    What to Expect When You Work With Us

    Complete transparency about our process, costs, and how we calculate offers.

    What happens after you request an offer?

    1. 1

      Within 1 hour: a team member calls or texts to confirm the address and answer questions

    2. 2

      Within 24 hours: You receive a written, no-obligation cash offer

    3. 3

      Your choice: Accept, negotiate, or walk away—no pressure

    4. 4

      If you accept: Pick your closing date. 7 days is possible with clean title; most sellers close in 2 to 3 weeks.

    What will you pay?

    You pay nothing for:

    • Real estate agent commissions
    • Closing costs or title fees
    • Repairs, cleaning, or staging
    • Inspections or appraisals

    You receive:

    • 100% of the agreed purchase price
    • Minus any existing mortgages or liens

    How do we calculate a cash offer?

    Our offers are based on a straightforward formula:

    After-Repair Value
    − Estimated repair costs
    − Our margin (covers holding, selling costs)
    = Your Cash Offer

    We use recent comparable sales in your area and get repair estimates from licensed contractors. We'll show you the numbers—nothing is hidden.

    Why is a cash offer below list price? Certainty has a price. A UC San Diego study found cash buyers pay about 10% less because roughly 1 in 10 financed sales fall through. In return you skip repairs, showings, commissions, and the risk a buyer's loan dies at week six. If the gap is bigger than that for your house, we'll say so and tell you to list.

    What makes an offer fair?

    A fair offer considers what you'd actually net after a traditional sale:

    • No 6% commission — keep $18,000+ on a $300k home

    • No repair costs — save $15,000-$50,000+

    • No holding costs — mortgage, taxes, insurance while waiting

    • No uncertainty — cash offer, no financing fall-through

    "I was 3 months behind on payments and the bank was threatening foreclosure. Tru Deal closed in 8 days and paid off my mortgage. I walked away with $12,000 cash instead of a foreclosure on my credit. They saved my financial life."

    Sarah J.

    San Jose, CA

    "I inherited my mom's house with $40,000 in needed repairs. Every agent said I had to fix it first. Tru Deal bought it as-is for a fair price and closed in 2 weeks. Saved me months of headaches and contractor nightmares."

    Michael P.

    Sacramento, CA

    "Divorce. Bad tenants. Couldn't afford both the mortgage and my new apartment. Tru Deal made an offer in 24 hours and I had cash 10 days later. Finally got my life back on track."

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Clear answers to help you make an informed decision

    We evaluate your property based on its current condition, location, recent comparable sales, and repair costs. Our goal is to provide a fair cash offer that works for both parties. We're transparent about our process and happy to explain our pricing.

    No, we don't list your house. We buy it directly from you with cash. This means no real estate agents, no commissions, no waiting for buyer financing to fall through, and no showings.

    Absolutely not. We buy houses in any condition—trash, repairs, code violations, and all. You can leave unwanted items behind. We handle everything after closing.

    No problem! We can buy your property with tenants in place. We'll work with you to find the best solution for your situation, whether that means waiting until they move out or buying it occupied.

    7 days when title is clean and you need it. Most sellers pick 2 to 3 weeks. You set the date; escrow and title can add time we don't control.

    Zero fees, zero commissions. We pay all closing costs. The offer we give you is the amount you'll receive at closing (minus any liens or mortgages on the property).

    No. Take it to an agent or another buyer and compare. If you're in foreclosure, California law also gives you 5 business days to cancel after signing.

    We buy houses throughout Northern California. We cover the Bay Area (San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Fremont, Palo Alto), Sacramento region (Sacramento, Elk Grove, Roseville, Folsom), Central Valley, Yuba County, and the Redding/Chico area. If you're anywhere in Northern California and need to sell, reach out—we can help.

    One number tells you what to do next.

    Your Walk-Away Number is what you'd pocket on every path out of this house. You'll have it in writing within 24 hours. No obligation to pick us, or anyone.
