#1 Home Buyer in the Motherlode
Selling to Motherlode Home Buyers, Step by Step
- Today — tell us about your house. Call (209) 812-9118 or send the form. A short conversation is all it takes.
- Within 24 hours — get a firm written offer. One quick walkthrough, then real numbers based on your home’s condition and local sales.
- Day 7–14 — close and get paid. Pick the date. We handle the paperwork; you get cash at closing.
How We Calculate Your Cash Offer
No mystery, no games — every Motherlode Home Buyers offer comes from the same three inputs:
- What your house would sell for fully fixed up — based on real sales of comparable homes in your area (the “after-repair value”).
- Minus the cost of repairs and updates needed to get it there.
- Minus our costs and margin to buy, hold, and resell the property.
That’s it. Ask us to walk you through the math on your house and we will, line by line. It’s also why our offers stick: the number we put in writing is the number you get at closing — no lowball-then-renegotiate games after an “inspection surprise.”
We Buy Houses in Any Situation
- Inherited a house — skip months of cleanout and probate-property stress; sell as-is, contents and all.
- Facing foreclosure — a fast sale can stop the clock and protect your remaining equity.
- Divorce or separation — a clean cash sale settles the largest shared asset quickly and fairly.
- Relocating for work — close on your schedule so the move doesn’t wait on a buyer’s lender.
- Tired of being a landlord — we buy with tenants in place; no evictions, no turnovers.
- Major repairs needed — foundation, roof, fire or water damage: we buy houses other buyers can’t touch.

Common Questions from Sellers
What kinds of houses do you buy?
Single-family homes, inherited properties, rentals with or without tenants, houses mid-renovation, storm- or fire-damaged properties — if it’s a house someone needs to sell, we want to look at it. The one thing we always do is give you a straight answer about whether we’re the right buyer.
How quickly can you buy my house?
Motherlode Home Buyers typically makes a written offer within 24 hours of seeing your property and can close in as little as 7–14 days. Need more time? We close on your schedule.
Do you really buy houses as-is?
Yes — as-is means as-is. No repairs, no cleaning, no hauling things away. We’ve bought houses with foundation problems, fire and water damage, and decades of belongings still inside.
Are there any fees or commissions?
None. Motherlode Home Buyers charges no commissions or service fees, and we pay typical closing costs. The offer you accept is what you walk away with at closing, minus anything owed on the property (like a mortgage payoff or back taxes).
Will your offer be full market value?
Honestly, no — a cash offer is usually below full retail price. That’s the trade for speed, certainty, zero fees, and zero repairs. We’ll show you exactly how we calculated our number so you can compare it fairly against listing.
