STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Frequently Asked Questions
Understand how a direct cash sale works before deciding whether it fits your property and priorities.
How long have you been buying houses?+
Our team has been buying as-is properties for more than 10 years, including inherited homes, rentals, and houses that need major repairs.
Do I need to make repairs?+
No. We consider properties in their current condition.
Do you charge commissions?+
No realtor commission is charged when we purchase directly.
How fast can I close?+
We can close in as little as 10 days when the title is clear, or on a later date you choose. Liens, probate, or an association estoppel can add time, and we give you a realistic window once we see the property details.
Do I need to clean the property?+
No. You can leave unwanted items and cleaning for us to handle.
What types of houses do you buy?+
We consider single-family homes, condos, townhomes, rentals, small multifamily properties, and vacant land.
Do you buy tenant-occupied properties?+
Yes, depending on lease and occupancy details. Tell us what you know and we will review the situation.
Do you buy inherited properties?+
Yes. Ownership and probate details can affect timing, so we may ask who is authorized to sell.
Do you buy houses in foreclosure?+
We consider properties in foreclosure situations, but deadlines matter. A local real estate attorney or housing counselor can explain legal options.
How is the offer calculated?+
We consider location, condition, property type, comparable sales, occupancy, and the cost and risk of needed work.
Am I required to accept the offer?+
No. Requesting an offer creates no obligation to sell.
Do you buy properties with liens?+
Sometimes. The title company identifies liens and explains what must be resolved before or at closing.
Do you buy properties needing major repairs?+
Yes. Structural, roof, fire, water, and deferred-maintenance issues can all be reviewed.
Are you licensed real estate agents?+
Our owner, Tyson E. Sam, is a Florida real estate broker (License 3565210) and the broker of record of BreakThru Realty, a licensed Florida brokerage with the same ownership as Neighborhood Cash Buyers. When we make you an offer, we are buying the property for ourselves and do not represent you. Our license is a Florida license; in other states we buy directly and do not act as anyone's agent.
What if listing my house would get me more?+
Then listing may be the better choice, and we will tell you so. Compare what you would net, not the headline prices, with our cash offer vs realtor calculator. In Florida, BreakThru Realty can list the property for you; elsewhere, a local agent can.
