Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about direct property purchases, written terms, timing, and costs. Don't see your question? Call or text our team.
How fast can you close on my house?
Closing timing is property- and transaction-specific. It depends on title, access, seller readiness, agreement terms, and state requirements; any available timeline is stated in writing.
Do I need to make any repairs before selling?
Not for the direct as-is purchase option. Any agreement about cleanup, personal property, or items left behind will be documented in the written purchase contract.
Are there any fees or commissions?
Equity Path Offers does not charge an agent commission when it purchases directly. Mortgage payoffs, liens, taxes, and any transaction costs or credits are disclosed in the written agreement and closing statement.
How do you evaluate a possible direct acquisition?
We review recent comparable sales, property condition, estimated repair and transaction costs, and current market conditions. Any offer and its assumptions are presented in writing after the property review.
What if I owe more than my house is worth?
There may be options, but any short sale requires lender approval and the seller's circumstances matter. We can review the property and explain whether we can participate; a HUD-approved housing counselor or qualified attorney can provide independent guidance.
Do you buy houses in any condition?
We review properties with many types of condition or title issues, including fire or water damage, foundation concerns, vacancies, tenants, probate, or tax liens. Whether a direct purchase is available depends on the property and transaction.
Does a property review obligate me to proceed?
Submitting an inquiry or receiving an offer does not obligate you to sell. Review the written price, terms, costs, and contingencies before deciding whether to sign an agreement.
What happens after I submit the form?
After you submit, we review the property details and contact you for any needed information. If a direct offer is available, it will be provided in writing; accepting it starts the title and closing process.
Do you work with properties in probate?
We can review probate properties. The required authority, signatures, court steps, and timeline vary by estate and state, so the personal representative or heirs should obtain appropriate legal guidance.
Can you buy my house if it's tenant-occupied?
We may review tenant-occupied properties. Existing leases, notices, access rights, and local tenant protections affect what is possible; no eviction or post-closing outcome is guaranteed.
What states and cities do you buy in?
We review properties nationwide, with our deepest roots in Arizona, Texas, and California. Availability depends on the property, market, local closing support, and transaction; contact us to confirm coverage for a specific address.
How is this different from iBuyers like Opendoor or Offerpad?
Eligibility, pricing, fees, repairs, and timelines vary among iBuyers and direct buyers. Compare each written offer's net proceeds, contingencies, service or transaction costs, and closing requirements before choosing.
