Reasons to sell us your Chicago house:

Sell “as is"—no costly repairs

When you are selling a home through traditional methods, you are responsible for making repairs. To fix this possible headache, we can buy your house quickly “as is.” What does this mean to you? This means no hassles, no roof to replace, no plumbing to fix, no carpets to replace—nothing. We take care of it all for you, allowing you to sell your home fast for cash.

Avoid pre-foreclosure

Many Americans are currently in the unfortunate position of being unable to pay their mortgage. Even when they place their house on the market they may still go into pre-foreclosure waiting for a buyer. This is where we can help. We can offer a quick closing, allowing you to sell your house for cash. We can help you avoid pre-foreclosure and the credit issues that follow.

We pay normal closing costs.

There are often costly closing costs involved with selling a house through traditional methods. If you want to sell your home fast to our local Chicago home buyers, we pay all of your typical closing costs. That leaves more money for you, and fewer headaches.

Chicago, Illinois is a city with a rich history of diversity.

“Has the real estate agent handled a situation like mine?”
“Will I get the price he says I’ll get?”
“How long will I wait for this house to actually sell?”
“I need to sell my home fast for cash. Will there be a long delay for bank financing?”
