"I know the Medford market is unique. I know driving I-93 to Boston is a grind. I see Ranch homes dealing with Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels or strict permitting for exterior alterations. Unlike Keller Williams Medford, I don't ask you to fix it. I buy it as-is, saving you $45,000 in commissions. We handle the Eversource and City of Medford Assessor's Office paperwork for you."

Navigating the sale of an inherited property in Medford involves complex legal steps. In Massachusetts, the probate process can be lengthy, often taking months or even years depending on the estate's complexity. Dealing with the Middlesex Registry of Deeds and the courts adds layers of bureaucracy, especially for out-of-state heirs. We simplify this. Our team works directly with estates to purchase properties quickly, providing liquidity without the need for traditional market listings, agent fees, or drawn-out legal battles. We understand the need for a respectful, efficient transaction during such times.
Facing foreclosure can be overwhelming. Massachusetts employs a non-judicial (power of sale) foreclosure process, which can move quickly once initiated. While the legal framework requires lenders to provide specific notices, including a 150-day right to cure period for some mortgages before a foreclosure sale can be scheduled, time is still critical. Selling your house for cash offers a viable alternative to avoid foreclosure, protecting your credit and allowing you to retain equity. We can often close within days, helping you escape the stress and public record of a foreclosure on your Medford property.
Many older Ranch homes in Medford carry their share of deferred maintenance or unpermitted work. Issues like outdated electrical systems, especially those with Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels, can trigger costly requirements for permits and professional repairs before a traditional sale. The City of Medford Assessor's Office and building department can be strict, making compliance difficult and expensive. We buy houses as-is, meaning you don't need to worry about obtaining permits, fixing code violations, or making any repairs. This saves you significant time, money, and stress.

|---|---|---|
| Federal Pacific Electric Panels | $2,500 - $5,000 | $0 (We buy as-is) |
| Roof Replacement | $10,000 - $25,000 | $0 (We buy as-is) |
| Foundation Repair | $15,000 - $40,000+ | $0 (We buy as-is) |
Max's Insight:
Medford code enforcement is strict about permitting for exterior alterations. Attempting renovations without proper permits can lead to fines and forced remediation. Selling to us eliminates this risk entirely, even if violations exist.

Massachusetts primarily uses a non-judicial (power of sale) foreclosure process. This timeline can vary but typically involves at least 150 days from the initial notice of default to a potential auction. We can often help homeowners sell their property before this process completes, providing a quicker resolution and preserving your credit.
In Medford homes built between 1950 and 1980, a common issue we encounter is the presence of Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels. These panels are known to be faulty and can pose fire hazards. We buy houses with these and other defects, saving you the expense and hassle of replacement or repair.
Our cash offer means you avoid paying a 6% realtor commission, which for an average Medford home is around $45,000. You also save on closing costs, staging, and repairs that agents often require. We provide a straightforward offer, closing on your timeline, without the lengthy market exposure or public showings typically associated with traditional listings by brokerages like Keller Williams Medford.
