Selling a House With Foundation or Plumbing Problems in Illinois

Major foundation and plumbing issues are exactly the kind of problems that scare off traditional buyers and lenders. Ron and Katie’s story shows what’s possible when you need to sell a house with foundation issues in Illinois without spending money you don’t have on repairs first.

How Ron and Katie Sold Their Streator, IL House As-Is

Ron and Katie reached out to us through a Google search, looking for an offer on their house. They and their family were dealing with major foundation and plumbing issues, and they wanted to move to a new place without carrying those problems with them. After a quick call, we talked through how we could get the house sold as-is through our Retail Buyer Program.

Within hours, our local contact Blayton assessed the house and gave us the local confidence to move forward and help them out. We worked with Blayton to find a solution and a buyer that let them sell completely as-is, and we even helped them get set up in their new place, making sure they had enough to move in comfortably.

The house was pending with the right buyer/investor in under a week, and closed just over 30 days after that. Ron was so pleased with the experience that he recommended us to a friend at work, whose mom also worked with us around the same time, and we were able to help both sellers out.

“We were able to help both sellers out, with confidence, transparency, and speed.”
