Detroit, MI
Sell your Detroit house for cash, as-is.
Detroit houses come with a lot of stories: a parent's bungalow off a spoke street, a rental that never quite paid for itself, a frame house that needs a roof before it needs a listing. American EZ Offers buys Detroit homes for cash without asking you to clean them out or bring them up to show-ready condition.
We make written offers on occupied houses, vacant houses, and houses already in the tax or mortgage foreclosure process. You can keep living there until a closing date you agree to. If the numbers do not work for you, you do not have to sell.
Houses we see in Detroit
Much of Detroit's stock is older wood-frame housing: bungalows, colonials, and duplexes on 30- to 50-foot lots. Deferred maintenance, outdated electrical, and tax foreclosure are common reasons owners call. We price the house in its current condition.

A note for Detroit sellers
If a Wayne County tax foreclosure is on the calendar, call sooner. A sale is sometimes possible before the auction, and sometimes it is not. We will tell you which, and we will not ask you to skip a housing counselor.
Questions from Detroit
Do you buy Detroit houses with back taxes?
We can often purchase a house with delinquent taxes, with the title company paying what is required to transfer title from the sale proceeds. The written offer shows what has to be paid. If the taxes and the loan are more than the offer, we will say so.
Do you buy on both the east and west sides?
Yes. We buy throughout Detroit, not only in a few neighborhoods. The offer is based on the house and the block it is on.
