Max Cohen, Port St. Lucie Home Buyer

A Contractor Who Knows Port St. Lucie

I've been buying and renovating houses in Florida since 2014. When a Port St. Lucie property comes in, I look at the actual condition, title issues, insurance problems, and repair scope before I make an offer. As a State Certified General Contractor (CGC1534000), I price repairs myself instead of guessing. That is why our offers hold up at closing.

We use standard FAR/BAR "As-Is" contracts and close with St. Lucie County title companies.

Selling a House in Port St. Lucie? Here's What We See.

Port St. Lucie was built by General Development Corporation starting in the 1960s, and most of the housing inventory still reflects that origin. The 1980s-1990s homes in River Park and Sandpiper Bay have polybutylene plumbing that fails without warning, corroding from the inside until a pipe bursts during a showing. Homes built during the 2005-2007 boom in Tradition and Torino have a different problem: Chinese drywall that corrodes copper wiring and HVAC coils, makes the home uninsurable with most carriers, and requires full gut remediation to fix. These aren't rare exceptions in Port St. Lucie. They're widespread enough that experienced local buyers know to look for them on every offer.

The St. Lucie County market in 2026 is working against sellers who need top dollar. The median price is around $366,000 and homes are sitting 55 days before going under contract, up from 38 days in 2024. Prices are down about 2.2% year over year. Insurance is the hidden killer: carriers are non-renewing policies on homes with roofs older than 15 years, and a four-point inspection that flags the roof will stop a conventional buyer's financing before you get to closing. We pay cash, so none of that matters to us.

We buy across all of Port St. Lucie and the surrounding Treasure Coast. Jensen Beach, Palm City, and Stuart come up often because sellers there face the same insurance and condition issues without the depth of buyer pool that larger markets have. Fort Pierce to the north is a market we know well too, particularly for inherited properties and vacant homes moving through probate in the 19th Judicial Circuit. If your property is anywhere in St. Lucie County or the surrounding area, reach out and we'll give you a number after a fast property review.

If you're facing foreclosure in St. Lucie County, there's time to act. Florida is a judicial foreclosure state, and the 19th Judicial Circuit typically takes 10-15 months from missed payment to final judgment. You can sell the property right up until the certificate of sale is filed. A cash closing in 7-14 days can satisfy the lender, stop the foreclosure, and keep it off your credit record.

Port St. Lucie Home Selling FAQ

How fast can you close on a Port St. Lucie house?

We can close in 7 to 30 days when title is clear on most Port St. Lucie properties. Complex situations like probate or title issues in St. Lucie County may take 14-30 days. You pick the date.

Do I need to make repairs before selling?

Usually, no pre-sale repairs are needed. We review the roof, mold, electrical, foundation, cleanup, access, and insurance issues before putting repair assumptions in writing.

How much will you pay for my Port St. Lucie house?

We base offers on current Port St. Lucie market comps and the home's as-is condition. As a licensed general contractor, we use real renovation numbers. We start with nearby as-repaired value, then subtract repairs, closing costs, title risk, holding time, and resale risk.

Are there any fees or commissions?

No listing agent or seller service fee. The written offer states seller costs before you sign. Mortgage payoff, taxes, liens, HOA or condo balances, and seller-side obligations can still affect the final net shown by the title company.

Single-family homes, condos, townhouses, duplexes, and rental properties. We review repair, title, probate, foreclosure, divorce, and tenant-occupied issues in St. Lucie County before putting terms in writing.

Before you compare offers

What changes an as-is offer in Port St. Lucie

Two Port St. Lucie houses with the same bedroom count can have very different cash offers. The useful number depends on title, payoff, repair scope, insurance, code history, association rules, and how quickly the seller needs a clear closing.

Port St. Lucie issues that can change the number

Port St. Lucie sellers often run into roof-age insurance questions, vacant or long-owned property condition, inherited ownership, open permits, payoff shortages, and repairs that make retail financing harder. The offer should separate repair risk from payoff and seller-cost math.

Title and payoff

Pull the mortgage payoff, property-tax balance, HOA or condo balance, code liens, judgments, and any open probate or divorce orders before relying on a net number.

Repairs and insurance

Roof age, electrical panels, plumbing, AC, flood-zone risk, storm history, foundation movement, and open permits can change whether a financed buyer can close.

Access and occupancy

Tenants, inherited belongings, vacant-home security, elderly-owner move timing, and association move-out rules can matter as much as the repair estimate.

How to verify records

Use St. Lucie County records, your latest mortgage statement, association ledgers, insurance paperwork, and repair photos. A title company should confirm the final payoff and closing statement.

What to gather before asking for a written offer

Mortgage payoff, latest tax bill, insurance renewal or nonrenewal letters, permit records, repair photos, probate or heir paperwork, and HOA documents if applicable.

Questions worth asking before you sign

  • What happens if title finds a lien, payoff shortage, or open permit? The answer should be in the contract or handled by the title company, not guessed over the phone.
  • Which costs can still reduce my net? Mortgage payoff, taxes, HOA or condo balances, code liens, and seller-side obligations should be separated from any buyer-paid closing costs.
  • What repair number are you using? Ask whether the offer assumes roof, insurance, electrical, plumbing, cleanout, tenant, mold, or permit risk.
