WHO WE HELP

We buy houses Portola Valley owners can trust

The simple version first. We buy houses Portola Valley owners want to sell as-is, without the repairs and the drawn-out timeline a listing usually asks for. We are a local team, the offer is fair and in writing, and you set the closing date. Nothing needs fixing beforehand, no commission comes off the top, and there are no showings to arrange. Take the offer and mull it over. It is good this month or later on, and there is no pressure from us at any point.

A local Bay Area buyer on the quiet side of the county

Portola Valley is a wooded, rural pocket of San Mateo County, with large lots and homes set back among the trees. Some of them sit near the San Andreas Fault, which can complicate a conventional sale, and we buy them anyway. Owners here often bought long ago and are now weighing steep appreciation against the cost of keeping an older place up. We buy across the range up to the $800K to $2M tier and beyond, and every written offer comes with no obligation to accept it.
