Fire damaged house: the short version
No repairs, no cleanup
We buy fire-damaged houses in their current condition, including ones that have been boarded up.
Your insurance claim is yours
Selling the property doesn't have to mean giving up your claim. Talk to your adjuster about how a sale affects it before you sign anything.
Uninsured or underinsured
If the payout won't cover a rebuild, selling the house as-is may leave you better off than starting a rebuild you can't finish.

The insurance claim comes first
Call your insurer and start the claim before you decide anything. If you have a mortgage, the insurance check is often made out to you and the lender together, and the lender may control how it's released. Your adjuster can tell you what happens to the claim money if you sell before repairs.
Securing the house
A fire-damaged house needs to be boarded and secured, and the city or county may require it. Vacant fire damage attracts squatters and code complaints quickly.
Repair or sell
Repairs after a fire often mean permits, smoke and water damage in places you can't see, and months of work. If you don't want to manage that, you can sell the house as it stands and keep any part of the claim your policy lets you keep.
What a buyer looks at
How much of the structure is sound, the roof, the wiring, and whether the lot itself is worth more than the house. We walk through it with you and price what we see.
How selling your house to us works
From the first call to money in your account. No step costs you anything until closing.
Step 1Tell us about the house
Call, text or fill in the form. The address and a sentence about what's going on is enough to start.
Step 2We come and look
One of us walks through with you, usually within a few days. No cleaning up beforehand.
Step 3You get a written offer
A cash price with our reasoning, and no obligation. Take your time, and show it to anyone you like.
Step 4Close when it suits you
Closing happens at a local title company. You pick the date, and you're paid by the title company at closing.
We're local buyers, not a national call center, so the person who looks at your house is the person who makes the offer.
Get my cash offerWe help with everything that comes with selling
Most of the work in selling isn't the paperwork. It's the stuff in the garage, the move, figuring out where you'll go next. We help with that too.
Leave what you don't want
Take what matters to you and leave the rest. We donate what we can to local charity groups and take the rest to the dump.
Help with the move
We can set up local movers for the things you're taking, and help pay for them.
Help finding your next home
If you're buying your next place, we can recommend local real estate agents to help you find it.
Whatever else you need
Something else standing in the way? Ask us. If we can help, we will, whether we buy your house or not.
