How to Know We're Legit

Worried about scams? Here's how to verify we're the real deal:

Major Repairs Can Cost Thousands

Foundation issues, roof replacement, AC problems, or other major repairs can cost thousands of dollars and take months to complete. Many traditional buyers won't touch a house needing major work, and fixing it yourself can drain your savings.

Why Selling to Us Beats Major Repairs

We Buy As-Is

We buy houses needing major repairs exactly as they are—no need to fix anything before selling.

Licensed General Contractor

As a licensed GC (CGC1534000), we know the real costs of repairs and can make fair offers based on actual repair costs.

No Repair Surprises

We know what we're buying and factor in the cost of repairs in our offer—no surprises.

Fast Closing

We can close in 7-60 days—much faster than waiting for repairs to be completed.

Fair Market Value

We provide fair offers based on After Repair Value (ARV) minus actual repair costs, not lowball offers.

No Commissions or Fees

We don't charge commissions or junk fees. The price we offer is the price you get.

How We Handle Major Repairs

Real Example

A homeowner in Orlando had a house with foundation issues and a failing roof. The repairs would have cost $45,000. Traditional buyers walked away. We bought the house for $280,000, handled all the repairs ourselves (as licensed GCs), and the seller avoided months of dealing with contractors and inspections.

Florida Real Estate Law

Reference: Florida Statutes §689 (Conveyances)

  • Florida law requires full disclosure of known defects under §689.25 — as-is sales to us eliminate your disclosure risk.
  • Florida has no state income tax, which can be advantageous when structuring a quick sale and relocating.
  • Title insurance is required by Florida law for all real estate transactions to protect both buyer and seller.
  • We close with a licensed Florida title company that handles all paperwork, payoffs, and recordings.

As of February 2026, the Florida statewide median home price is $415,000, down from a $450,000 peak in 2022 but still 40% higher than pre-COVID levels. Homes are spending 77–80 days on the market — significantly longer than the national median of 50 days. Single-family inventory stands at 5.1 months for single-family homes and 9+ months for condos, signaling a more balanced market with buyers gaining negotiating leverage.
