How selling your New Jersey house for cash works, start to finish
Three steps, one walkthrough, a closing date you pick. Below is exactly what happens after you call or fill out the form, including how we build the number and what you'll need to bring to closing.
Tell us about the house
Fill out the three-field form or call (973) 520-0243. Peter or a team member calls back the same day, usually within the hour during business hours. The call takes about ten minutes.
We'll ask about the condition of the house, whether anyone is living in it, whether there's a mortgage or liens, and when you'd ideally like to be done. If the house is part of an estate, we'll ask where you are in the probate process.
If a cash sale isn't your best option, we'll say so on this call. Some sellers should list. We'd rather tell you that than waste your week.
One walkthrough, then a written offer
We visit once, at a time that works for you, or do a video walkthrough if you're out of state. Don't clean up. We've bought houses with full basements, active leaks, and tenants who wouldn't open the door.
Within 24 hours you get the offer in writing, with the math behind it (see below). It doesn't expire at midnight and nobody calls you six times a day.
Want to compare it against a listing? Ask. We'll walk you through what an agent would likely net you after commission, repairs and months of carrying costs.
Close at a NJ title company, get paid
Once you accept, we sign a plain-language contract and send it to a New Jersey title company. They run title, clear any liens from the proceeds, and schedule closing for the date you chose. Seven days works when title is clean; most sellers pick two to four weeks so they have time to move.
We pay the closing costs. You take what you want from the house and leave the rest. At closing you get a wire or a check.
Need to stay a few days after closing? Ask about a post-closing occupancy agreement. We do it often.
How do we calculate a cash offer?
Every offer starts with what the house would sell for fully renovated, then works backward. You see each line. If you think our repair estimate is high, show us a contractor's quote and we'll revisit it.
The offer is below full retail. In exchange you skip commissions, repairs, inspections, appraisal risk, showings, and months of taxes, insurance and utilities while a house sits on the market.
A typical timeline
What you'll need
Less than you'd think. If you're missing something, the title company can usually track it down.
You don't need the deed, a survey, an appraisal, or an inspection report. We don't need the house cleaned, repaired or emptied.
