We Buy Damaged Homes for Cash

If your house needs substantial repairs, selling it can mean deciding how much time, money and work to put in before you move on. Burnett Home Buyers purchases houses in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky in their current condition. Tell us what you know about the property, and we can discuss whether a direct sale fits your plans.

A direct cash sale lets you sell your house as-is without repairs, cleaning or repeated showings. Tell us about your property and preferred closing date to get started.

Start with the condition of the house

You do not need a finished renovation plan before contacting us. Describe the problems you know about, such as dated interiors, water damage, mold concerns, an unfinished basement, older windows or repairs you have postponed. Photos and existing inspection reports can help us understand the work involved, but a property review may still be needed.

Be clear about areas that cannot be accessed and problems that have already been evaluated. We assess each property individually; an inquiry is not a commitment to purchase every house or accept every condition.

What information helps us evaluate the property?

• The property location and type of home.
• Known damage and repairs, including any inspections or contractor estimates already available.
• Whether the house is occupied and how a walkthrough can be arranged.
• Whether belongings or unfinished work would remain.
• Your preferred timing and any known title or ownership complications.

You can begin with what you know. We can explain what additional information is needed as the conversation progresses.

A documented Fairfield renovation

One Fairfield ranch required a major cleanout, professional mold remediation, window replacement and extensive interior work. Our team coordinated remediation and retesting, an engineered opening between the kitchen and living areas, a new kitchen and improvements to the basement and other living spaces.

The Fairfield ranch renovation case study explains the starting condition, work and finished result. It is one documented project, not a promise that every property will involve the same repairs or outcome.

Compare repairing, listing as-is and selling directly

Repair and list: Completing the right work may help a house appeal to more buyers, but you take on the project planning, expenses and time before the sale.

List as-is: You can seek market exposure without completing every repair first. Showings, inspections, financing and negotiation can still affect how the sale proceeds.

Sell directly: A direct buyer can evaluate the house in its current condition and discuss terms with you. The offer reflects the work and risks the buyer expects to take on. Consider the convenience alongside the price when comparing options.

How the next steps work

First, tell us about the house and your plans. We review the information and arrange access if needed. After evaluating the property, we can explain an offer and the proposed terms. You decide whether it works for you.

Offer and closing timing depend on property access, evaluation, title work and the terms agreed in writing. If belongings or unfinished repairs would remain, discuss that before signing so the agreement reflects what both sides expect. Read more about how our home-buying process works.
