Facing a mountain of repairs you simply can’t afford? You are not alone. Many California homeowners find themselves stuck with properties that need work, from foundation cracks and roof damage to outdated systems and code violations.
The costs add up fast, and the stress can feel quite overwhelming.
With Osborne Homes, you don’t have to fix a thing. We are a trusted, well-established real estate investment company that buys houses in any condition for cash, and can close in as few as seven days.
That means you don’t lift a hammer, hire a contractor, or clean a single room. You can leave the peeling paint, the broken HVAC, the leaky roof, and anything else that needs work. We will buy your house, exactly as it stands today!
Trying to sell a house that needs work through a real estate agent can quickly become a frustrating and expensive ordeal for many reasons, including:
Many agents won’t take on properties that need significant work because they’re harder to show, harder to sell, and mean smaller commissions after price reductions.
Most buyers rely on mortgages, and lenders won’t approve loans for homes with major issues like roof damage, foundation problems, or faulty electrical systems. Your deal can collapse at the last minute.
Even “minor” fixes can reveal bigger problems once contractors get started. What begins as a $5,000 estimate can easily become $20,000 or more.
Traditional sales take 60-90 days or longer — and that’s if everything goes smoothly. With a house that needs repairs, you could be waiting indefinitely.
| Traditional Sale | Osborne Homes |
|---|---|
| Pay for repairs before listing | We buy houses as-is - no repairs needed |
| Agent commissions (5-6%) | No commissions or fees |
| 60-90+ day timeline | Close in as few as 7 days |
| Deals fall through due to financing | All-cash offer — no loan contingencies |
When you sell a house as is in California with Osborne Homes, the process is designed to be remarkably fast and stress-free. Here’s exactly how it works:
When we say we buy homes in any condition, we really mean it. Unlike companies that buy houses as-is but then quickly back out when they see the real scope of work, Osborne Homes has handled properties in all levels of condition since 2007.
Cracked foundations, settling, and structural issues scare off most buyers and make traditional financing nearly impossible. We purchase properties with these problems every week.
A damaged roof can cost $10,000-$30,000 to replace — money many homeowners simply don’t have. We buy houses with roof problems and handle the repairs ourselves.
Older homes often have systems that don’t meet current code. Updating electrical panels, re-piping, or replacing HVAC systems is expensive and disruptive. We take these properties as-is.
Mold remediation and water damage repairs require specialized contractors and can reveal hidden problems. We buy houses with these issues and assume full responsibility for all remediation.
Whether your home needs minor cosmetic updates or major structural work, we are one of few companies that buy houses in any condition, and we won’t change our offer after seeing the property!
We understand you may have concerns about selling to a real estate investor. You’ve probably heard stories about lowball offers, last-minute changes, or hidden fees. That’s not how we operate.
Osborne Homes is a California real estate investment company founded by Mike Osborne in 2007. Since then, we’ve purchased, renovated, and sold over 5,000 properties throughout the state. Our reputation is built on treating homeowners with honesty and respect.
