Every QuestionSellers Ask Us.

None. We are the buyer, not an agent. There is no commission, and we pay the closing, title, escrow and recording costs on both sides. The offer we write is the number you walk away with, minus only whatever you still owe on the property.

Usually, yes, and we say so. A cash offer is below what a fully renovated version of your property would sell for on the open market, because we are the ones doing the renovating. What matters is the comparison: our number, on your date, with nothing out of pocket, against a listing minus commission, repairs, carrying costs and months of showings. We will help you run that comparison honestly, even if it means you list.

No, because every property is different and any number we put online would be wrong for yours. On the phone, on your property, we show you all three inputs: what it sells for fixed, what the work costs, and what it costs to hold and sell. The offer comes from those.

About two weeks when title is clean. Fast is your option, not a requirement — many owners choose a date months out so they can move on their own schedule. New Jersey closings run through an attorney and take a little longer to set up.

Often, yes. If you need time between closing and moving, tell us on the first call and we will build it into the agreement in writing.

Any. Leave the furniture, leave the repairs, leave the clutter. Storm damage, a gutted interior, an unfinished renovation, code violations, open permits — our problem after closing, not yours.

No. Take what you want. Everything else stays and we deal with it.

Yes, with the tenant in place. You do not have to serve notice, wait out a lease or deal with a difficult tenant before selling.

Yes. We work with the executor, administrator or personal representative and the estate attorney, and close when the court allows. Florida and New Jersey estates each have their own paperwork; our title company handles both every week.

Everyone with an ownership interest has to sign, yes. We are used to families in three states and one sibling who is hard to reach. Send us who is on title and we will map out who signs what.

We will run the numbers with you honestly. Sometimes a sale works, sometimes it does not, and we will tell you which before you spend any time on it. What we will never do is charge you a fee, ask you to sign anything you do not understand, or promise an outcome we cannot deliver.

No. Back taxes are paid from the proceeds at closing, like a mortgage payoff. The title company handles it. You will know the exact amount before you sign anything.

Liens get paid off at closing out of the sale price, or resolved before closing if they are disputed. Our title company finds every lien on record and tells you the payoff figure. No surprises at the table.

Yes, and it is a specialty. A buildable lot in St. Petersburg, an acre in Pasco, an infill lot in a New Jersey town, acreage in Monroe County. Most cash buyers will not touch land. We build on it, so we price it for what it can become.

Yes. The parcel number from the county is all we need to find it, pull the zoning, check the flood map and see what has sold nearby.

Yes, when the home sits on land you own. The land is what matters to us; the home does not have to be in any particular condition.

Yes. In New Jersey and Pennsylvania an old tank scares away buyers who need a mortgage. It does not scare us. Tell us what you know about it and we price from there.

We buy it as-is and take the town's list ourselves after closing. You do not do the repairs.

No. House Hack is the buyer on the agreement and the buyer at closing, and our own crews do the work afterward. We do not sell our contracts to other investors, in Pennsylvania or anywhere else.

A real estate acquisitions company with its own money and its own construction crews, buying in Pinellas County and the rest of Tampa Bay, New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. Offices in Tampa and northern New Jersey. Jay Henriquez, our Acquisitions Supervisor, or a member of his team is who you will talk to.

You sign the purchase agreement. It goes to a licensed title company, which runs title and finds anything attached to the property — an old mortgage, a judgment, back taxes, an heir who never signed off. We do one walkthrough. The title company clears the payoffs, sets the closing on your date, and you are wired the proceeds when you sign. Whatever you left in the house is ours from then on.

Until you sign the purchase agreement, nothing binds you. After you sign, the agreement spells out the terms for both sides, in plain language, and you can have your attorney read it before you do.

Yes. In Pinellas especially, a house on a good lot is often worth more as a lot than as a house. We price both ways and tell you which one wins.

You can get a written offer from the county records, photos and a phone call. We do one walkthrough before closing to confirm the property is what we discussed — that is the only visit.

Yes. A condo in St. Petersburg, Clearwater or anywhere in Pinellas is a normal purchase for us. We read the association documents and check the reserves and any pending assessments before we make a number, so there are no surprises for either side at closing.

Yes. Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, St. Pete Beach, Indian Rocks — we buy houses with open storm damage, open permits and open code cases as they stand. The case is resolved after closing, by us, and our number accounts for it.

Yes. Most of our sellers are not local. The title company handles signing by mail or with a mobile notary near you, and you never have to travel to the property or the closing.
