Sell a House in Disrepair in Southfield, MI

That's right. We buy houses in as-is condition and do all the repairs ourselves after closing. You won't be asked to fix anything, clean, or even haul away unwanted items.

Your offer reflects the home's condition and the cost of the work it needs. But we base it on real local sales of similar homes, not lowball formulas. A regular sale costs you repairs, agent commissions, holding costs, and months of stress. Once you subtract all of that, many sellers find a fast cash sale comes out very competitive.

Yes. Fire, smoke, flood, and water damage are some of the most common problems we buy. These homes are nearly impossible to sell to buyers who need a loan. That's exactly where a cash buyer helps most.

We often buy homes with open violations and blight tickets in Detroit and nearby cities. We'll work through the title and city items with you as part of closing.

Often within 7 days once you accept the offer and the title is clear. If you need more time to move out or make plans, you pick the closing date.

As of July 2026, the typical middle-tier Southfield home is worth about $258,011 per the Zillow Home Value Index — up 1.7% over the past year. Actual closed sales tell a similar story — the median Southfield sale price is running about $230,417. That's a citywide midpoint: values differ street to street between Magnolia, Lathrup Village border and Civic Center area and other pockets of Southfield. When we price a house that needs work, we work from recent sales near your address and its true condition, not the citywide average.

On a listed Southfield sale near the typical home value of $258,011, plan on roughly $12,900–$15,500 in agent commission (5–6%), about $2,220 in Michigan transfer tax ($3.75 state + $0.55 Oakland County per $500 of price), plus owner's title insurance, any repair credits from the buyer's inspection, and the carrying costs while it sits on the market. When we buy directly there's no commission and we cover the standard closing costs — you still pay the state and county transfer tax as the seller, but the written offer is otherwise what you keep, less your mortgage payoff and prorated taxes.

All of them. In Southfield that regularly includes mid-century brick ranches, colonials and split-levels, condos and townhomes, tenant-occupied rentals, landlord rental portfolios — plus homes with roof, foundation, plumbing, or fire and water damage. Open code violations or an inspection list from the city don't stop us either. We buy as-is anywhere in Oakland County, and you never repair or clean out a thing.

All of them. That includes Magnolia, Lathrup Village border, Civic Center area, Telegraph corridor and Northland district — and every other street in Southfield. If the property is anywhere in Oakland County, we'll make a written cash offer on it, regardless of condition.

Yes. We buy Southfield houses as-is. That includes older homes near Lathrup Village and the Civic Center area that need big-ticket systems like a roof, furnace, or electrical service updated. You won't pay for a single repair or wait around for contractors. We account for that work in our offer and handle it ourselves after closing.

Definitely. We buy rental properties throughout Southfield, occupied or vacant. So you can leave the landlord business without turning the unit, making repairs, or waiting out a lease. We'll settle rent and the security deposit at closing, and we can buy a single rental or a small portfolio.
