Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sell a house with foundation damage in NC?
Yes. You are required to disclose known foundation issues in North Carolina, but you are not required to repair them before selling. We buy as-is with full knowledge of the condition.
What types of foundation problems do you buy?
All types. Settling, cracking, bowing walls, pier and beam issues, slab cracks, water intrusion through the foundation, and structural shifting. We have seen and purchased them all.
Do I need a structural engineer report to sell?
No. We conduct our own evaluation and do not require you to pay for an engineering report before selling. That said, if you already have one, we are happy to review it.
How much do foundation problems reduce my home's value?
The discount depends on the severity and type of foundation issue. Our offer factors in estimated repair costs, but you avoid paying for those repairs yourself — plus months of disruption during construction.
Will a traditional buyer purchase a house with foundation issues?
Very rarely. Most lenders will not approve a mortgage on a home with known structural deficiencies. FHA and VA loans have strict requirements. Cash buyers like EasyOffer are typically the only viable option.
What causes foundation problems in Fayetteville?
Common causes include expansive clay soil, poor drainage, plumbing leaks under the slab, tree roots, and improper original construction. The cause affects the repair approach but not our willingness to buy.
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.”
