Selling a house in Albany
A local buyer who knows Albany.
Albany is a small city just north of Berkeley, known for its schools, Solano Avenue and tightly packed streets of 1920s–1940s bungalows. We buy houses all over Albany, including ones that haven’t been updated in generations.
The homes we buy in Albany
Albany’s older bungalows often need foundation work, electrical upgrades and sewer lateral replacement, and small lots leave little room for additions. We buy them as-is.
Who we help
Longtime Albany owners downsizing, heirs selling a family home, and landlords ready to step back are the sellers we see most here.

Common questions
Selling in Albany: straight answers.
Does Albany require a sewer lateral certificate when I sell?
Albany is part of the East Bay’s regional sewer lateral program, which generally requires a compliance certificate when a property changes hands. As the buyer, we can usually take on that work, and we’ll explain how it applies to your house.
Can I sell my Albany house without fixing anything?
Yes. We make an offer on the house as it is today. No repairs, cleaning or staging needed.
How do you determine your offer?
We look at the property’s condition, the repairs it needs, and recent comparable sales nearby. We walk you through how we got to the number, with no pressure to accept.
Are there any fees or commissions?
No. You won’t pay agent commissions or pay us any fees. We cover typical closing costs, so the offer you accept is what you can expect to walk away with, minus any existing liens or mortgage payoff.
Do I have to make repairs or clean?
No. Sell the house exactly as it is. Take what you want and leave the rest.
How fast can you close?
As fast as 3 days for the right property, once title is clear. If you need more time, we can close weeks or months out, whatever works for you.
