Sell your Phoenix house without the guesswork
Most cash buyers tell you the offer is fair and leave it there. You are left to wonder what a listing would have brought and what it would have cost. We start from the opposite end. This page shows how a cash sale compares with an as-is listing and a full listing, line by line, so you can decide with your own numbers.
Cash is not always the best answer. If your house is in good shape and you have time, a full listing often nets more. If the roof is shot, the air conditioner died in July, the tenant will not leave, or the bank sent a notice, the faster path can be worth the lower price. Our job is to give you a straight offer and let you compare.
We are a local homebuying company serving Phoenix and the cities around it, from Mesa and Gilbert in the East Valley to Glendale, Surprise, and Avondale in the West Valley. Submit the address in the form above and a real person reviews it.
How it works
Three steps. No pressure at any point.
-
Tell us about the house
Enter the address and answer a few quick questions about the property and why you are selling. It takes a couple of minutes.
-
We review it and send an offer
We look at the property, recent sales nearby, and the repairs it needs, then send you a written cash offer. You decide if it works.
-
You pick the closing date
If you accept, a title company handles the paperwork. You choose a closing date that fits your plans and you are paid at closing.
Cash offer vs. listing your Phoenix house
Here is the trade, shown plainly. Neither side wins every time.
| Feature | Traditional listing | Cash sale to us |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs and prep | You repair, paint, and clean first, or accept a lower price after inspection | We buy as-is |
| Agent commission | Paid by the seller from the sale price, and negotiable | None |
| Showings and open houses | Weeks or months of keeping the house show-ready | None, no strangers walking through |
| Closing date | Depends on the buyer, the lender, and the appraisal | You pick it with us |
| Certainty | A buyer's loan or inspection can fall through | A written offer with no financing contingency |
| Sale price | Usually the highest number if the house is in good shape | Lower, because we take on repairs and risk |
Cash vs. as-is listing vs. full listing, line by line
There are really three ways to sell a Phoenix house, not two. Here is how they stack up on the things that change what ends up in your pocket. We do not put made-up dollar figures in this table. Your numbers depend on your house, so the cells tell you what to look for and the sections below show you how to fill them in.
| Cash sale | As-is listing | Full listing | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who pays for repairs | We do | The buyer, so they price it in | You, before you list |
| Commission | None | Usually yes, listing agent and buyer agent | Usually yes, listing agent and buyer agent |
| Sale price | Lowest of the three | Middle, buyers discount for condition | Highest, if the house shows well |
| Time on market | None | Unknown, depends on price | Unknown, depends on price and season |
| Showings | None | Many | Many |
| Buyer financing risk | None | Yes | Yes |
| Carrying costs while you wait | Stop at closing | Taxes, insurance, utilities, pool, yard keep running | Same, plus the time spent on repairs |
| Closing costs | Spelled out in the contract | Typical seller closing costs | Typical seller closing costs |
| Certainty of closing | High once signed | Lower, inspection and loan can fail | Lower, inspection and loan can fail |
Build your own net sheet
Take what you think a repaired house would sell for. Subtract the repairs you would need to make and the commission you would agree to. Subtract the seller closing costs a title company lists for your sale. Subtract what it costs you each month to hold the house, multiplied by how many months you expect to wait. Subtract your mortgage payoff and any liens. What is left is your net on a full listing.
Now do the same for our offer. The offer is the starting number. Subtract the closing costs in the contract, subtract your payoff, and you have your net on a cash sale. Because there is no commission, no repair bill, and no waiting, the two nets are often closer than the two sale prices make them look. Sometimes the listing still wins by a clear margin. We would rather you find that out before you sign anything.
An agent, a title company, or an attorney can all help you fill in the lines. We will walk through ours when we send an offer.
Houses we buy in the Phoenix area
Phoenix-area houses fail the usual listing test for reasons you do not see in colder cities. We have bought and priced houses with these problems, and you do not need to fix any of them first.
