What As-Is Means When You Sell to Us
- Any condition: old roof, foundation issues, outdated everything, full of stuff. Leave it all.
- Major repairs are fine: foundation, roof, plumbing, fire or water damage.
- No cleanout: take what you want to keep and leave the rest; we'll handle the cleanout and the repairs after closing.
- No inspections or appraisals, and no financing contingency, so there are no lender surprises at the last minute.
- No showings or open houses.
- Title and code issues like liens, back taxes or city code violations are situations we buy in.
Older Housing Is Common Across the Valley
Census estimates show 47% of Fresno County's housing was built before 1980, along with 45% in Tulare County, 41% in Merced County and 37% in Madera County.
Older homes can come with disclosure obligations. Lead-based paint was banned for home use in 1978 but is still present in millions of homes, and federal rules require sellers of most pre-1978 housing to disclose known lead-based paint and hazards before a buyer signs. A real estate attorney can tell you what applies to your sale.
As-Is Cash Sale vs. Fixing Up and Listing
Listing works for some homes. But if you want speed and no repairs, it helps to compare. A traditional sale can mean repairs, cleaning, staging and inspection fixes paid by you, and financing, appraisal or inspection problems can kill the sale.
With us, you get a fair cash offer in 24 hours, and you choose the closing date. Our offer is free and there's no obligation.
Three Simple Steps to Sold
Listing a house can mean months of repairs, open houses, and buyers backing out. Here's how selling to Spark Home Offers works instead.
