Phoenix houses we buy
Most of what we buy is block and slab ranches from the 1950s through the 1980s in Maryvale, South Phoenix, Sunnyslope and the older parts of central Phoenix, plus houses in Mesa, Glendale and Tempe. Desert heat is hard on houses: HVAC systems, foam and tile roofs, water heaters and pools wear out faster, and a buyer's inspector will find all of it.
Arizona details that affect a sale
Trustee sales give you about 90 days
Most Arizona foreclosures are non-judicial trustee sales. After the notice of trustee's sale is recorded, the sale can't happen for at least 90 days. That's your window to sell and keep your equity. More on selling to avoid foreclosure.
Beneficiary deeds and probate
Arizona lets owners record a beneficiary deed so the house passes outside probate. Without one, the estate goes through Maricopa County Superior Court. See selling an inherited house.
HOAs
Many Phoenix-area houses are in an HOA, and the association's disclosure documents and any unpaid dues have to be handled at closing. We work through that with the title company.
Why Phoenix owners sell to us
- An AC or roof replacement they don't want to fund
- Inherited houses with out-of-state heirs
- Pre-foreclosure
- Tired landlords (selling a house with tenants)
- Divorce (selling during a divorce)
How it works
If listing with an agent would net you more, for example because the house is updated and you have time, we'll say so.
Phoenix seller questions
Will you buy a house with a dead AC unit or a green pool?
Yes. We buy as-is and factor the repairs into the offer.
How long do I have after a notice of trustee's sale?
In Arizona the sale can't happen until at least 90 days after the notice is recorded. Selling before then can protect your equity.
Which areas do you buy in?
Phoenix and Maricopa County, including Mesa, Glendale, Tempe, Chandler, Peoria and Avondale.
How fast can you close?
When title is clear we can often close in 7 to 14 days through a local title company.
