WHO WE HELP

Marin County Sellers: Every Community, Every Situation, One Buyer

Marin County’s housing market is among the most distinctive in California – aging homeowners who’ve held redwood-surrounded properties for decades, significant inherited wealth in estate-heavy communities like Mill Valley and Ross, and a steady flow of heirs managing Marin properties from other parts of the state. Marin’s strict zoning and limited housing supply make the traditional listing process competitive for sellers in good position – but for sellers dealing with an estate, an older home needing work, or a desire for a discreet transaction, we offer a direct path. We buy homes across every Marin community, in cash, as-is.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you buy across all of Marin County – south Marin, Central Marin, and North Marin? +
Yes. From Sausalito and Mill Valley in the south to Novato in the north, we buy across every Marin community.
My parent's Marin home is going through Marin County probate. Can you make an offer during the process? +
Yes. We offer during probate and structure close to align with court confirmation or wait until probate clears.
The Marin property is in a fire risk zone with outstanding brush clearance items. Does that affect your ability to close? +
Brush clearance and fire-defensible-space items transfer to us at close. They’re factored into our offer, not your responsibility before selling.
What's the fastest you can close on a Marin property? +
As few as 7 days if title is clean and you’re ready to proceed. If you need more time, we accommodate your calendar.
How fast can I sell my house in Marin County? +
We can close in as little as 7 days in Marin County. Once you accept our written cash offer, we handle all title and paperwork – you pick the closing date.
Do I need to make repairs before selling? +
No. We buy as-is – any condition, any age, any amount of deferred maintenance. Nothing needs to be fixed, cleaned, or updated before we close.
Are there commissions or fees? +
None. No agent commissions, no fees charged to you, no deductions at close. The number in your offer is what you receive.
