Sell My House As Is, No Repairs

To sell your house as is means the buyer takes it in its current condition. You do not paint, patch, replace the roof or haul away what is left inside. Some buyers are set up for exactly that.

What as is does and does not mean

It means you are not agreeing to fix things before closing. It does not mean you can hide known problems. Rules about what you must disclose differ by state, so ask a title company or attorney what applies where you live.

Being upfront also helps the match. A buyer who knows about the foundation crack or the leaking roof before they call can make a realistic offer instead of backing out later.

Who benefits most

Landlords with a rough rental, owners of a property with deferred maintenance, heirs with a house full of belongings and anyone who simply cannot afford the repairs fall into this group. For them, fixing the house first would cost time and cash they do not have.

The tradeoff is price. A buyer who takes on the repairs will account for them in the offer.

Describe it honestly

On the form, list what you know: age of the roof, any water damage, problems with the furnace or plumbing, anything about the structure. You do not need exact details. A short, honest description is enough to start.

Getting matched

We refer your details to a buyer or other professional who may contact you. We do not inspect the house or buy it. You are free to compare offers and walk away from any of them.