- Dead or failing air conditioning. In this climate a house without working cooling is a hard sell and a miserable place to show. A replacement unit is a big bill and buyers know it.
- Old roofs. Tile roofs with failing underlayment, flat roofs with ponding, and shingle roofs cooked by years of sun.
- Monsoon and storm damage. Wind, hail, and water intrusion from summer storms, including stucco cracks and leaks around windows.
- Pool trouble. Green pools, cracked plaster, dead pumps, and pool equipment older than the buyer.
- Vacant houses. A seasonal home or a house left empty over the summer still has taxes, insurance, utilities, and a yard that needs care.
- Rentals with tenants in place. Single family rentals and small multifamily properties, with or without a lease.
- Outdated houses. Original kitchens and bathrooms, old wiring, and floors nobody has touched in decades.
If your property is not on this list, send it anyway. The point of this site is that we do not need your house to be easy.
Situations we help with
The house is only half the story. These are the circumstances behind most of the calls we get.
Foreclosure or behind on payments
When time is short, a clear cash option helps you decide what to do next.
Divorce
A sale can give both people a clean break and a clear number.
Inherited house
You did not ask for it, you may live far away, and the estate has bills.
Tax liens
If taxes have piled up, selling can stop the balance from growing.
Needs repairs
Roof, air conditioning, pool, or foundation. Sell it in the condition it is in today.
Relocating
Moving for work or family and still carrying a Phoenix house.
Vacant house
An empty home costs money every month and attracts trouble.
Tenants in place
Sell a rental with the tenant in it and stop managing repairs and rent calls.
How fast do Phoenix houses sell, and when?
Sellers ask us two questions all the time. How fast are homes selling in Phoenix right now, and what is the best month to sell? We do not quote market numbers on this page because they change every month and we would rather point you to a source you can check than hand you a stale figure. The county recorder, your local agent, and the major listing sites all publish recent sold prices and days on market for your zip code.
What we can say is how the seasons tend to work here. Summer heat makes showings harder, and a house with a weak air conditioner feels worse at 110 degrees. Winter and early spring bring visitors and seasonal residents, and many sellers like to list then. Those are patterns, not promises. Every house and every block is different.
If you want a deeper walk-through, read our blog posts on the best and hardest months to sell in Phoenix and on how fast homes are selling and how to sell immediately.
What changes the timeline
Three things decide how long a sale takes: price, condition, and your own deadline. A house priced right, in good shape, can sell on the open market in a reasonable time. A house priced too high or in rough shape sits, and every month of sitting costs you taxes, insurance, utilities, and pool and yard care. A direct sale replaces that open-ended wait with a closing date you set.
What it is like to sell to us
Phoenix, East Valley, and West Valley
The Valley is big, and the neighborhoods behave differently. Central and north Phoenix have older houses, many built in the mid-century decades, with original floor plans and the aging systems that come with them. The East Valley, including Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, and Gilbert, mixes older neighborhoods with large newer subdivisions. The West Valley, including Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Avondale, Tolleson, and El Mirage, has everything from historic blocks to master-planned communities.
We make offers across all of it. Each location page explains what we see in that city, so you can judge whether we know your area.
What we will not do
We will not ask you for money. We will not pressure you to sign on the first call. We will not tell you your house is worth nothing, and we will not promise a number we cannot back up. If a sale to us is not the right move, we will say so. Sometimes the best answer is a good agent, an attorney, or a housing counselor, and that is fine with us.
What happens after you say yes
If you accept, we send a purchase agreement that spells out the price, the closing date, and who pays for what. A title company or closing attorney checks the title, handles the paperwork, and holds the funds. You sign, hand over the keys, and get paid at closing. If you need a few extra weeks to move, tell us and we can usually build that into the agreement.
You are welcome to have an attorney read the contract before you sign. We would rather you sign something you understand than something you feel rushed into.
