Why Homeowners Across the DMV Trust Old Fashioned Home Buyers
If you’re thinking about selling your house for cash, it’s smart to be careful about who you work with. You deserve to know exactly who you’re dealing with — so here’s the honest truth about us, and how we protect you every step of the way.
The people behind Old Fashioned Home Buyers
We’re Anny and Mourad — a small, family-run team that buys houses right here in the DMV. We’re not a national franchise or a call center reading from a script. When you reach out, you talk to us directly, and we’re the same people who’ll sit at the closing table with you.
We started this business the old fashioned way: by treating homeowners like neighbors, not transactions. Whether you’re facing foreclosure, sorting out an inherited home, or just tired of a property that’s become a burden, we’ll give you a fair cash offer, a straight answer, and the time and space to decide what’s right for you — with no pressure and no obligation.
Have a question before you fill anything out? Call or text us directly at (240) 200-0897. We’d rather earn your trust with a real conversation than a sales pitch.
We’re local, and we’re real people
Old Fashioned Home Buyers is locally owned and operated by Anny and Mourad, right here in the DMV. When you call, you talk to a real person — not a national call center or a lead-broker who sells your information. We live and work in the same communities we buy houses in: Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.
Our promises to you
- A fair, no-obligation cash offer. You’re never pressured, and you can walk away at any time — no cost, no catch.
- No fees, no commissions, no closing costs. The number we agree on is what you get.
- We buy as-is. No repairs, no cleaning, no showings. Take what matters to you and leave the rest.
- You choose the closing date. Close in as little as 7 days, or on your timeline.
- Complete privacy. Your situation is your business. We’re discreet and respectful, always.
How to tell a trustworthy cash buyer from the rest
Before you work with any “we buy houses” company, make sure they: talk to you like a person and answer your questions; put their offer and terms in writing; never ask you for money up front; and let you close with a reputable local title company or attorney. We do all of the above — and we’re happy to be checked out.
Common questions from sellers
Is there any obligation if I get an offer? None at all. The offer is free and yours to accept or decline.
How do you decide the offer? We look at your home’s condition and recent sales nearby, then make a fair cash offer — and we’ll explain how we got there.
What if my house is in rough shape, or I’m behind on payments or taxes? That’s exactly who we help. We buy as-is, and liens or back taxes are typically settled at closing.
Who handles the closing? A licensed, reputable title company or closing attorney — the same professionals used in any normal home sale.

Worried there's a catch? Here's the honest truth.
We know selling to a cash buyer can feel uncertain. Here are the real answers to what most homeowners ask us.
"Will you just lowball me?"
No. We base every offer on your home's condition, location, and recent nearby sales — and we walk you through exactly how we got the number. There's no pressure to say yes.
"Is this actually legit?"
Yes. We're Anny and Mourad — local DMV buyers, not a national call center. You deal with a real person from your first call all the way to closing.
"Are there hidden fees or commissions?"
None. No agent commissions, no closing costs, no surprise deductions. The cash offer we give you is the amount you walk away with.
"What if my house needs a lot of work?"
That's exactly who we help. We buy houses fully as-is — outdated, damaged, or full of belongings. You don't clean, repair, or fix a thing.
"Do I have to accept the offer?"
Never. The offer is free and no-obligation. Take your time, compare it, talk it over with family — the decision is always yours.
"How fast can this really happen?"
As quickly as 7 days if you need it — or on whatever timeline works for you. If you need more time to move, we work around your schedule.
