About
A local buyer, not a call centre.
Hinge Properties buys houses directly in the Bay Area and Northern Central Valley. We are not agents, we are not listing your home, and we are not a national brand routing your details to whoever is nearest.
Why we started this
[[FOUNDING STORY — 150–250 words. What brought you into buying houses, the first property, why you chose this market, and what you saw other buyers doing that you wanted to do differently. Specific beats polished: a real street, a real problem, a real seller.]]
[[Second paragraph — what the business looks like now. How many houses, how long you have been at it, what you do with the properties afterwards (rent, renovate and resell, hold). Sellers care what happens to the house they raised a family in.]]
How we hold ourselves
-
The number does not change after you commit
The most common complaint about this industry is a price that gets renegotiated down once the seller is emotionally committed. We price off the walkthrough. Barring something genuinely hidden — an undisclosed structural issue, a lien nobody knew about — the number we put in writing is the number at closing.
-
We buy it ourselves
We are not assigning your contract to a stranger and taking a fee in the middle. We close with our own funds, which is why we can commit to a date and actually hold it.
-
We will tell you when to list instead
If your house is in good shape and you are not under time pressure, an agent will almost certainly net you more. We say so. A deal we talk you out of costs us nothing compared to a reputation in a market this small.
-
You see the working
Every offer comes with the comparable sales and the repair estimate behind it. If you think we have the repairs wrong, push back — we have adjusted plenty of times.
