Selling Your House Can Be A Quick And Simple Process
TBK Buys Houses buys houses in and around Atlanta (and other areas too!). We’re not listing your house… we’re actually the ones buying your house. Because we pay cash, we’re able to close quickly… or on your schedule. Like we’ve mentioned, when you work with us there are no fees… like there are when you list your house with an agent. What this means to you is you don’t have to worry about extra costs, having to come out of pocket to sell your house fast, or even getting your house ready for a sale (we’ll buy your house as-is).
Don’t worry about repairing or cleaning up your property. We’ll buy your house in as-is condition… no matter how ugly or pretty it is… no matter the location.
Selling a house can feel like one more full-time job. You may have repairs to plan, rooms to clear out, buyers to accommodate, and a mortgage payment to make while you wait. At TBK Buys Houses, we give Atlanta-area homeowners another option: sell the property directly, in its current condition, on terms you can review before making a decision.
Here is what happens after you reach out, what information helps us make an offer, and what you can expect before closing.
1. Tell Us About the Property
Start by sharing the address, your contact information, and a few details about the home. It helps to know whether the property is occupied, what repairs it may need, and when you would like to sell. You do not need professional photos, a completed renovation, or a perfect house to contact us.
If you have a deadline, such as a relocation, probate matter, or scheduled foreclosure sale, let us know early. We can discuss whether a purchase timeline is realistic. Requesting an offer does not stop a foreclosure or create an obligation to sell.
2. We Review the House and Your Goals
We may ask follow-up questions and arrange a convenient time to see the property. We consider its location, condition, needed work, and the costs involved in purchasing and improving it. We will also ask what matters most to you: your desired closing date, how much preparation you can reasonably do, and any special circumstances involving the property.
You can tell us about major repairs without fixing them first. If there are tenants, belongings, or title issues, share those details so we can discuss them in the offer rather than surprise you later.
3. Review a Written, No-Obligation Offer
If the property fits our buying criteria, we will present a written offer. Review the purchase price, closing date, any contingencies, and who pays which transaction costs. Ask as many questions as you need. You decide whether the offer works for you. There is no obligation to accept it.
A cash offer may be lower than the price a fully prepared home could bring on the open market. That difference reflects the property’s condition, repairs, resale costs, and the convenience of a direct sale. If maximizing the gross sale price is your main priority and you have time to prepare and show the property, listing with an agent may be worth comparing. See our side-by-side comparison of selling directly and listing with an agent.
4. Choose a Closing Date and Complete the Sale
If you accept the offer, the closing professional will review title, obtain payoff information, prepare the documents, and calculate the final proceeds. We can discuss a date that fits your plans, subject to the contract, title, lender payoff information, and other closing requirements. You receive the amount due to you after the applicable mortgage balance, liens, taxes, and agreed expenses are handled at closing.
Because our purchase does not depend on a traditional buyer’s mortgage approval, we can often avoid that part of the waiting process. Closing is complete only when the documents are signed and funds are disbursed.
What Does “Sell As-Is” Mean?
An as-is offer means we evaluate the home in the condition it is in today. You can ask us about a house with an old roof, dated kitchen, unfinished work, water damage, or a long list of smaller repairs. You do not need to spend money on a renovation just to find out whether we would buy it.
It also means the property’s condition is reflected in the offer. Be upfront about what you know, and read the written agreement so you understand any access, inspection, or property-delivery terms. If you need to leave items behind, discuss that before signing; do not assume every item can remain.
What Types of Situations Can We Consider?
Homeowners contact us for many reasons. Some want to sell a house they inherited. Others are relocating, managing a vacant property, dealing with costly repairs, or ready to move on from a rental. We can also discuss a home with tenants, although leases and occupancy must be reviewed. You do not need to have everything figured out before you call. Tell us what is happening and what outcome you are hoping for.
If you are behind on mortgage payments, contact your mortgage servicer as soon as possible to understand your options. If a foreclosure sale has been scheduled, confirm the date and get legal or housing counseling help promptly. A purchase offer or signed contract by itself does not postpone the sale.
Questions About Our Home-Buying Process
Do I pay an agent commission to sell directly to TBK Buys Houses?
We are buying the house directly, so we do not charge you a brokerage commission for that direct purchase. Your final proceeds still depend on mortgage payoff amounts, liens, taxes, and the expenses stated in the agreement and closing statement.
Do I need to hold open houses or schedule multiple showings?
No open houses are needed for a direct sale to us. We may need to visit the property to evaluate its condition, and any access arrangements will be discussed with you.
How soon will I receive an offer?
We can discuss the next steps after receiving your property details. The time needed to make an offer depends on the information available and whether we need to see the house. We will give you a realistic expectation for your property rather than promise the same timeline for every home.
Can I choose when to close?
Tell us the date you need. We can propose a closing schedule around your plans when the contract terms, title work, payoff information, and closing professional allow it. A written agreement will state the agreed date.
What if I am also considering listing the property?
That is a sensible comparison. Ask an agent for an estimated sale price and seller net sheet, then compare it with our written offer. Consider repairs, commissions, concessions, carrying costs, time, and the amount you would keep after paying property debts.
