We Buy Houses for Cash Across the DMV — DC, Maryland & Northern Virginia

Q: How do you decide what to offer for my house?

We use the industry-standard 70% rule: 70% of your home's After-Repair Value (ARV) minus estimated repair costs. We show you the comparable sales, the repair estimates, and exactly how we arrived at the number.

Q: How fast can you close?

As fast as 7 days. We pay cash, so there are no bank approvals, no appraisals, and no financing contingencies to slow things down. You pick the closing date that works for you.

Q: Do I have to pay any fees or commissions?

No. Zero fees. Zero commissions. We pay all closing costs. The number on your offer is the number you walk away with.

Q: Can I sell if I'm behind on my mortgage?

Yes. We work with homeowners in pre-foreclosure regularly. In most cases, we can close fast enough to pay off the mortgage before the bank completes the foreclosure process, protecting your credit.

Q: Do you buy inherited or probate properties?

Yes. We buy inherited properties during or after probate. We work with the personal representative and title company to handle all legal requirements. Remote closing is available if you live out of state.

Q: What if I have tenants in the property?

We buy properties with tenants in place — paying, non-paying, even mid-eviction. We handle the tenant situation after closing so you can walk away clean.

Q: What areas of the DMV do you serve?

We buy houses throughout Washington DC, Maryland (Montgomery, Prince George's, Anne Arundel, Frederick, Howard, and Charles counties), and Northern Virginia (Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William, Arlington, and Alexandria).

Get a fair cash offer in 24 hours. No repairs, no commissions, no waiting. Close on your timeline, in as little as 7 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you decide what to offer for my house?

We use the 70% rule: 70% of your home’s After-Repair Value (ARV) minus the cost of needed repairs. It’s the industry standard, and we’ll walk you through the math when we present your offer.

How fast can you close?

As fast as 7 days. Most of our closings happen in 14–21 days. You pick the date — we’ll match it.

Do I have to pay any fees or commissions?

No. We pay all closing costs. There are no commissions, no inspection fees, no surprise charges.

What if my house needs major repairs?

That’s exactly the kind of home we buy. Fire damage, water damage, foundation issues — we’ve handled them all. You don’t fix anything.

Can I sell if I'm behind on my mortgage?

Yes. We work with sellers in pre-foreclosure regularly. Time matters — call us at (240) 200-0897 the same day.

Do you buy inherited or probate properties?

Yes. Inherited homes in Maryland and DC have specific probate timelines — we can guide you through the process and buy at any stage.

What if I have tenants in the property?

We buy tenant-occupied rental properties. You don’t need to evict anyone or end leases before we buy.

What areas of the DMV do you serve?

Every county in our DMV: Washington DC, all of Maryland (Montgomery, Prince George’s, Anne Arundel, Frederick, Howard, Charles), and all of Northern Virginia (Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William, Arlington, Alexandria).
