Yes, cash home buyers like FL Home Buyers are absolutely legitimate here in Dover. We’re a real Florida-based company, BBB A+ Accredited, and led by Max Cohen, a licensed General Contractor. We've bought over 100 homes across Florida since 2014, working with reputable local title companies to ensure every sale is safe and transparent. We provide clear written offers and stick to our word.

Our offers in Dover are based on a few things: the house's current condition, its location, what similar homes are selling for in your neighborhood after repairs, and the cost of any necessary renovations. We aim for a fair price that works for both you and us. We always lay out the numbers clearly so you understand how we got to our offer, with no junk fees or hidden costs.

We can move pretty fast. Once we agree on an offer, we can often close on your Dover house in as little as 7 days. If you need more time to pack or find a new place, that's fine too. We're flexible and can typically close within 7-60 days, always on your preferred schedule. Selling as-is means you don't waste time on repairs or waiting for traditional buyers.

Absolutely. For many sellers in Dover, closing in 2 weeks is entirely possible. Since we pay cash and buy houses as-is, we skip the lengthy bank approvals, appraisals, and inspection periods that can delay traditional sales. We work with trusted Florida title companies to make sure the paperwork is handled quickly and efficiently, letting you get your cash fast.

When you sell to FL Home Buyers, you won't pay any commissions or hidden fees. Our offer is the cash you get. We also typically cover all standard closing costs, which usually amount to 1-3% of the sale price. This means more money stays in your pocket, making for a truly simple and transparent transaction compared to listing with an agent.

Generally, you'll need the property deed, proof of identity, and any existing surveys or homeowner's insurance policies. If there are liens or mortgages, we'll help coordinate with the title company to get those payoffs. For inherited properties, probate documents might be needed. We'll guide you through everything, making sure you have all the necessary paperwork for a smooth closing at the Florida title company.

Some companies are less reputable. To protect yourself in Dover, always verify the buyer’s legitimacy. Check their BBB rating (we're A+ Accredited), look for solid local reviews, and ensure they close through a reputable Florida title company (like we do). A transparent offer that clearly explains all costs, or lack thereof, is also a good sign. Don't sign anything you don't understand, and always feel free to get outside advice.

Yes, absolutely. That’s our specialty. We buy houses in Dover completely as-is, regardless of condition. You don’t need to worry about fixing a leaky roof, updating the kitchen, or dealing with cast iron pipe issues. No repairs, no cleaning, and no surprise inspection demands. We'll buy your house exactly as it sits today.

We certainly can. Dealing with tenants can be a huge headache for landlords, especially in Dover. We're experienced in buying tenant-occupied properties, and you won't need to evict anyone or manage lease transfers. We handle all of that, taking the stress off your plate. Just let us know the situation, and we’ll figure out the best approach.

Yes, we specialize in helping families navigate the sale of inherited and probate properties across Florida, including here in Dover. These situations often come with unique challenges, like a house needing significant repairs or being emotionally difficult to manage. We can offer a straightforward cash purchase, helping you close that chapter without the added stress of a traditional sale, even if probate is still ongoing.

The process is pretty simple. You reach out to us with your property details. We then do a quick assessment, often with a walkthrough, to understand its value. After that, we present you with a fair, no-obligation cash offer. If you accept, we handle all the paperwork and close on your timeline through a trusted local title company, usually within a few weeks. It’s designed to be fast, easy, and stress-free.

We make our money by purchasing properties below market value, investing in necessary repairs and renovations, and then reselling them. As Max Cohen is a licensed General Contractor, we're able to accurately estimate repair costs and manage projects efficiently, allowing us to offer competitive prices. Our goal is to create a win-win scenario where you get a fast, no-hassle sale, and we acquire a property we can improve.

Yes, any real estate sale in Florida, including cash sales, will be reported to the IRS by the closing agent using Form 1099-S. Whether capital gains tax applies depends on your specific financial situation, how long you've owned the property, and if it was your primary residence. We are not tax advisors, so we always recommend consulting with a qualified CPA or tax professional to understand your individual tax obligations.

It’s a common situation, and we can definitely help. We're experienced in navigating properties with various types of liens, judgments, or overdue property taxes here in Hillsborough County. When we buy your house for cash, the title company will typically use the sale proceeds to clear these outstanding debts at closing. This means you can sell your property and move forward without having to deal with those issues yourself.
