Sell your house fast, as-is, for cash

During business hours, we can often provide an initial offer within minutes to a few hours after receiving the necessary property information. Some properties need more research, photos or a walkthrough before the offer can be finalized. There is no obligation to accept it.

We can close in as little as 21 to 42 days once the title work has cleared, or later if you need more time. You pick the date. The timeline depends on title, liens, mortgage payoffs and the closing provider.

A direct sale for cash is usually the fastest route: no listing, no showings and no wait for a buyer's mortgage approval. With us you can close in as little as 21 to 42 days once the title work clears, or later if you need more time. If you list instead, a realistic price for your local housing market and a house that is easy to show do the most to shorten the wait.

It can be, when speed and certainty matter more to you than the highest price. A house buying company that pays cash takes the house as-is and skips the showings and the wait for a buyer's loan, but its cash offer is usually lower than what a market-ready house could get with a real estate agent. Compare written offers, check who pays which costs at closing, and read the purchase agreement before you sign.

We pay the closing costs on a sale to us, except your share of any transfer tax, and the purchase agreement sets this out. Your mortgage payoff and any liens, delinquent taxes, HOA balances and agreed prorations are paid from your proceeds, as in any sale. The closing professional gives you a settlement statement showing every charge and credit before closing.

Not on a direct sale to us. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission when you sell your house directly to us.

No. We buy houses as-is, including ones that need major repairs. Leave what you don't want to take.

Usually not. A cash offer is usually lower than the price a fully repaired home could reach on the open market, because the buyer takes on the repairs, the holding costs and the risk of reselling. In return you skip the repairs, the showings and the wait. We don't claim to always pay the most; we make a clear offer based on the condition, recent sales nearby and the repairs.

Major repair problems: structural or foundation damage, an old roof, water damage, a failing HVAC system and very outdated interiors, along with location issues. The longer they go unresolved, the more they tend to lower resale value. Before you start a renovation to fix them, compare its cost with what it would add to the price. Selling as-is is the other option.

Very few houses can't be sold at all. What makes one hard to sell on the open market is usually major repairs, title problems such as unresolved liens, poor curb appeal or an asking price set too high. Some loan programs require repairs before they will lend, which shrinks the pool of buyers who can finance the house. Cash buyers like Eagle buy houses in any condition; title problems still have to be resolved before closing.

Don't start a big project before you know it will pay for itself, don't stop paying the mortgage or property taxes while you wait to sell, and don't hide known problems: selling as-is does not remove disclosure duties. Before listing, cleaning up and improving curb appeal usually matter more than costly upgrades. If you sell to a cash buyer, you can skip that work.

No. An offer is only an offer. Nothing is binding until you and Eagle sign a purchase agreement.

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, along with the price, closing date and other 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. We cannot promise to stop or postpone a foreclosure; that depends on the lender or servicer, the foreclosure process in your state, 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 your state can explain your legal options and deadlines.
