How We Help

Inherited a House in Iowa You Don't Want?

Inheriting a house can feel like inheriting a second job. Maybe it's full of a lifetime of belongings, maybe it needs work, maybe it's hours away or in another state entirely. Keeping up with taxes, insurance, and upkeep on a home you never planned to own is a real burden. Selling it for cash lets you turn the property into money and be done with it.

We buy inherited houses all over Des Moines and across Iowa, as-is, in any condition, full of stuff or empty. Take what you want and leave the rest; we handle the cleanout. Out-of-state heirs can sign remotely, and if the estate isn't ready to close yet, we can wait until it is. No repairs, no cleaning, no agent fees.

  • We buy as-is, take what you want and leave the rest, we handle the cleanout
  • Out-of-state heirs can sign remotely, no need to travel to Iowa
  • Stop paying taxes, insurance, and upkeep on a house you don't want
  • We can wait to close until the estate is ready

Common Questions

Inherited House FAQ

The house is full of furniture and belongings, do I have to clear it out?

No. Take whatever you want to keep and leave the rest. We buy as-is and handle the cleanout for you.

I live out of state. Can I still sell?

Yes. We work with out-of-state heirs all the time. The paperwork can be signed remotely, so you don't need to travel back to Iowa.

The estate isn't fully settled yet, is it too soon?

It's never too soon to get a cash offer in hand. We can lock in terms now and simply wait to close once the estate is ready.

There are several heirs. Does that complicate things?

Not for us. As long as the people who own the property agree to sell, we keep the process simple and the title company handles the disbursement.

How fast can you close?

Once the estate is ready, usually 7 to 15 days. We close through a local Iowa title company that handles all the paperwork.

What does it cost me?

Nothing. There are no agent commissions or fees, and we cover the standard closing costs and the cleanout.
