The Carrying Cost of an Unwanted Property

Distressed properties are structurally disadvantaged on the MLS: financing falls through, inspections kill deals, and appraisals come in low. Meanwhile taxes, insurance, and maintenance compound monthly.

  • Inspection contingencies that retrade or kill contracts
  • Tenant occupancy that eliminates 90% of retail demand
  • Deferred maintenance that compounds faster than equity
  • Title or lien complications that stall traditional closings
  • Retail buyers requiring financing that won't appraise

Process

  1. Submit property details

    Address, condition notes, occupancy status. Photos expedite valuation.

  2. Valuation and offer

    We run ARV-based underwriting on local comps and present a written cash offer, usually within 24 hours of walkthrough.

  3. Title-company closing

    Licensed closer handles search, payoffs, and disbursement. Standard close: 7-14 days; extended timelines available.

The Economics

  • ARV-based offers, documented. We show our comp basis. Verify it independently — we encourage it.
  • Zero seller transaction costs. No commission, no closing costs, no repair credits.
  • Certainty of execution. Cash purchase. No financing contingency, no appraisal contingency.
  • As-is, including occupants and liens. We underwrite around complications instead of running from them.

Frequently Asked Questions

My house has fire/water/mold damage. Will you still buy it?

That's our bread and butter. Don't spend a dollar on remediation — we'll buy it damaged and handle the cleanup ourselves.

The city cited me for code violations. Can you still buy it?

Yes — code violations transfer with the property and we resolve them after closing. Don't stress about fixing them first.

How do you determine your offer price?

We estimate the after-repair value from recent comparable sales nearby, subtract renovation costs and our margin, and that's your offer. We'll show you the comps if you ask.

What areas do you buy in?

The whole Milwaukee metro: the city, West Allis, Wauwatosa, Brookfield, Waukesha, the south shore suburbs, the North Shore — if it's in the metro, we'll look at it.

I'm behind on my mortgage / facing foreclosure. Can you still buy it?

Yes, but call sooner rather than later — your options shrink as the auction date gets closer. A fast cash close can stop the foreclosure entirely.
