Max Cohen, Licensed General Contractor for FL Home Buyers

Meet Max Cohen: Your Local South Sarasota Cash Buyer

Hi, I'm Max Cohen. I'm a Licensed General Contractor here in Florida, and I’ve been buying houses locally since around 2014. At FL Home Buyers, we focus on helping folks in South Sarasota navigate challenging property situations. You know, those stucco Florida Ranch homes from the 50s, 60s, or 70s? They often come with a hidden gem like old Polybutylene pipes, or sometimes an enclosed lanai that was never permitted. I've seen it all, from storm damage to inherited messes to bad tenants.

Being a contractor means our offers are grounded in real renovation costs, not just guesswork. We can quickly figure out what's truly needed and give you a straightforward cash price. No lowballing, no games. Just a clear path to closing without the usual agent drama, endless showings, or repair headaches. As seen on CBS12, FOX, ABC7, WFLX, we're committed to fair, fast solutions for Florida homeowners. For example, if you list your $520,000 home with an agent, you're looking at about $31,200 in commissions. We save you that, right up front.

Frequently Asked Questions About Selling in South Sarasota

How fast can you close on a house in South Sarasota?

We can close in as little as 7 days on most South Sarasota properties. Complex situations like probate or title issues in Sarasota County may take 14-30 days. You pick the closing date that works for your schedule.

Do you buy ugly houses in South Sarasota?

Yes, we buy houses in any condition in South Sarasota — from cosmetic issues to major structural problems. Storm damage, flood zone complications, and aging roofs — we handle it all. No repairs needed from you.

How much will you pay for my South Sarasota house?

We base our offers on the current South Sarasota market (median around $420,000), the home's as-is condition, and needed repairs. As a licensed contractor, our offers are based on real renovation numbers, not guesses. We typically offer 70-85% of after-repair value.

Are there any fees or commissions when selling to FL Home Buyers?

Zero. No commissions, no closing costs, no hidden fees. The cash offer we present is the amount you walk away with. Compare that to Sarasota County agent commissions of 5-6%, which on a $420,000 home would cost you $23,100.
