Nobody calls us because everything is fine.

• Foreclosure

  A few missed payments don't mean the house is lost. You still have a say in how this ends, and selling to us is one of the ways out, not the only one.

• Inherited house

  When a house comes to you through a loss, the house itself is usually the easy part. We buy estate homes across West Michigan, we're glad to wait on probate, and we won't hurry a family that isn't ready.

• Tenant-occupied

  If the rental has turned into more work than it's worth, you can sell it with the tenants right where they are. Long lease, month to month, Section 8, or a tenant who quit paying: we buy it as it stands, and no one has to be evicted first.

• Back taxes

  When the property taxes go unpaid, it's the county treasurer you're up against, and the county keeps a hard calendar. Here's how that calendar runs, and how selling can settle the taxes before the last date on it.

• Needs major repairs

  Fire damage, a foundation that's giving way, rooms you can barely walk through: none of it needs fixing, cleaning, or explaining before you call. We buy West Michigan houses just as they stand, rough spots and all.

• Divorce

  By the end of a divorce, the house is often the only thing still making two people sit down and negotiate. We're a neutral buyer here in West Michigan, we don't take sides, and one number with one fixed date can end it.

• Vacant house

  An empty house is never really idle: the tax bill, the insurance, and the furnace running for nobody all keep costing you, and each winter takes a little more out of the place. We buy vacant houses, cottages, and tired rentals across West Michigan, and you can sell one without making the drive back.

• Relocating or downsizing

  The moving truck has a date on the calendar, and the house doesn't care about it. We buy houses across West Michigan on the timeline that suits you, whether that's right away or once the boxes are unpacked at the new place.

Not on the list? Call (616) 300-2586 and tell us what's happening. Code violations, a land contract that went sideways, a house from an auction you wish you'd skipped. An odd situation is often where a quick cash sale helps most.

If the house is in good shape and you can wait a couple of months, listing it will usually net you more. We’d rather say that plainly than talk you into a sale.
