#5: Asked to Sell house in as is condition in {CITY, Florida}
- This Seller reached out to us wanting to sell the house in as is condition as it was at one time a rental property that the tenants trashed the place. The Seller had left it untouched (in mucher rougher than livable condition and not safe) for about 2 years and finally decided it was time to get something for the home rather than let it continue to sit.

#4: Needed to sell house in bad condition In {CITY, Florida}
- This home wasn’t the worst house we’ve ever purchased but it was definitely up there. The Seller had bad tenants who trashed the house – putting holes in the wall, destroying the bathrooms and plumbing. After the eviction the Seller tried to do the remodel himself and tore out the kitchen and then the contractor he paid $15,000 stopped showing up and answering the Seller’s calls. After this experience, coupled with the tenants trashing the house the Seller just wanted the house gone and cash in his pocket. So we stepped in made a cash offer as is and closed about 25 days later.

#3: This {CITY} house was falling apart (We Paid Cash)
- This one was competing for #1 but believe it or not there were 2 homes that were in even more disrepair than this one. When we say the house was falling apart, we quite literally mean falling apart as there were cracks in the exterior foundation of the home that needed to be repaired before even touching the interior. While securing the foundation of the home is costly and not every buyer is willing to purchase a home like that, we purchased this home cash, in less than 30 days.

#2: Wanted to Sell: Couldn’t afford to keep this {CITY, Florida} house anymore
- This one was pretty bad as well, there was a fire that broke out in the house and not just a small fire it consumed about 85% of the house. The Seller thankfully was ok and was not harmed from the fire but we can’t say the same about the house. Just look at the photos, it’s no wonder the Seller reached out to us to sell it.

We delivered on our deal and it ended up working out for us, as just recently we resold the home in September for a nice profit.
