Why Major Repairs Can Break Your Budget

You found cracks in your foundation. Or maybe your roof started leaking after that last storm. The HVAC system quit working in the middle of summer.

Here's what happens next. You call contractors. They give you quotes that make your stomach drop. $25,000 for a new roof. $40,000 to fix the foundation. $15,000 to replace the HVAC.

Then you realize something. Your house won't sell on the traditional market with these problems. Buyers want move-in ready homes. Banks won't finance properties that need major work.

The Real Cost of Major Repairs

Let's talk numbers. Real numbers from real homeowners I've worked with:

  • Foundation repairs: Usually start at $5,000. But if you need piers or full replacement, you're looking at $20,000 to $40,000. Sometimes more.
  • Roof replacement: A basic roof runs $8,000 to $12,000. But if you have a large home or need premium materials, expect $15,000 to $25,000.
  • HVAC systems: New central air costs $5,000 to $10,000. But if you need ductwork replaced too, add another $5,000 to $8,000.
  • Plumbing overhauls: Replacing old pipes can cost $3,000 to $10,000 depending on your home's size.
  • Electrical updates: Outdated wiring? That's $2,000 to $8,000 to bring it up to code.

Add it all up. You could be facing $30,000 to $100,000 in repairs before your house is even sellable. And that's if nothing else breaks while you're fixing these issues.

What Happens If You Try to Sell With Major Repairs Needed?

Here's the reality most homeowners don't want to hear:

Traditional buyers won't touch a house with foundation problems. Or a bad roof. Or a broken HVAC system. They want homes they can move into tomorrow, not projects that need months of work.

So you're stuck. You can't afford the repairs. But you can't sell without them. Every month you wait, you're paying:

  • Mortgage payments
  • Property taxes
  • Insurance
  • Utilities
  • Maintenance costs

That's money going out with nothing coming back. Meanwhile, those repair problems aren't getting better. They're getting worse.

How We Handle Major Repairs

I buy houses with major repairs needed. All of them. Foundation issues? I've seen it. Roof problems? Handled it. HVAC failures? No problem.

Here's how it works:

  1. You tell me about the repairs. Be honest. Foundation cracks? Roof leaks? Broken AC? I need to know everything.
  2. I make you an offer. It's based on what your house is worth after repairs. I factor in all the work that needs doing.
  3. You decide. No pressure. No obligation. If the numbers work for you, we move forward.
  4. We close fast. Usually in 7 to 14 days. You get cash. I get a house that needs work. Everyone wins.

The best part? You don't spend a dime on repairs. Not one dollar. I handle all of it after closing. You walk away with cash and peace of mind.

Real Example: Foundation Repair

Last month, a homeowner called me. Her foundation had major cracks. The quote to fix it? $35,000.

She couldn't afford it. She couldn't sell the house with the foundation like that. She was stuck.

I bought her house. She got cash in 10 days. I handled the foundation repair after closing. She moved on with her life instead of being trapped by a house she couldn't fix.

That's what I do. I solve problems other buyers can't or won't touch.

Remember this:

You don't have to fix your house before selling. You don't have to drain your savings. You don't have to wait months for repairs to finish. I buy houses with major repairs as-is, so you can move on with cash in hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fix foundation issues before selling?

No. We buy houses with foundation issues, roof problems, HVAC failures, and other major repairs as-is. You don't need to fix anything before selling to us. We factor in the repair costs when making our offer.

How much will my offer be reduced for major repairs?

Our offers are based on the After Repair Value (ARV) minus the cost of necessary repairs. While we don't offer full retail value for houses needing work, you save by avoiding repair costs, realtor commissions (6%), and closing costs. The net result is often better than repairing and listing.

What if I have multiple major repairs needed?

We buy houses with multiple major repairs needed. Whether it's foundation issues, roof problems, HVAC failure, and plumbing issues all at once, we handle it all. We factor in all repair costs when making our offer.
