St. Louis's Most Trusted Cash House Buyers Since 2016
My wife took a government job overseas and our window kept shrinking. We had no interest in managing repairs from across the world or being long-distance landlords. They worked around our 80-day timeline and let us leave the house exactly as it was.
– David
David and his wife had a plan. She’d accepted a government job overseas; they’d sell the house in St. Louis and move. Then the government shutdown delayed everything 40 days. Then the holidays added more delay. By the time they got serious about selling, they had roughly 80 to 90 days to close, with an international move on the other side of it. The 1980s home needed general TLC, trim work, minor repairs, a basement that had taken some water 2 to 3 years back. David said he was “in the trenches” trying to finish it. He also didn’t want to deal with cleaning out “loads and loads” of stuff before they left. Renting it out while abroad? Off the table.
The team treated the 80-day window as a hard constraint, not a wish.
David could stop trying to finish the punch list. The house was bought as-is.
He didn’t have to deal with cleaning out the house before flying out.
David's path to closing before an overseas posting
David had floated listing with a cousin who worked as a realtor to try for top dollar. But every traditional path assumed time he didn’t have, finishing repairs, showings, inspections, an unpredictable closing date with a financed buyer. Any one of those slipping would have put the move at risk.
Chris built the offer around David’s target price (he wanted $260k minimum) and his timeline. The acquisitions team agreed to push the finance side to make that price work and to align closing with the family’s move.
The contract was signed within a week of the first call. No repairs required. No cleanout required. No staging, no open houses, no buyer financing risk to derail the move.
The deal closed inside the family’s overseas window. David and his wife flew out without two mortgages, without a rental management problem, and without a half-finished punch list waiting for them when they got back.

A cash buyer who hit his $260k target, took the house as-is with the punch list unfinished, and aligned closing with the family’s flight out.
Closed inside the overseas window. No two mortgages, no rental headache from another continent, no unfinished punch list waiting back home.
