City condemned the property. Daily fines were mounting. Susan lives in Columbus and couldn't manage the situation remotely. Mike paid all outstanding fines as part of the deal and bought the house as-is.

I was at my wit's end. The city was threatening me, and I had no way to fix the house from Columbus. Mike Wall was a Godsend. He took over the house, paid the fines, and saved me from a financial disaster. If you need to sell a house fast in Fairborn, Mike is the only person to call.

Cash Sale vs. Fixing Violations Before Listing
| EZ Sell (Cash) | Traditional Listing | |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs required | None | Must fix violations first |
| City fines | We absorb in some cases | Seller must pay before listing |
| Time to close | 7–14 days | 90–180 days (if it sells) |
| Listing with violations | N/A — we buy direct | Most agents won't list |
| Buyer financing | Cash — no contingencies | Banks won't lend on violations |
| Municipality coordination | We handle it | Seller's responsibility |
| Commissions | None | 5–6% of sale price |
Properties with code violations can't secure traditional financing — meaning the only realistic retail buyers are cash investors anyway. Skip the middleman and call us directly.
