Frequently Asked Questions
What is a short sale for a apartment building in Petaluma?
A short sale occurs when the lender agrees to accept less than the full mortgage balance. This happens when the property value has dropped below what you owe. We handle all lender negotiations.
Will a short sale on my apartment building affect my credit?
A short sale typically impacts your credit less than a foreclosure — usually 50-100 points versus 200+ for foreclosure. Most homeowners can qualify for a new mortgage within 2-3 years.
How long does a short sale take for a apartment building in California?
Lender approval typically takes 30-90 days. Once approved, we can close within 7-14 days. We manage all communication with your lender throughout the process.
Do you buy apartment buildings with existing tenants in Petaluma?
Yes. We purchase apartment buildings fully occupied, partially occupied, or vacant. We honor all existing leases and handle tenant communication after closing.
How do you value an apartment building?
We use income-based valuation (cap rate and NOI) alongside comparable sales. Current occupancy, rental rates, operating expenses, and condition all factor into our offer.
What if my apartment building has deferred maintenance?
Deferred maintenance is common and expected. We buy buildings as-is — roof issues, plumbing, electrical, cosmetic problems — none of these prevent us from making an offer.
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.”
