Frequently Asked Questions About Selling to Us
The questions below come up in almost every conversation with Henderson owners. They are grouped by the things people worry about most: what it costs, whether they can trust the buyer, and how much disruption a sale will cause.
What it costs you
Fees and commissions
A direct sale has no listing commission and no repair bill, and we do not charge a service fee for making an offer. You still owe what you already owe: a mortgage payoff, past-due association balances or unpaid taxes, all settled through escrow. Closing costs are listed in the purchase agreement before you sign, so nothing appears for the first time at the closing table. Our page on how escrow and title work in a Henderson direct sale walks through those payoffs.

Whether you can trust the buyer
Checking us out
Ask for the title company's name, call the escrow officer yourself, and read the purchase agreement before signing. A legitimate buyer welcomes all three. Be wary of any buyer who wants a payment from you up front, pushes you to sign the same day or will not name the title company. Real deposits move from the buyer into escrow, never from the seller to the buyer. The principles we follow with Henderson sellers explain what we will and will not do.

Fill this in and a local person looks at your address, your neighborhood and what you tell us about the house. We'll call with questions, then walk through it with you before putting a number in writing.

How much disruption to expect

Tenants and occupants
We can buy a home with tenants in place and honor existing leases. Landlords can find more on our page about selling an occupied Henderson rental.
Belongings and repairs
Keep whatever you want from the Henderson house, leave everything else, and we handle removal after closing. If sorting a lifetime of belongings needs extra weeks, the closing date can reflect that. Repairs are never a condition of our offer, which is why owners of Henderson houses with worn roofs, pools or systems often call us first.
Association balances and liens
Dues, fines and recorded liens
Escrow requests a statement from the association and pays what is owed from your proceeds. Recorded liens from lenders, contractors or creditors are handled the same way. If an association dispute is the reason you are selling, our page on selling through HOA fines and violation letters covers it, and owners behind on payments can read options for Henderson owners who have fallen behind. Still have a question? Send it through our Henderson seller contact form.
Henderson Sellers Ask
Do I pay any fees or commissions when I sell to you?
There is no listing commission on a direct sale, and we do not charge a service fee. Closing costs are set out in the purchase agreement so you can see who pays what before signing. You remain responsible for amounts already owed on the property, such as a mortgage payoff or past-due association dues, which are paid from your proceeds at closing.
What happens to unpaid HOA dues and fines at closing?
Escrow requests a statement from the association, and sometimes from both a master association and a sub-association, showing what is owed. Those amounts are generally paid from the seller's proceeds at closing. Nevada law treats dues and fines differently in some respects, so if you dispute a fine, raise it with the association early. We do not give legal advice on those disputes.
Can you buy a house that has a lien on it?
Often, yes. Mortgages, home equity lines, association liens, mechanic's liens and many judgment liens can be paid off through escrow from the sale proceeds. The title search identifies what is recorded, and the title company requests payoff figures. If the liens add up to more than the house is worth, the situation is harder, and we will be candid about whether a sale can work.
Can I sell if the house has tenants?
Yes. We buy rentals with tenants in place and can take over existing leases and deposits as part of the sale. Nevada has notice rules for entry and for ending tenancies, and a lease can limit what changes are possible. We plan the walk-through around proper notice and never ask a landlord to pressure tenants to leave before closing.
What do I do with everything in the house?
Pack up whatever you want to keep from your Henderson house; everything else can stay. Furniture, garage contents, old paint and yard equipment can all stay behind, and we handle removal after closing. If you need more time to sort through belongings, especially after a family member has passed, we can set a later closing date so nobody has to rush through decades of memories.
Do I need to make repairs before you buy?
No. We buy as-is. Roof leaks, cracked stucco, a pool that has turned green, an air conditioner on its last legs or water damage from a failed heater are all things we account for in the offer. Spending money on repairs before a direct sale usually does not come back to you, so we recommend holding off unless something is unsafe.
How quickly can you close?
The timeline depends mostly on the title search, the association resale package and any payoffs that need to be ordered. Some sales close in a few weeks; others take longer because of estate paperwork or liens. We will not commit to an exact count of days up front. We can commit to this: you set the target date, and we plan the Henderson sale around it.
Can I choose a later closing date?
Yes. Many sellers want to wait until they have found their next home, until a school term ends, or until relatives can travel to help. We can set a closing date further out and write it into the purchase agreement. If your plans change after signing, let us know early, and together with the title company we will try to adjust the date.
How do I verify that you are a legitimate buyer?
Ask for the purchase agreement in writing and read it fully before signing. Ask which licensed Nevada title company will handle escrow and contact the escrow officer independently. Never wire money to a buyer, and before acting on any wiring instructions, phone the title company yourself using a number you found independently. A legitimate buyer will be comfortable with every one of these checks.
Will you ask me for money up front?
No. A seller should never pay a buyer to make an offer or to start a sale. Any deposit in a real estate purchase goes from the buyer into escrow, not from the seller to the buyer. If anyone claiming to buy your house asks you for an application fee, an inspection fee or a deposit, treat it as a warning sign.
What if my Henderson house is worth less than my loan balance?
That makes a direct sale harder but not always impossible. In some cases the lender may agree to accept less than the full payoff, which is a process that takes time and approval from the lender. We will look at the numbers honestly and tell you if we do not see a workable path. For legal or credit questions, a Nevada attorney or HUD-approved housing counselor can help.
Does the HOA have to approve the sale?
Associations generally do not approve or block an ordinary sale, but they do provide the resale package, collect amounts owed and may have rules about transfer fees or move-out procedures. Some gated communities require advance notice for moving trucks. We review the documents and coordinate with the management company so these requirements do not catch you by surprise.
Do you buy homes in poor condition or with code issues?
Yes. We buy houses with deferred maintenance, unpermitted additions, garage conversions, fire or water damage and open violations. Code or permit issues with the City of Henderson can affect the offer because we will need to resolve them, but they do not automatically rule out a sale. Tell us what you know and we will factor it in.
Is my information shared with anyone?
We use what you send us to evaluate the property and contact you about it. We do not sell your information. When you go under contract, we share necessary details with the title and escrow company so they can handle the closing. Our privacy policy describes this in more detail, including how to opt out of text messages.
What if I change my mind after getting an offer?
That is completely fine. An offer is not a contract. Until both parties sign a written purchase agreement, you are free to walk away, hire a listing agent, rent the house out or simply stay put. Once an agreement is signed, its terms govern what happens next, which is why we encourage you to read it carefully first.
Can I sell a house I inherited before probate is finished?
It depends on how the property passed to you and what the court or trust documents allow. Some homes can be sold soon after the right documents are in place, while others must wait for the court. The title company will tell us what it needs to insure the sale. To confirm your options, speak with a Nevada probate attorney.
