Sell Your House Fast in West Columbia, SC. Mill-Village Cottage or Meeting Street Bungalow.

We start from what similar West Columbia houses have sold for recently once repaired, then subtract what your house needs and the costs we have to hold and resell it, plus a margin for the company. The written offer shows the price, the terms and an estimate of what you would net. It costs nothing to ask for one, you are free to say no, and getting other offers to compare is a good idea.

Yes. We buy from the New Brookland mill village and the streets south of Meeting Street to the newer areas off Sunset Boulevard, in 29169, 29170 and anywhere else in the city limits. Where the house sits affects the price we can offer, not whether we will look at it.

In South Carolina, closings are handled under the supervision of a licensed South Carolina attorney. The closing attorney's office searches the title, prepares the deed and closing papers, pays off your loan and anything else owed from the proceeds when the price covers them, and usually sends you the rest once the deed is recorded. You can also hire your own attorney to review the paperwork, which is worth doing for an estate, a foreclosure or a title problem. Most of our closings take 21 to 42 days, on the date you choose.

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 South 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 South 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.

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 South Carolina, 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 South Carolina can explain your legal options and deadlines. Our South Carolina page explains how the foreclosure process generally works in the state.

Yes. We buy houses as they are, and that includes deferred maintenance, older systems and work done without a permit. We price the condition into the written offer instead of asking you to fix it first. If the city has cited the house or a permit is still open, mention it when you call so the offer and the agreement can account for it.

Usually, any dues or assessments still owed on the day of closing are settled from the proceeds, and the closing attorney's office asks the association for an account statement. The covenants stay with the house after it changes hands.

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 South Carolina can confirm which disclosures apply.

Yes, as long as the land is yours too. If you own both the manufactured home and the lot it sits on, in West Columbia or elsewhere in Lexington County, we can make one offer on the two together. A mobile home in a park or on a rented lot is not something we buy.

Yes. Fire, smoke and water damage goes into the price, so you do not need to repair or clear out damaged rooms first. If an insurance claim is open, tell us on the first call.

No. The closing attorney's office can arrange a remote signing with a notary and the witnesses South Carolina requires for a deed, and your proceeds are sent to you, usually by wire, once the deed is recorded.
