Berkeley, CA
We buy houses in Berkeley — as-is, for cash.
If you own a house in Berkeley and want it sold without repairs, fees or a two-month wait, we'll have a cash number for you inside 24 hours.
Berkeley and the rest of Alameda County
Dense, varied and old in places — pre-war bungalows and Victorians in the flats, mid-century tract in the south and east. Deferred maintenance and tenant-occupied properties are common here.
Berkeley is almost all pre-war — brown shingles, Victorians and 1920s bungalows — combined with some of the strongest tenant protections in the state. If your property is rented, the rules for ending a tenancy matter far more than the condition does, and we take that on rather than leaving it with you.
We buy directly with our own funds, so there is no lender to satisfy, no appraisal to fail and no chain of buyers who might change their mind. You pick the closing date and we work to it.
How it works
Selling a Berkeley house to us
Three steps, and the only one that takes any of your time is the first.
- 01
Tell us about the property
Fill in the address or parcel number and a few details — it takes about a minute. No obligation, no credit check, nothing to sign.
- 02
Get a real cash offer
We look at recent local sales and the condition of the property, then call you within 24 hours with a straight number and how we got to it.
- 03
Close on your date
Accept and pick a closing date — as fast as seven days, or months out if you need time. Title handles the paperwork. You get paid.
Berkeley sellers
The situations we hear most
-
Inherited a property
Probate, out-of-state, or a house full of a lifetime of belongings. We buy it as-is and handle the clear-out.
-
Facing foreclosure
A fast, certain close can stop the clock. We can often close before the auction date.
-
Tired of being a landlord
Non-paying tenants, endless repairs, midnight calls. We buy tenant-occupied properties.
-
Divorce or separation
A clean, quick sale with a date you both agree on — no showings, no drawn-out negotiation.
-
Major repairs needed
Foundation, roof, fire or water damage, code violations. You never lift a hammer.
-
Relocating for work
Pick your closing date so the sale lines up with your move instead of derailing it.
-
Downsizing
Moving to something smaller or into assisted living. Take what you want, leave the rest.
-
Vacant property
An empty house costs money every month in taxes, insurance and upkeep. Stop the bleed.
-
Land you are done holding
A vacant lot, an inherited parcel, acreage that was going to be built on one day. Taxes every year, no income, and a conventional buyer who cannot get it financed. We pay cash for land.
-
Behind on taxes or liens
We work with title to clear what is owed at closing so you walk away clean.
-
It just did not sell
Listed, sat, and expired. No financing to fall through and no appraisal to fail.

Questions
Common questions
How much will you pay for my house?
It depends on the condition, the location, and what comparable homes nearby have recently sold for. We are not the highest number you will ever hear — a fully renovated house listed for 60 days will usually fetch more on the open market. What we offer is certainty: a cash price with no fees, no repairs, no financing risk, and a closing date you choose. We walk you through exactly how we arrived at the number so you can compare it honestly against listing.
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. There is no agent commission, no listing fee, and we cover standard closing costs. The number we agree on is the number you receive at closing.
Do I need to clean or repair anything?
No. Take what you want to keep and leave the rest — furniture, appliances, anything in the garage. We handle the clear-out and every repair after closing.
How fast can you actually close?
As quickly as seven days once title is clear, because we pay cash and there is no lender underwriting the deal. If you need longer — to find your next place, to finish the school year — we will close on whatever date works for you.
Is the offer really no-obligation?
Yes. You can take the offer, sit on it, use it as a benchmark against an agent, or walk away. There is no cost and no pressure either way.
