Moving on a deadline
Can you sell a house fast when you have to move?
Yes. A cash sale doesn't wait on showings or a buyer's mortgage, and you choose the closing date, so it can line up with your move. We can close in as little as 21 to 42 days once the title work has cleared, or later if you need more time.
Relocating for a job
Tell us your start date and the date you need to close. We plan the closing around your move, not the other way around.
Downsizing
Moving to a smaller place? You don't repair, stage or clean out anything you don't want to take.
Already moved out
An empty house still costs money and can change your insurance. We buy vacant houses as-is.
Before or after?
Sell before you move, or after?
Both work. Here is what each one means for your money and your time.
Selling before you move
- You know your proceeds before you commit to the next home
- You stop paying to keep the old house
- You need a closing date that fits your move, which a cash sale lets you set
Selling after you move
- Less time pressure, if you can afford to wait
- You keep paying the mortgage, taxes, insurance and utilities until it closes
- A vacant house can change your insurance, and it needs regular checks
Selling to us vs. listing
What changes when you're moving
If you are packing, or already in another city, the details matter. If listing is the better fit for your house, we'll tell you.
| Selling to Eagle Cash Buyers | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Showings | No public showings while you pack or after you've left | Showings and open houses until it sells |
| Repairs from afar | None. We buy as-is, so you don't manage contractors from another city | Often expected before listing, or given back in price after the inspection |
| Your move date | You pick the closing date so it fits your move | Depends on when a buyer is found and when their loan closes |
| Agent commission | None on a direct sale to us | Negotiable, often a percentage of the price |
| Closing costs | We pay them, except your share of any transfer tax | Title, recording and closing fees, plus prorations |
| Price | Usually lower than a fully repaired home could get | Often higher, if the house is market-ready and you can wait |
Your actual net depends on your loan payoff, prorations and contract terms. The closing professional gives you a settlement statement showing every charge and credit before closing.

Reviews
What sellers say about working with us
Cannot recommend Mr. Oren and his team enough if you have a property or home that you are looking to sell fast. The professionalism and transparency they show is not comparable to other cash home buyers. From the point of initial contact all the way to closing day, the team at Eagle Cash Buyers kept their word with consistent updates throughout the process. Thank you for the integrity you have shown during this time of distress. Highly recommended.
Alex Anthony was incredible, responsive, no hidden scams and straightforward. Didn't make any promises until REAL numbers were established, which is extremely respectable. Not only was he efficient, he was fast too. He understood our situation with great empathy and was very personable and patient. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, Alex will be my first call.
Fast, professional, kind and understanding. Thank you for making this easy.
Allan was very helpful and the process was fast and easy. I highly recommend.

Questions
Selling a house when you have to move: common questions
Is it better to sell my house before or after I move?
It depends on your timeline and your finances. If you sell first, you know your proceeds before you commit to the next home, and you stop paying to keep the old one. If you sell after, you have less time pressure, but you keep paying the mortgage, taxes, insurance and utilities on the empty house until it closes, and a vacant house can change your insurance. A cash sale lets you pick a closing date near your move. A listing may bring a higher price if you have time, so compare the two with a realtor and a written offer.
How fast can you close?
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.
How quickly can I get an offer?
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.
Can I choose my own closing date?
Yes. We can close in as little as 21 to 42 days once the title work has cleared, or later if you need more time, and you pick the date. The timeline depends on title, liens, mortgage payoffs and the closing provider, so tell us your move date early.
Do I need to make repairs or clean out the house?
No. We buy houses as-is, including ones that need major repairs. Leave what you don't want to take.
Who pays closing costs?
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.
Will I pay a real estate agent commission?
Not on a direct sale to us. Eagle does not charge you an agent commission when you sell your house directly to us.
Will I get full market value if I sell for cash?
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.
What happens after I accept the offer?
You sign a purchase agreement that sets out the price, the closing date and the other terms. A title company, escrow holder or closing attorney then checks the title and arranges the payoffs. You sign at closing, in person or remotely as the closing agent arranges, and your proceeds are paid at closing.
Am I committed once I get an offer?
No. An offer is only an offer. Nothing is binding until you and Eagle sign a purchase agreement.
Will Eagle 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, 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.
