Sell a House That Needs Major Repairs — As-Is

Fire, water, storm, or structural damage, or just decades out of date? You don't have to fix a thing to sell.

The short version: a house that needs major work can be hard to sell the traditional way — buyers with mortgages often can't close on it, and repairs cost money and time you may not have. Selling as-is to a direct buyer skips all of that.

Houses we buy as-is

Fire, water, and mold damage; foundation and structural problems; roof and system failures; storm and hurricane damage with or without an open insurance claim; code-enforcement issues; hoarder and heavily cluttered homes; and properties that are simply decades out of date. Condition is not a dealbreaker for us — it's our specialty.

Your options

Repair, then list

If repairs are modest and you have time and cash, fixing up and listing may net more. We'll be honest about whether it pencils out.

List as-is on the market

Sometimes an as-is MLS listing works. We'll tell you if that's a realistic path for your property.

Sell directly, as-is

We buy in any condition — no repairs, cleaning, or staging — and close on your timeline with no fees.

How River Capital helps

We'll look at the property, the cost to make it marketable, and what each path would net you — then give you a fair, no-obligation cash number and explain how we got there. Take what you want, leave the rest, and we handle the cleanup and repairs.

Any cash offer is an estimate, is not guaranteed, and is subject to inspection and a signed purchase agreement.
