Moving is hard enough
The problem with listing a house you’re about to leave
When you’re relocating, the house is on a clock. List it and you’re managing showings while packing, hoping an offer comes before the start date, and then waiting 30 to 45 days for the buyer’s loan to close. If it doesn’t sell in time, you’re paying a mortgage in Wisconsin and rent or a second mortgage somewhere else, plus utilities and lawn care on a house nobody lives in, plus the trips back to deal with it.
Corporate relocation packages sometimes help; most don’t cover the carrying costs of a house that sits, or the price drop that comes when a listing goes stale. Military families on orders know the arithmetic even better.
A direct cash sale replaces the uncertainty with a date. We make a written offer within 24 hours, you pick the closing day — the week you leave, or a few weeks after so you can move out at a normal pace — and we close on it. No showings, no repairs, no waiting on a lender, and if you’ve already left, the closing can be done remotely.
Your options
How selling to us works when you’re relocating
Tell us your moving date
That’s the number everything else is built around. Also whether you want to close before you leave or after.
A written offer
With the math, so you can compare it with an agent’s net sheet and the cost of carrying the house for a few more months.
Sign the agreement
We put your closing date in the contract. If plans shift, we shift with them.
The title company prepares everything
Payoff of your mortgage, closing documents and, if you’ve already moved, arrangements for remote signing.
Close and go
Sign in person or remotely, hand over the keys (or leave them with us), and your proceeds are wired the same or next business day.
What we handle so you don’t have to
- A closing date set to your move — before you leave, or after
- Remote closings with electronic signatures or a mobile notary in your new state
- Furniture and belongings you decide not to move
