The number we send is the number that closes.
No retrades. No "we found a thing" emails the week of closing. What you sign on the offer is what wires to your account at the title office.
We're not an algorithm. We're not a franchise out of Florida. We're a family that's been buying houses around Sacramento and the Bay for twenty-five years, one address at a time.
How this started
In 2000, our founder helped an older neighbor sell a house she'd inherited. The roof was leaking, the kitchen was forty years out of date, and she didn't have the money — or the patience — to spend three months getting it list-ready. Realtors wanted repairs first. Investor groups quoted numbers she said felt insulting.
He sat down at her kitchen table, did the math out loud, wrote her a fair check, and took the house off her hands the next week. She moved in with her daughter. He kept the roof from collapsing, renovated the place himself, and resold it the following spring. Both walked away square.
Twenty-five years and 300-plus Northern California closings later, the playbook hasn't changed: show our work, pay what we promise, close on the seller's schedule.
How we work
Same on the first deal, same on the three-hundredth. No fine print, no asterisks.
No retrades. No "we found a thing" emails the week of closing. What you sign on the offer is what wires to your account at the title office.
Offer = After-Repair Value − Repair Cost − margin. You see the comp sheet, the repair line items, and the margin in writing. No black box, no "trust us."
Seven days if you're under pressure. Ninety days if you need to line up your next place. Want a few extra weeks in the house after closing? We'll write a rent-back. You pick.
If our number isn't the right one for you, that's fine. We won't text you on a Saturday or try to talk you out of going with someone else.
Furniture, appliances, working tools — everything usable gets donated locally. Veterans groups, family shelters, Habitat ReStore. Not the dumpster.
Recent closings
Different streets, different reasons, same outcome.
"My dad's place in Citrus Heights had been empty almost a year. I live in Denver and didn't want to fly out three times to coordinate with a realtor. Redwood handled the whole thing remotely — DocuSign, wire, done in 18 days."
"We needed a fast, clean split. Listing would have taken months and we couldn't agree on a price anyway. They walked the house once, handed us a number that day, and we wired the equity to two separate accounts at close."
"I was embarrassed to let anyone see the inside. They came out anyway, didn't say a word about the condition, and bought it as it was. I didn't have to clean a single thing. That alone was worth it."
