What People Say About Working With Us
Kelly and the remainder of the team worked as swiftly as possible to assist me in my property. Would recommend.
After talking with several other cash buyers and real estate agents I talked with Alex and he really worked with me and got me the best deal. Down to earth and straight with facts.
Fast, professional, kind and understanding. Thank you for making this easy.
Eagle Cash Buyers were the best company that I have worked with. The process took about 6 weeks and was closed. Everything was upfront and I was told what was being done every step of the way. This company is highly recommended.

Zanesville Homeowners We Help
Zanesville sellers come with very different houses and reasons. Some own an older home in a historic district, some are managing a rental, and some live far from a property they would rather not keep. Here are the situations we hear most often.
An Older House That Needs Work
Many older Zanesville houses carry a long list of updates. If fixing a roof, wiring or a kitchen before listing does not appeal to you, we buy the house as it stands. The offer reflects the condition we find, and you do not have to repair anything first.
A Rental With Tenants in Place
You do not have to wait for a lease to end before you sell. We buy houses that have tenants living in them. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, but exactly what happens depends on the lease terms, so we go through your agreement with you when we make the offer.

An Inherited or Out-of-Town House
A house you inherited or now own from a distance can become a burden of taxes, upkeep and travel. We can work from photos, calls and documents, and closing can usually be arranged without you being in Zanesville. If the estate has open legal steps, your attorney or the title company will tell you what is needed.

A House You Want to Sell on Your Schedule
A traditional listing means showings, open houses and waiting on a buyer's financing. A direct cash sale is simpler. Most of our sales close in 21 to 42 days, and if you need more time, for a move, a school year or a job change, tell us the date that works and we will plan around it.
A Vacant or Rarely Used House
An empty house still costs money in utilities, insurance and taxes, and it needs someone to look after it. If you moved for work or a family reason and the house is sitting, we can make an offer without you cleaning it out first. You can talk with us about anything you would like to leave behind.

Money Is Tight and the House Is Part of the Problem
Falling behind on payments or facing a large repair bill is stressful, and a sale is one option to weigh. We give you a written offer and the numbers, and you decide. Whether a sale makes sense depends on what you owe and on the offer, and an attorney or housing counselor can help you compare choices.
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 Zanesville 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 $204,200 sale is about $10,200 to $12,300 | 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 | The Muskingum County Auditor's page says the conveyance fee in Muskingum County is $4.00 per thousand (muskingumcountyauditor.org, 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 Zanesville, 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
One homeowner who contacted us had sent in the inquiry in her own name, and someone else phoned to get the conversation started. Our acquisition manager noticed the difference and asked whether the owner was able to take part before discussing the property. The first call was described as a basic one to learn about the property and its condition, and a follow-up call was scheduled for when the owner could join.
We are not saying this was an Ohio homeowner, 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 Zanesville, 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.
Zanesville Housing Market - What the Numbers Say
Zillow's Home Value Index put the typical Zanesville home at $204,200 in August 2026, 1.5% higher than a year earlier. It is a smoothed, seasonally adjusted figure for mid-tier homes across the whole city.
A typical-value figure describes the middle of the city, not the condition of any one house. A home with an older roof, dated systems or deferred repairs can sell for a different amount than the typical one, and so can a house with a particular location or layout.
We work from the house in front of us. Send the address and what you know about its condition, and our written offer will reflect that house rather than a citywide average.

How to Check Out Any Cash Buyer in Zanesville
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.

Zanesville and Muskingum County Seller Questions
Before You Sell in Zanesville: Questions Owners Send Us
Closing dates, repairs, tenants, mobile homes, liens and probate, in short plain answers.
How fast can I close if I sell my Zanesville house for cash?
We send a written offer within one business day of getting your details. Most sales close in 21 to 42 days, and we can go later if you need more time. You choose the closing date, so a move or a school year can set the schedule.
Who pays closing costs when I sell my Zanesville 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 Zanesville: The Muskingum County Auditor's page says the conveyance fee in Muskingum County is $4.00 per thousand (muskingumcountyauditor.org, checked September 2026), subject to the purchase agreement.
Do I have to repair or clean out the house before you buy it?
No. We buy houses as they are, and our offer reflects the condition we find. If you would rather leave furniture or belongings behind, tell us and we will talk it through before closing.
How do you decide on the offer for my Zanesville house?
We look at the location, the size and the condition of the house, and what similar homes have sold for. Send the address and whatever you know about repairs, and we will make a written offer within one business day. You are free to compare it with other offers or with listing.
Can I sell my Zanesville 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.
Can selling my Zanesville 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 I have to go through probate before I can sell an inherited house in Zanesville?
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.
Do I still have to make disclosures if I sell my Zanesville 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.
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.
Do you buy mobile or manufactured homes in Zanesville?
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 you own both the home and the land in or around Zanesville, send the address and we will look at it.
Can I sell a house that has tenants in it?
Yes. You do not need to wait for a lease to end. The lease generally passes to the buyer at closing, but what happens depends on the lease terms, so send us a copy and we will go through it with you.
Do you buy houses in specific Zanesville neighborhoods like Putnam, McIntire Terrace or Fairmont Avenue?
We consider houses across Zanesville and Muskingum County, including those areas. Each offer is based on the individual house and its condition, not the neighborhood name.
Am I obligated to sell after I send my address or call you?
No. Sending the address or calling starts a conversation, not a contract. We speak with the owner of the house before anything moves forward, we send a written offer, and you decide whether to accept it.
