Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Lafayette Home.

How quickly can I get an offer for my Lafayette house?

We pride ourselves on efficiency. Once you provide us with your property details, you can expect a fair, no-obligation cash offer for your Lafayette home within 24-48 hours. Our goal is to make the process as fast and seamless as possible.

Do I need to make any repairs or clean my Lafayette property before selling?

Absolutely not. We buy homes in Lafayette in any condition. Whether your property has aging galvanized plumbing, needs a new roof, or simply requires a deep clean, we'll take it off your hands as-is. This saves you significant time, money, and effort.

How does your offer compare to listing with a traditional Lafayette real estate agent?

While a traditional agent like Compass will list your home on the open market, our service offers a direct cash sale. This means no commissions (saving you up to $132,000 in Lafayette), no closing costs, no contingencies, and a much faster closing timeline. It's ideal for sellers prioritizing speed and convenience.

What if my Lafayette home is in a FEMA Flood Zone AE?

We buy properties in all conditions and locations, including those in FEMA Flood Zone AE. Properties in specific flood zones can be harder to sell traditionally due to insurance and financing requirements, but we are prepared to purchase them as-is, simplifying your sale process.

Are there any specific zoning hazards in Lafayette that affect selling?

Lafayette has various zoning regulations, including strict tree protection ordinances and specific rules for hillside development. These can sometimes complicate sales, requiring special permits or disclosures. When you sell to us, you bypass these potential bureaucratic delays as we handle all post-purchase compliance.
