Frequently Asked Questions

We can close in as little as 7 days once title work clears. Most sellers choose 14–30 days depending on their situation. You set the date — we work around your schedule, not ours.

Compare that to a traditional listing, which typically takes 30–90+ days from list to close, with no guarantee the deal holds together.

No. We buy houses as-is — any condition, any level of deferred maintenance. Don't repair, don't clean, don't stage. Take what you want and leave the rest — we handle cleanup and renovations after closing.

This includes foundation issues, roof damage, fire or water damage, outdated systems, mold, or just years of clutter. We've seen everything.

No commissions. No agent fees. We also pay typical closing costs. What we offer is what you walk away with — there are no deductions or surprise charges at the closing table.

With a traditional listing, sellers typically pay 5–6% in commissions plus closing costs. On a $200,000 home that's $10,000–$14,000 out of your pocket before you account for repairs or staging.

None whatsoever. Requesting an offer is completely free. You can take as much time as you need to decide, ask questions, get advice from family, or explore other options. We will never pressure you.

If you do sign a purchase contract with us, Oklahoma law gives you a two-business-day right of cancellation, which we disclose in writing.

We are a private home buying company affiliated with GRID Real Estate. We buy houses directly — we are not listing your home on the MLS or acting as your agent. We represent our own interest as the buyer.

This distinction matters: as a direct buyer we can move faster, skip the listing process entirely, and pay your closing costs. If you want your home listed on the MLS to compete for the highest price on the open market, we can connect you with a GRID agent for that too.

We start with the home's after-repair value (ARV) — what it would sell for on the open market in updated condition, based on recent comparable sales in your Norman neighborhood. Then we subtract:

• Estimated repair and renovation costs
• Holding costs (taxes, insurance, utilities while we work)
• Typical closing costs and transaction fees
• A modest profit margin (we're running a business)

What remains is your cash offer. We're happy to walk you through the math — just ask. Our goal is for you to understand every number.

We'll be straight with you: our offer is typically below what you'd get if you listed at full retail, had a perfectly updated home, and waited 60–90 days for the right buyer. That's the trade-off for speed, certainty, and zero fees.

But when you factor in no commission (5–6%), no closing costs, no repair budget, and no months of carrying costs (mortgage, taxes, insurance), the net difference is often much smaller than it first appears — and sometimes the cash offer nets you more.

There is zero obligation to accept. Compare our offer to your alternatives and decide what's best for you.

Most sellers receive a written offer within 24 hours of contacting us — often the same day. For properties that need an in-person walkthrough before we can finalize numbers, we'll schedule that quickly and have an offer to you within 24–48 hours after.

Yes. We present our best number upfront, but we're always open to a conversation. If you have information that affects the value — a recent appraisal, a lower repair estimate from a contractor, a unique feature of the property — share it and we'll consider it.

Many title issues can be resolved at closing without you having to fix them first. The title company will run a title search and identify anything outstanding. Common items like unpaid property taxes, mechanic's liens, or HOA liens are often paid out of closing proceeds.

Let us know about any known issues upfront — we've dealt with most of them before and can tell you quickly whether it affects our ability to close.

Yes — but timing matters. If you have received a Notice of Sale or are close to an auction date, contact us immediately. As long as we have enough time to open title, confirm payoff figures with your lender, and close, we can often stop the foreclosure.

A cash sale before the auction date can protect your credit, satisfy the mortgage balance, and put any remaining equity in your pocket. Don't wait — the timeline shrinks fast. Call us at 405-310-1221.

We buy inherited properties regularly. The process depends on whether the estate has gone through probate. The title company will confirm exactly what documents are needed — typically a Letters Testamentary or Small Estate Affidavit for Oklahoma properties.

You don't need to repair, clean, or remove items before closing. Leave what you don't want and we'll handle the rest. Multiple heirs? As long as all parties agree to sell and can sign, we can work with that too.

Yes. We buy tenant-occupied rentals regularly — including properties with problem tenants. You do not need to evict anyone before selling to us. We can honor existing leases and coordinate property access with your tenants or property manager.

This is one of the most common reasons landlords come to us: they're done dealing with the property and don't want to go through a lengthy eviction before they can sell.

Yes. When both parties agree to sell, a quick cash sale can remove the house from the divorce process entirely — no showings, no lingering mortgage to split, no months of uncertainty. The title company coordinates signatures and can distribute proceeds according to a divorce decree or agreed split.

We've helped many couples in this situation. The faster it closes, the faster both parties can move forward.

Yes — this is actually one of our most common purchases. Traditional buyers and their lenders typically won't touch homes with major structural, roof, or fire/water damage. We buy them regularly and price our offer to account for the repair costs.

You don't need a contractor estimate before reaching out. We'll assess the property ourselves and build that into the offer.

Absolutely. Job transfers, military relocations, and family moves are common reasons sellers come to us. We can close in as little as 7 days and coordinate the timing with your move-out date so you're not juggling two transitions at once.

We can also buy before you've fully vacated — you don't need to be out before closing in all cases. Call us to discuss your specific timeline.

Yes. We buy condos and townhomes in Norman and surrounding areas. The title company handles HOA transfer documents and any outstanding dues. Tired of HOA fees? We can take that off your plate.

Yes. We buy duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and small apartment buildings. We can purchase with tenants in place and honor existing leases. If you're a tired landlord ready to exit, we can make it straightforward.

Occasionally, depending on the location and zoning. Call us at 405-310-1221 with the details and we'll tell you quickly whether it's something we can look at.

A local title company handles all closings. They run the title search, prepare the closing documents, collect signatures, and issue your payment. You receive a clear HUD-1 settlement statement before signing so you can see every dollar.

You are welcome to use your own title company or attorney if you prefer. We work with whomever you're comfortable with.

Payment is typically by wire transfer to your bank account on the closing date, or by cashier's check if you prefer. The title company disburses funds — not us directly — so there's a clear record of every dollar.

Yes. We work around your schedule. Want to close in 7 days? We'll move fast. Need 60 days because you're buying another home? No problem. The closing date goes in the contract as whatever you agree to.

Oklahoma does not require an attorney to close a real estate transaction — the title company can handle it. However, you are always welcome to have an attorney review the purchase contract before you sign. We have no problem with that and will never rush you away from getting independent advice.

Our primary focus is Norman and the surrounding Cleveland and Pottawatomie county communities. We actively buy in:

• Norman, OK (all neighborhoods)
• Moore, OK
• Noble, OK
• Lexington, OK
• Tecumseh, OK

If your property is in a nearby city not listed, call us at 405-310-1221 — we can often make exceptions for the right property.

Our focus is the south OKC metro — Norman, Moore, Noble, Lexington, and Tecumseh. For properties further north in the OKC metro, call us and we'll let you know if it's in our current buying area. We expand from time to time.
