1. How fast can I sell my house for cash in Reno, NV?
Most homeowners close with Cash for Reno Houses in as little as 7–14 days. Because we purchase properties directly, there are no delays with banks, appraisals, or inspections, allowing for a much faster closing timeline than traditional real estate sales.
2. Do I need to make repairs before selling my house?
No, you don’t have to make any repairs or upgrades. We buy houses as-is, whether they’re damaged, outdated, or even condemned. You can skip cleaning, staging, and remodeling — we handle everything after purchase.
3. What types of properties do you buy in Nevada?
We buy all kinds of residential properties — including single-family homes, duplexes, condos, mobile homes, and inherited houses. Whether your property is vacant, occupied, or in foreclosure, we’re interested in making a fair cash offer.
4. How do I request a cash offer for my home?

5. Will I have to pay any fees or commissions?
No. When you sell to Cash for Reno Houses, there are no realtor commissions, closing costs, or hidden fees. The amount we offer is the amount you’ll receive at closing — simple and transparent.
6. Can you still buy my home if I’m behind on mortgage payments or facing foreclosure?
Yes, absolutely. We frequently work with homeowners in pre-foreclosure or those struggling with late mortgage payments. Our team can help you avoid foreclosure and sell your home before it’s too late.
7. What if my home has tenants or is part of an estate?
That’s not a problem. We buy tenant-occupied and inherited homes as well. Our process helps landlords and heirs sell without the hassle of evictions, probate delays, or property cleanup.
8. How do you determine my home’s cash offer?
We evaluate your home based on location, condition, market trends, and comparable sales in your area. Our goal is to make a fair, data-backed offer that benefits both parties — no lowballing or hidden adjustments.
9. Where do you buy homes besides Reno?
Our service area includes Sparks, Carson City, Gardnerville, and surrounding communities. If your home is within driving distance of Reno, we can likely make you a cash offer quickly.
10. What makes Cash for Reno Houses different from other home buyers?
We’re a local company, not a nationwide chain. That means we know the Northern Nevada market, we close fast using local title companies, and we treat every seller with honesty and respect. Our mission is to provide real solutions, not just quick sales.
11. Can I choose the closing date when selling my Reno home for cash?
Yes. When you sell to Cash for Reno Houses, you pick the closing date that works best for your situation. Whether you need to close fast or need extra time to move, we adjust the timeline so the process stays stress-free.
12. Will you still buy my Reno property if it has major damage or code violations?
Absolutely. Many homes in Reno face issues like older roofs, foundation settling, plumbing damage, or unpermitted work. We buy properties exactly as they are, and you don’t need to fix anything before selling.
13. Do I need to clean out my Reno home before selling it for cash?
No. You can leave behind unwanted items, trash, furniture, or anything you no longer want. Our team handles the cleanout after closing so you don’t have to lift a finger.
14. Can I sell my Reno home quickly if I’m relocating out of Nevada?
Yes, and many sellers do. If you’re moving for work, family, or lifestyle changes, we can close fast and handle the paperwork so you don’t have to manage a long, stressful sale while relocating.
15. What if my Reno property is in probate or part of an estate?
We work with families dealing with probate all the time. Even if the legal process isn’t finished, we can still evaluate the property, make an offer, and help guide you through the steps needed to complete the sale once the court approves it.
16. Do you buy land or vacant lots in Reno, NV?
Yes. In addition to homes, we also consider residential lots and vacant land in and around Reno. If you’re unsure whether your parcel qualifies, contact us and we’ll take a look right away.
17. How fast do I get my cash after selling my house in Reno?
Once closing is completed at the title company, you usually receive your funds the same day — either by wire transfer or cashier’s check. Most Reno sellers receive their money within hours.
18. Can I sell my Reno home to you if it’s currently listed with a realtor?
Yes, it’s possible. You may need to end or complete your agreement with your agent depending on the contract. Once that’s resolved, we can make you a direct, no-obligation cash offer.
19. What if the title company finds issues with my Reno property?
Issues like liens, unpaid taxes, or old judgments are common in older Reno neighborhoods. We work directly with the title company to resolve these problems so you can still move forward with the sale — often without extra effort or cost on your part.
20. Is there any pressure to accept your cash offer for my Reno home?
No. Every offer we make is free, fair, and comes with zero pressure. If it’s right for you, great. If not, you’re free to walk away without any fees or commitments.
