How it works
From first call to cash in hand, here is exactly what to expect when you sell to us.
How it works
Three simple steps from first call to cash in hand.
Tell us about your house
Fill out the short form or give us a call. We just need the address and a few basic details. No showings, no cleaning, no prep work.
Get a fair cash offer
We look at your home and recent local sales, then bring you a fair, no-obligation cash offer. Usually within 24 hours. You are never pressured to accept.
Close on your timeline
Pick the closing date that works for you, whether that is seven days or seven weeks out. We handle the paperwork and you walk away with cash in hand.
Selling to us vs. listing with an agent
See the difference side by side, then decide what is right for you.
| Vol Home Buyers | Listing with an agent | |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions / fees | None, zero | 6% on average, paid by you |
| Repairs before selling | None, we buy as-is | Often required out of pocket |
| Cleaning & prep | None | Deep clean and staging |
| Showings | None | Multiple, on buyers' schedules |
| Closing timeline | As little as 7 days | 30 to 60+ days, if it sells |
| Closing date | You pick it | Depends on the buyer |
| Risk of deal falling through | None, cash in hand | Common with financed buyers |
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to what homeowners ask us most.
How fast can you make an offer?
In most cases we can get you a fair cash offer within 24 hours of hearing about your property. Once you accept, we can close in as little as seven days.
Do I have to pay any fees or commissions?
No. There are no agent commissions, no listing fees, and no closing costs charged to you. The offer we make is the cash you walk away with.
Do I need to make repairs or clean the house?
Never. We buy houses completely as-is. Leave behind anything you do not want, skip the repairs, and do not worry about cleaning. We handle it all.
What kinds of houses do you buy?
Just about any house in Knoxville and across East Tennessee. Inherited homes, rentals with tough tenants, houses needing major repairs, homes facing foreclosure, and more. If you own it, we will look at it.
Is the offer really no-obligation?
Yes. We will give you a fair cash offer and the decision is entirely yours. There is no pressure and no cost to find out what we can offer.
How do you decide what to offer?
We look at the condition of your home, the cost of any repairs needed, and what comparable homes nearby have recently sold for. Then we make a fair offer that works for both sides.
