ServicesWe Buy Houses for Cash
We Buy Houses for Cash in San Fernando
Sell the property to us directly, as-is, with no repairs and no commissions or fees on our side. We walk through it with you, take photos of what we find, and explain how each one moved the number. The closing date is yours to pick.
A direct sale with the reasoning out in the open
With a direct cash sale, we are the buyer. No lender has to sign off and no appraiser has to schedule a visit. Nobody tours the rooms except us. You receive a single written offer and decide, on your own time, if it works.
The difference with us is that you see how we got there. On the walkthrough we photograph the roof, the kitchen, the pipes under the sinks, the electrical panel and anything else that touches value. You get that set back with short notes, so the offer comes with its reasons attached.
Cash is not always the best route. If a sale on the open market through our Seller's Agent service would likely put more in your pocket, we will say so and show you both options before you commit.
What comes with a cash sale
A confidential valuation
First we talk about the property and what you need the sale to do for you. Nothing you share leaves our office, and having the conversation does not commit you to anything.
A documented walkthrough
We come out in person or tour the place with you over video. Each room and major system gets recorded, and the full photo set lands with you along with our notes.
A written cash offer
Price and key terms are spelled out in plain language. If something we saw pulled the number down, we name it and show you where it is.
As-is, no repairs
Leave the paint brushes and contractor calls alone. The work the property needs is built into our offer, and we take care of it after closing.
No commissions, no fees from us
Selling straight to us means no agent commission and no service fees on our end. We also go over the normal California closing costs, like transfer tax, and who pays each one, before anything is signed.
Guarantee cash offer program
Our Guarantee cash offer program is one more option on the table. On the call, we go over whether it suits the property and the date you have in mind.
When a cash offer makes sense
Your date can't slip
Conventional sales often stall when a buyer's loan drags or an appraisal comes in short. Cash takes both out of the picture, so the date you plan around holds.
The repairs feel like too much
Think tired roofs, original wiring or a kitchen that hasn't changed in decades. Plenty of San Fernando houses date from the postwar years and show that wear. We account for it instead of asking you to fix it first.
You'd rather keep it private
There is no sign out front and no one opening closets. The sale stays between you and us until it closes.
A sure thing beats the top dollar
The open market can bring a higher price, along with repair requests, renegotiation and waiting. If a simple, certain sale matters more to you, cash is a good fit.
How the sale moves from call to keys
- 1
Start with a phone conversation
Share what you know about the place, what shape it's in and when you need to be done. You come away with a confidential valuation and our honest view on cash versus the open market.
- 2
Walk the property together
We meet you there or go room by room on a video call. Afterward, you receive our notes and pictures covering everything we looked at.
- 3
Review the written offer
The offer ties back to what we found on the walkthrough. Take as long as you need, ask any question, and run it past family or an attorney first.
- 4
Close on the date you pick
A neutral title company opens escrow, and you choose when it closes. On that day the money moves through escrow and you hand over the keys.
How we arrive at the number
We begin with recent sales of comparable properties nearby, then adjust for what the place needs. Every adjustment points back to a note or photos from the walkthrough, so nothing is left to guesswork. We won't name a figure before we've seen the property.
- Comparable sales
- Similar properties that sold recently set the baseline. Square footage, lot size and the bed and bath count push it up or down.
- Work we take on
- Roof, plumbing, electrical and foundation issues carry the most weight. An old panel or galvanized supply lines are costs we absorb, and our notes list each item we counted.
- Permits and earlier work
- Older Los Angeles County houses often have unpermitted additions or garage conversions. We build in the cost of permitting or correcting them so that job stays off your plate.
- Timing and terms
- A very short escrow, or staying on for a while after closing, can shift the terms. We put the options next to each other so you can compare.
Common questions about a cash sale
Something not covered here? (818) 276-9533
Do I need to make repairs or clean before selling to you?
Not at all. The sale is as-is, so skip the repairs and the deep clean. Take whatever you want to keep, and we can talk about anything you'd prefer to leave.
How can I tell your offer is fair?
You see the photos and notes behind it, plus the comparable sales we relied on. Feel free to weigh it against other offers. If the numbers favor a conventional sale through our Seller's Agent service, we will tell you.
Are there commissions or fees?
A direct sale to us has no commission, and we charge no fees. Every California sale has a few standard closing costs, such as transfer taxes. We review each one and who covers it before you sign.
How quickly can we close?
Mostly it comes down to the title and to what you need. Skipping lender approval and the appraisal removes the steps that usually slow a sale down. You set the closing date, and we work toward it.
Do we have to meet in person?
No. Many sellers start by phone and do the walkthrough over video. If you'd like to sit down and review the offer face to face, you're welcome at our office.
