Question 1

Can you buy a fire-damaged house in Ohio as-is?

Accepted Answer

Yes — and we do it regularly. We buy fire-damaged properties throughout Ohio in any condition, including total losses, partial fires, smoke-only damage, and water damage from firefighting. You make zero repairs and pay nothing out of pocket.

Question 2

How much will I get for my fire-damaged house in Ohio?

Accepted Answer

Our offer accounts for the extent of the damage and the cost of repairs honestly. While the offer will be below what a fully renovated home would sell for, you are also paying zero in repairs, zero in commissions, and zero in closing costs — which often means you net more than you would from a traditional sale after deducting those costs.

Question 3

Do I need to deal with insurance before selling?

Accepted Answer

No. You can sell to us before, during, or after the insurance process. Many sellers find it easier to sell the property as-is and let us handle the restoration — rather than managing contractors, adjusters, and permits themselves. We have experience coordinating with insurance companies when needed.

Question 4

Can you close before my insurance claim is settled?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can close on the property independently of your insurance claim. You receive your cash at closing and continue to pursue any insurance proceeds you are owed separately. The two transactions do not have to be linked.

Question 5

What types of fire damage do you buy?

Accepted Answer

All of it. Kitchen fires, electrical fires, total losses, smoke and soot damage only, water damage from firefighting, structural damage, boarded-up properties. We have bought fire-damaged properties in every condition across the Dayton area and statewide.

Question 6

How fast can you close on a fire-damaged property in Ohio?

Accepted Answer

We closed Michael R.'s fire-damaged rental on Ruskin Rd in Dayton in 10 days. Typical range is 7–14 days. If you have a time-sensitive situation — insurance deadline, ongoing carrying costs, vacant property liability — we can move quickly.

Question 7

Do you buy fire-damaged houses in Dayton and surrounding cities?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we buy fire-damaged properties throughout Montgomery, Greene, and Miami counties. That includes Dayton, Kettering, Centerville, Huber Heights, Beavercreek, Vandalia, Trotwood, and Riverside. We have bought partial-fire properties and total losses in cities all over the Dayton metro.

Question 8

Will Dayton-area cities let me sell a fire-damaged house with an open complaint or board-up order?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We routinely buy properties in Dayton and surrounding cities that are boarded up, have an open nuisance complaint, or sit on a city watch list. We coordinate directly with the municipality at closing — you don't have to make a single phone call to the building department.
