What Types of Houses Do We Buy in Detroit?
Blighted or vacant properties
Probate and inherited homes
Properties with code violations
Outdated homes needing major repairs
Rentals with difficult tenants
We’ve also bought homes with extensive damage, prior fires, or severe neglect. Even if a house needs full rehab, we’re still interested. We regularly close on homes with open violations, expired permits, or legal entanglements. Our experience with Detroit offices means we can work through the red tape without burdening the seller.
If you're unsure whether your home qualifies, just reach out. We’ll review the details and walk you through the process with zero pressure.

Leave Behind What You Don’t Want
Packing every item isn't necessary. If you prefer to leave behind unwanted furniture or leftover belongings, we’ll take care of it.
We’ve cleaned out entire homes—attics, garages, and storage rooms. Nothing left behind will lower your offer.
Inherited properties and long-vacant homes often come full of clutter. You don’t have to organize or clean. We make sure everything is cleared for you.
We’ve handled estates where the property was untouched for decades. Even if personal items, paperwork, or furniture remain, we’ll step in after closing and make sure it’s all responsibly removed.
Sell Your House As-Is—No Fixes Needed
No need for repairs or updates. Homes with structural problems, missing appliances, or fire damage are still eligible.
Some homes we’ve bought were untouched for years. Even if there’s drywall damage, water stains, or debris inside, we can still make an offer.
You don’t need contractors or listings. Once you tell us your timeline, we handle the rest.
We’ve seen homes missing copper plumbing, with roof leaks, or even homes where squatters had moved in. It doesn’t scare us off. Our process is built for tough situations.
