1. Who is Laurel Buys Houses?

For over 20 years we have been buying and renovating houses in the Greater Sacramento Area. Laurel Buys Houses isn’t your average Sacramento real estate company. We are not traditional realtors, which means: no fees, no commission and we can close on your timeline. As members of the community, we care about helping people find positive solutions so they can sell their home fast and stress-free. When you work with us, we come with an open mind, compassion, and understanding. It’s our promise to you.

2. Are you Buying Houses During Covid-19?

Yes! We are buying houses during this difficult time.  The good news is that our team is here to help, and you can still sell your home. We take your well-being very seriously and adhere to the guidance of local, state, and national officials. Here are a few options:
  • We are always available to communicate via a good, old fashioned phone call! Fill out our form or give us a call and we’ll be happy to help.
  • We are also available for a video chat at any time. If meeting in-person is not an option, we can do your quick home assessment via Zoom, Google, or Facetime.
  • Many documents can be signed remotely via Docusign, which allows us to limit most forms of contact.

3. How Are You Different From a Real Estate Agent?

Laurel Buys Houses:

  • Buys your property for cash.
  • Does not charge commission or fees. It’s 100% free.
  • Can close on your timeline — Days? Weeks? We can make it happen.
  • Buys your house AS-IS in any condition. Leave unwanted items, clutter, and needed repairs.

Real Estate Agent:

  • Does not buy your property.
  • Lists on the market in hopes that it will sell.
  • Can generally take 6-12 months to sell. This means you will not receive your payment for the home for at least half a year.
  • Charges commission. You will pay them a percentage of the final sales price, which is usually up to 6%.
  • Does not clean or repair your property.

Though agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months, it’s not always the best option for sellers.

3. How Are You Different From a Real Estate Agent?

We will always communicate with honesty, compassion and respect. After you fill out the form or call:

  • A member of our team will reach out to you about your house and then schedule an in-person appointment.
  • Laurel will meet you at your property and do a quick assessment  with you in the house.
  • Laurel will identify what repairs need to be done, how much houses in your neighborhood have sold for on the open market, and what it could sell for if completely remodeled.
  • She’ll answer any of your questions and finish with a free no obligation cash offer.

5. How Long Does The In-Person Appointment Take?

Laurel’s visit at your home typically lasts around 30-60 minutes. If meeting in-person is not an option, we can also do home assessments via Zoom, Google, or Facetime.

6. How Many People Will Be At The In-Person Appointment?

Laurel and the owner(s) of the property are typically the only people present. Your privacy is important to us and we will always be honest and open about what to expect.

7. How Are You Different From A Real Estate Agent?

Laurel Buys Houses:

  • Buys your property for cash.
  • Does not charge commission or fees. It’s 100% free.
  • Can close on your timeline — Days? Weeks? We can make it happen.
  • Buys your house AS-IS in any condition. Leave unwanted items, clutter, and needed repairs.

Real Estate Agent:

  • Does not buy your property.
  • Lists on the market in hopes that it will sell.
  • Can generally take 6-12 months to sell. This means you will not receive your payment for the home for at least half a year.
  • Charges commission. You will pay them a percentage of the final sales price, which is usually up to 6%.
  • Does not clean or repair your property.

Though agents provide a great service for those that can wait 6-12 months, it’s not always the best option for sellers.

8. What Does The Cash Offer Price Include?

We pay all of the closing costs, escrow fees, city and council transfer fees, and other miscellaneous fees. There are no hidden fees — we pay everything. Even if your home needs repairs, cleaning, or any other services, we will take care of it all. You will get a fair, fast cash offer with no deductions or extra costs.

9. Are There Any Fees Or Commissions When Working With You?

There are never any realtor fees or commission when you work with me. From first call to cash offer, it’s completely free. My goal is to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible for you.

10. What Is The Escrow Process? / How Long Does It Take?

“Escrow” is a term that describes the neutral third-party handling of funds, After you decide to sell your home and come to an agreement, you will enter into “escrow.”

Escrow is an arrangement between the buyer (Laurel) and seller (you) in which an independent non-biased professional company handles the funds, documents, and other special assets needed in order to make the sale final.

Escrow helps make for a safe transaction by protecting the assets (home, cash, documents) of the buyer and seller so that each fulfills their end of the selling agreement before the final transaction is made. The duration of the escrow process differs depending on each transaction and can typically be done in as little as two weeks, if everything is in order and all documents are present.

11. What Paperwork Do I Need?

You will not need any paperwork when you meet with us for your cash offer. If you decide to sell your home to us and we enter into an agreement, the escrow process (explained above) may require a few documents from you. We will communicate with you every step of the way and ensure you know what to expect.

12. When You Buy My House When Can I Close?

We work on your timeline. If you need to close in just days, we can do that! If you need to stay after the house closes to help with the transition, we can make that work! We understand that one size does not fit all and we’re open to working with you to choose the best possible closing date for your needs.

13. Do I need To Clean Before I Move Out?

You do not need to clean or make any repairs before moving out. Take whatever it is you want and leave the rest — we mean it! Food in the fridge, clothes on the floor, mattresses, desks, furniture… we’ve seen it all. Our goal is to make the transition as easy as possible for you and your family.

14. How Many Houses Do You Buy And What Will You Do With My House?

We have bought over 300 homes in the Sacramento Area. Flipping houses is our passion. We buy homes and then renovate them to sell again at a profit. With over 20 years as a professional, licensed contractor, Laurel loves using her creativity and architectural vision to bring new life to properties. In doing this, we are able to preserve the integrity of your house and provide it to the market so a new individual or family can call it home.

15. What Do You Do With Unwanted Items?

When we buy your home, we buy it AS-IS. This means that you can leave the cleaning and repairing to us — you can even leave unwanted items behind! We go through every unwanted item and set aside anything that can be given a second life. We then donate these items to various charities, veterans, church groups, and people in need. Leaving your unwanted items isn’t a burden. In many ways, it’s a blessing for someone in need.
“I found Laurel online and entered my info and she came out later that day and gave me an offer. Closing only took 10 days and I didnt have to worry about showing it with a realtor. I saved time and money!!”
Mark Thomas [Sacramento]
