Around Keystone, I've seen a lot of good homes burdened by unexpected problems. Many of the older stucco or concrete block ranch homes often have hidden issues like aging polybutylene pipes that can fail at any time. As a Licensed General Contractor since 2014, my job is to understand these real-world costs. That means when FL Home Buyers makes you an offer, it’s not just a guess.
It’s a number based on actual renovation expenses, ensuring you get a fair, honest deal. We’ve helped many folks in Hillsborough County and Keystone with properties they've inherited, rough rental situations, or houses damaged by storms or floods. We aim for clear numbers, simple terms, and no junk fees. That's our promise.
For a typical Keystone home valued around $600,000, listing with a traditional agent like Coldwell Banker would likely mean about $36,000 in agent commissions (6% of the sale price). That doesn’t even count closing costs or any money you’d spend on repairs.
When you sell to FL Home Buyers, we cover standard closing costs, and there are absolutely no commissions. The cash offer you get is what you keep, letting you avoid those significant agent fees and the time-consuming process of repairs and showings.
"Selling a house as-is in this market provides a fantastic alternative, especially for owners who can't or don't want to deal with renovations or tricky tenant situations. It's about finding a solution that fits their unique circumstances."
— Max Cohen, Licensed General Contractor and Founder of FL Home Buyers

This meter reflects a slight tilt towards sellers, but buyers are still taking their time.
Tired of Waiting? Even in a seller-leaning market, a traditional sale in Keystone can still mean weeks or months of showings, repairs, and negotiations. We cut through all that.
Picky Buyers? Higher interest rates mean buyers are being more cautious, often looking for move-in ready homes. Your "as-is" Keystone house might struggle to compete without significant investment.
Your Calm Plan: A direct cash sale provides a calm, numbers-first plan instead of more chaos. You avoid the market's ups and downs, selling on your terms without stress.
We offer a clear path out of probate or landlord drama.
Tell us a little about your Keystone property, like its general condition and why you're looking to sell. This short chat helps us understand your situation, whether it’s a difficult inherited property or a house facing pre-foreclosure.
We'll schedule a quick, no-pressure visit to your house in Keystone, or we can even do a virtual walkthrough. This helps Max, our Licensed General Contractor, accurately assess any needed repairs and ensure our cash offer is grounded in real costs, with no surprises.
You’ll receive a straightforward, written cash offer. If you accept, we close on your schedule, often in as little as 7 days, at a reputable Florida title company. We cover standard closing costs, and you walk away with cash, completely free from the property.
Florida is a judicial foreclosure state. This means if you fall behind on payments for your Keystone home, your lender must go through the court system to take the property back. The process often takes several months, typically 200+ days, giving you some time to find a solution. The Hillsborough County Clerk of the Circuit Court handles these cases. Facing pre-foreclosure or behind on mortgage payments in Keystone can be incredibly stressful. We can often step in quickly with a cash offer to help you avoid foreclosure entirely, protecting your credit and giving you a clean slate.
It's a way to get out from under the pressure before the courts get too involved.
