Sell Your House for Cash in Three Easy Steps

Before you call a real estate agent, you owe it to yourself to explore other options for selling your house fast in City. Instead of going through a complicated process in a traditional sale, you can work directly with our team and skip the realtor. Our process is simple.

Step 1: Contact Us

When you are ready to sell your house, the first step is to call us and schedule a walkthrough of the house. It’s fast and easy, and there is no obligation to sell your house. Feel free to ask questions. We are here to help!

Step 2: Get a Cash Offer

We will assess your property and decide if we want to make an offer. If we like what we see, we will make a fair cash offer at just under the market value of your home. In most cases, we can make an offer within 24 to 48 hours.

Step 3: Close and Get Paid

If you accept our offer, the next step is to schedule a convenient closing date. Simply show up, sign the paperwork, and walk away with no strings attached. We pay most or all of the closing costs, which save you money.

Can You Still Sell With Liens Or Back Taxes?

Yes—you can. But you need a buyer capable of handling the complexity:

• Buyers can purchase homes with liens, then use sale proceeds to clear debts.
• If there’s enough equity, liens get paid at closing; if not, sellers may request lien discharge or negotiate with agencies .
• If foreclosure is looming, time is critical—working with an experienced investor like M1 can help avoid losing your home entirely.
