff. You also skip repairs, because we buy as-is.

Do not put money into renovating before you know what the sale will return. A repair or remodel can cost more than it adds, and it delays the sale. If you sell to us as-is, you can skip it and still get a written offer within one business day.

That depends on your situation more than on the calendar. Mortgage rates affect what buyers can pay, and a traditional listing can take time. If you need a firm timeline, a cash offer lets you know the terms up front, and you choose the closing date.

A title or escrow company typically handles the closing. It runs the title search, holds the funds and prepares the settlement statement. You are free to hire your own attorney, and a Washington real estate attorney can answer legal questions about your sale.

Yes. We buy rentals with tenants in place. A lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, and what that means depends on the lease terms. Send us a copy of the lease and the rent details when you request an offer.

Often, yes. Many sellers handle a sale from another city or state. A title or escrow company can usually work with you by mail, e-signature or a mobile notary, depending on the documents involved. Tell us up front where you are, so the closing professional can plan for it.

Yes. We make offers across the Olympia area, including Tumwater and Lacey. As everywhere, we buy mobile homes only when the seller owns the land. Not every house qualifies, so send the address and we will tell you.
