St. Louis's Most Trusted Cash House Buyers Since 2016
My mother-in-law is 85 and just moved into a nursing home. I’m terrible at negotiating and I just needed someone to walk me through this so we could get the house sold quickly and protect her. They explained everything and made it simple.
– Mary
When Mary’s 85-year-old mother-in-law Virginia moved into a nursing home, the family suddenly faced a question they weren’t ready for: what do we do with the house? Mary’s husband held power of attorney, the mortgage still had about $41,000 on it, and the family needed to satisfy nursing home and insurance asset rules quickly. On top of that, the house had foundation concerns that nobody had priced out yet, and Mary openly said she was “terrible at negotiating.” She started making calls. Another investor had floated around $38,000. She wanted to be sure they were doing the right thing for Virginia.
From the first call, the focus was on Virginia and the family, not on locking in a deal.
The team assessed the house as-is, factoring in the foundation question without asking Mary to chase contractor estimates.
Mary said outright that she didn’t feel confident negotiating. She got a single point of contact who explained each step clearly.
Mary's path through a fast nursing-home move
Listing meant repairs Virginia couldn’t pay for, a foundation report, and weeks or months of showings, all while the nursing home and insurance clock kept ticking. The mortgage balance also limited how low the family could go. Mary needed a buyer who could absorb the unknowns and close fast.
Chris walked Mary through the process step by step. They worked from a price range of roughly $47,000 to $62,000 (assuming the foundation issue was on the milder side) and helped her understand the math against the mortgage payoff. Most importantly, they were patient. Mary wasn’t the legal owner, her husband held POA, and the team coordinated with him directly.
The contract came together about a week after the first call. The agreement was as-is, no foundation report required, no contractor walkthroughs. Mary didn’t have to clean out the house or stage anything. The team coordinated payoff details directly with the mortgage company.
The sale closed without Virginia or her family having to manage repairs, showings, or surprises. The proceeds satisfied the nursing home and insurance requirements, the mortgage was paid off, and Mary’s family got back to focusing on Virginia’s care.
