Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sell our fixer-upper in Taft if my spouse disagrees?
Both parties on the title generally need to agree. However, a court order during divorce proceedings can compel a sale. We work with divorce attorneys to facilitate fair outcomes.
How is the cash offer split between spouses for the fixer-upper?
The division of sale proceeds is determined by your divorce agreement or court order — not by us. We provide a fair price, and your attorneys handle the split.
Can we sell the fixer-upper before the divorce is finalized in California?
Yes, in most cases. Selling before finalization can simplify the process. Both parties sign at closing, and proceeds can be held in escrow until the final agreement.
How much less will I get for a fixer-upper versus a renovated home in Taft?
Our offer reflects the property's current as-is value. However, when you factor in renovation costs, contractor timelines, carrying costs, and agent commissions avoided, the net difference is often much smaller than expected.
What counts as a fixer-upper for your buying criteria?
Any property needing repairs — from cosmetic updates to major structural work. Outdated kitchens, damaged roofs, foundation issues, fire damage — we buy it all.
Can I sell a fixer-upper that has been partially renovated?
Yes. Whether you started a renovation and ran out of budget, or the previous owner left work half-done, we buy properties in any state of renovation.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
