Cash home & land buyers · CA & NV
Houses and land, in any condition, bought with our own funds — or kept and managed for you, if selling is not what you actually want. Tell us the situation and we will tell you straight which of those suits you, including when the answer is none of them.
What we do
Most companies in this trade do one of these and pretend the other two do not exist. Doing all three is what lets us say “sell it” to one owner and “keep it” to the next without either answer costing us anything.
You own a house and you want it sold
The straightforward one. Any condition — including the ones an agent would tell you to fix first — bought with our own funds, closing on your date.
You own land that is going nowhere
A vacant lot, an inherited parcel, acreage that was going to be built on one day. No income, a tax bill every year, and buyers who cannot get it financed.
You want to keep the property and stop running it
For the owner who does not actually want to sell — they want to stop being on call. We run the tenancy end to end and you keep the property and the upside.
The trade door. A published fix and flip buy box and a same-day answer if you are bringing a deal; an off-market buyers list if you are looking for one.
If you are selling
No listing, no showings, no repairs, and no chain of buyers who might change their mind.
Fill in the address or parcel number and a few details — it takes about a minute. No obligation, no credit check, nothing to sign.
We look at recent local sales and the condition of the property, then call you within 24 hours with a straight number and how we got to it.
Accept and pick a closing date — as fast as seven days, or months out if you need time. Title handles the paperwork. You get paid.
Why sellers call us
Some are, and that's fine too — we've handled all of these before and none of it fazes us.
Probate, out-of-state, or a house full of a lifetime of belongings. We buy it as-is and handle the clear-out.
A fast, certain close can stop the clock. We can often close before the auction date.
Non-paying tenants, endless repairs, midnight calls. We buy tenant-occupied properties.
A clean, quick sale with a date you both agree on — no showings, no drawn-out negotiation.
Foundation, roof, fire or water damage, code violations. You never lift a hammer.
Pick your closing date so the sale lines up with your move instead of derailing it.
Moving to something smaller or into assisted living. Take what you want, leave the rest.
An empty house costs money every month in taxes, insurance and upkeep. Stop the bleed.
A vacant lot, an inherited parcel, acreage that was going to be built on one day. Taxes every year, no income, and a conventional buyer who cannot get it financed. We pay cash for land.
We work with title to clear what is owed at closing so you walk away clean.
Listed, sat, and expired. No financing to fall through and no appraisal to fail.
The honest comparison
Including the row most cash buyers leave off.
| Selling to Hinge Properties | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions & fees | None | Typically 5–6% of the sale price |
| Closing costs | We cover standard costs | 1–3%, usually paid by you |
| Repairs before sale | None — we buy as-is | Often required by the buyer or inspector |
| Cleaning & staging | Leave it as it stands | Expected, sometimes at your cost |
| Showings & open houses | None | Ongoing, on the buyer’s schedule |
| Financing falling through | Never — we pay cash | A common cause of collapsed deals |
| Appraisal required | No | Yes, and a low appraisal can kill the sale |
| Time to close | As little as 7 days | Commonly 45–90 days |
| Who picks the closing date | You do | Negotiated with the buyer |
| Headline sale price | Below full retail — that is the trade for speed and certainty | Usually higher, before fees, repairs and holding costs |
Figures are typical ranges for the market, not guarantees — your own costs will vary. Listing with an agent is genuinely the better choice for plenty of sellers, and if that is you after seeing our number, we will tell you so.
Questions
It depends on the condition, the location, and what comparable homes nearby have recently sold for. We are not the highest number you will ever hear — a fully renovated house listed for 60 days will usually fetch more on the open market. What we offer is certainty: a cash price with no fees, no repairs, no financing risk, and a closing date you choose. We walk you through exactly how we arrived at the number so you can compare it honestly against listing.
No. There is no agent commission, no listing fee, and we cover standard closing costs. The number we agree on is the number you receive at closing.
No. Take what you want to keep and leave the rest — furniture, appliances, anything in the garage. We handle the clear-out and every repair after closing.
As quickly as seven days once title is clear, because we pay cash and there is no lender underwriting the deal. If you need longer — to find your next place, to finish the school year — we will close on whatever date works for you.
Yes. You can take the offer, sit on it, use it as a benchmark against an agent, or walk away. There is no cost and no pressure either way.
Single-family homes, condos, townhouses, duplexes and small multi-family — occupied, vacant, tenant-occupied, or mid-renovation. We also buy land: vacant residential lots, infill parcels and property on acreage, including the ones a conventional lender will not touch. We are based in the East Bay and buy across six Northern California counties, and we also buy in Nevada and Southern California. The full buy box, including what we pass on, is on the investors page.