What to have ready
You do not need to prepare the house. It helps to know the address, whether anyone lives there, roughly what condition it is in, and whether there is a mortgage or lien on it. If the property is part of an estate, it helps to know who has legal authority to sell. If you do not know some of this, tell us what you do know and we will work out the rest.
Selling a house you do not want to fix
Most sellers who find us are not dealing with just one problem. A roof needs replacing and the owner has moved out of state. A rental has a tenant who stopped paying and a pool nobody has cleaned in a year. A parent passed away and the family cannot agree on what to do with the house. The common thread is that fixing the house first is not realistic and waiting costs money.
Holding costs in Arizona look a little different than elsewhere. Property taxes and insurance keep running. So do utilities, because a vacant house still needs the air conditioner on a low setting in summer so the inside does not bake. Pool service, landscaping, and sometimes HOA dues continue whether the house is occupied or not. Every month you hold the property usually makes the situation worse, not better.
A direct sale ends those costs on a date you choose. You do not have to guess how a listing will go and you do not have to manage contractors. You get a clear written offer and decide whether it beats your other options.
When a cash sale is not the best fit
If your house is in good shape, you are not in a hurry, and you can afford to prepare it, a traditional listing may bring a higher price. We would rather you know that than waste your time. The cash route makes sense when condition, timing, or stress make the traditional route hard.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can you buy my Phoenix house?
It depends on you as much as on us. We send a written offer after we look at the address and your answers. If you accept, a title company runs the title work and sets a closing date. You pick the date. Some sellers want to close as soon as the title work is done. Others need a few extra weeks to move. We do not promise a number of days because title, liens, and estates change the timeline, and we would rather be straight about that.
What condition does my house need to be in?
Any condition. Old roofs, dead air conditioners, pool problems, stucco cracks, monsoon damage, outdated kitchens, and houses full of belongings are all things we price in. You do not repair, paint, or clean anything before selling.
How much will you offer and how do you calculate it?
We start with what the house would sell for in good condition, based on recent sales nearby. Then we subtract what it would cost to get it there and what it costs us to buy, hold, and resell it. The result is the offer. The comparison section on this page shows the line items so you can build the same math for your own house.
Are there any fees or commissions?
You do not pay us a fee and you do not pay agent commissions on a direct sale. Closing costs depend on the contract, and we spell out who pays what in the purchase agreement before you sign. You can have an attorney read it first.
Can I sell if I am behind on payments or facing foreclosure?
Often yes, but time matters. A sale closes the loan from the proceeds, and a clean payoff is usually better for your credit and your next lease or purchase than a completed foreclosure. Talk to a housing counselor or an attorney about the notice you received, and send us the address so we can tell you what is possible.
Can I sell a house that is listed with an agent or has liens?
A listed house has a listing agreement, and that contract may say what happens if you sell outside it. Check the end date and the cancellation terms first. Liens are common and are paid from the sale proceeds at closing, as long as the sale price covers them. A title company confirms the exact numbers.
Why are cash offers lower than a full listing price?
Because you are skipping things. A full listing price assumes a repaired, staged house, a few weeks or months of showings, commissions, and a buyer who needs financing to clear. A cash offer takes on the repairs, the holding costs, and the resale risk. The gap is real, and the comparison table on this page shows where the money goes so you can judge it yourself.
Which Phoenix areas do you buy in?
Phoenix and the Valley around it. We have pages for Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, and Gilbert in the East Valley, and Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Avondale, Tolleson, and El Mirage in the West Valley. If your city is not listed, send the address anyway.
What happens after I submit the form?
We review the address and your answers. We may text, call, or email if we need a detail. Then we send a written cash offer. If you want to move forward, we sign a purchase agreement and a title company handles the closing. If you do not, you owe nothing.
Is there any obligation to accept your offer?
No. Asking for an offer is free and does not commit you to anything. Compare it with a listing, a different buyer, or keeping the house. If our number does not beat your other options, say no.
