Frequently Asked Questions About Selling As-Is

There is no agent commission and no fee to request an offer or have us walk the property. Ordinary closing items, such as escrow charges or lien payoffs, are handled by the title and escrow company and shown on a settlement statement. We explain who pays which items before you sign anything, so the figures at closing match what we discussed.

Generally, no. Nevada's disclosure law for residential property usually requires the seller to describe known defects on a written form, and an as-is clause by itself typically does not remove that duty. Certain transfers, like some estate or foreclosure sales, are handled differently. We are not lawyers; confirm your situation with a Nevada real estate attorney.

Disclosure is based on what you actually know. If you inherited the house or rarely visited it, it is fine to say you are unaware of certain conditions rather than guess. Be honest about anything you do know, including past leaks, fires, or repairs. A Nevada attorney can help you complete the form correctly for your circumstances.

Often you can, but talk with your insurer and mortgage lender first. Depending on your policy and loan, claim payments may go to you, your lender, or toward repairs, and a sale could affect that. We are not insurance advisors. Once you know how your claim will be handled, we can set a closing date that leaves room to finish it.

We will consider it. A red tag or unsafe-structure notice usually limits who can enter and may require permits or approvals before work. It does not automatically prevent a sale. We may need to evaluate from outside, from reports, or with permission from the agency involved. Check with the city or county office that issued the notice about what is allowed.

Yes. Mold from slab leaks, roof leaks, or burst pipes is one of the most common conditions we see. You do not need to test for it or remediate before selling. We factor likely remediation into our offer. If you already have a mold report or remediation estimate, share it, since it helps us understand the extent faster.

Yes. Take anything you want to keep, including documents, photos, and items with family value, and leave the rest. Removal and disposal are on us after closing. If the house is heavily packed, we suggest walking through it with a family member first so nothing important is lost before the clean-out begins.

We can buy a house with tenants in place. Existing leases and Nevada landlord-tenant rules still apply, so tenants are not simply asked to leave at closing. Let us know about any lease, deposit, or unpaid rent up front so it can be addressed in the purchase agreement. A Nevada attorney can advise you on notice requirements.

Contact law enforcement and, if needed, a Nevada attorney. Nevada has a specific process for unlawful occupants, and removal is a matter for the courts and police, not a buyer. We can still discuss buying the house, and we will explain how occupancy affects timing and price. Do not try to force anyone out yourself.

Usually. Mortgage balances, HOA amounts, tax liens, and contractor or municipal liens are common on distressed houses. The title company identifies them and requests payoff figures, and most are paid from sale proceeds at closing. If total liens exceed what the house can support, we will tell you early and talk through options.

No. Many of the houses we buy have no power, water, or gas. We can often evaluate the property in daylight without utilities. If we need to test something, we will discuss whether a temporary reconnection makes sense. You do not need to restore service or pay overdue utility balances just so we can make an offer.

The closing date is set by you. Since our offer is cash, no mortgage approval holds things up. The main timing factors are title work, lien payoffs, probate or estate steps if they apply, and your own moving plans. We cannot guarantee a set count of days on a problem house, but we aim for your preferred date and flag delays as soon as we see them.

We can work with personal representatives and heirs. Who can sign and when depends on the estate's status and any court orders, so speak with the estate's attorney about authority to sell. Some estate sales are treated differently under Nevada's disclosure law. We can set a closing date that fits the estate timeline.

Yes. Garage conversions, patio enclosures, and other work done without permits are common. So are open code enforcement cases with the city or county. We factor the cost of permitting, correction, or removal into our offer, and you do not need to fix anything before selling. Gather any notices you have received so we can review them.

Ask for a written purchase agreement, insist on a neutral licensed title and escrow company you can contact independently, and never send money upfront to a buyer. Look up the company with the Nevada Secretary of State, and have an attorney review the contract if anything is unclear. A legitimate buyer will welcome these steps.

No. Requesting an offer and having us walk the property does not commit you to anything. You are free to compare our number with listing, selling to someone else, or keeping the house. Nothing is binding until you sign a purchase agreement, and we encourage you to read it carefully or have an attorney review it.
