Three steps. No surprises. That's the whole process.

Start with the address — online or by phone, whichever you prefer. We'll ask a handful of simple questions: property type, roughly what condition it's in, whether anyone's living there, and when you'd ideally like to sell. There's nothing to prepare and nothing to clean up first.

This isn't a screening call with a lead service. Your information goes directly to Chad and stays with Highest Cash Buyer — it is never sold or passed to other investors.

Chad visits the property once, at a time that works for you — occupied or vacant, tidy or not. He's evaluating the same things he's priced across 200+ Tampa Bay purchases: roof, systems, structure, and what the rehab will realistically cost.

Then you get a written cash offer with the reasoning behind it. Not a range, not a teaser number that shrinks later — a real figure you can take to your family, your attorney, or a listing agent to compare. The offer is no-obligation, and it's subject to the standard things we state up front: inspection, title review, and a written purchase agreement.

If the number works, we open title with a local company and set a closing date around your situation. Most sellers close in as little as 7–14 days, but you choose the timeline — fast if you need speed, slower if you need time to move or settle an estate. Because it's a cash purchase, there's no lender approval, appraisal contingency, or financing that can collapse a week before closing.

You pay no commissions and no fees, and we cover the closing costs. At closing, the title company handles the paperwork and wires your proceeds. Take what you want from the house and leave the rest — the clean-out is our job.

Need the money before you can move? Ask about post-closing occupancy. In many situations, you can receive your funds at closing and remain in the home for up to 30 days afterward — so you can secure your next place with your proceeds in hand instead of moving twice.
