Step by step

From the first call to closing day

You can stop at any point. Nothing is decided until you sign.

Day 1

A conversation

Call 647-955-4277 or send the short form. Someone from our family team gets back to you, learns about the house and what you need. It's a chat, not a sales pitch.

What we'll ask about

  • Where the house is
  • The shape it's in
  • When you'd like to move
  • Anything that makes it tricky, like tenants or an estate

Within a few days

One visit and a written offer

Jaz comes by at a time that suits you, usually for about 30 minutes. He walks through the house, asks a few questions and takes notes. Bring a family member or a friend if you like. If tenants live there, we'll work around them.

[Confirm with Jaz: typical visit length, and whether he takes photos.]

You don't need to

  • Clean, tidy or stage anything
  • Fix or hide problems
  • Clear out belongings
  • Decide anything on the day

What Jaz looks at

  • Roof, foundation, windows and basement
  • Furnace, water heater, electrical and plumbing
  • Kitchens and bathrooms
  • Anything you've told us needs work

How we work out your offer

We start with what the house would sell for once it's fixed up, based on recent sales nearby. Then we take off what it costs us to get it there and resell it. What's left is your offer. You get every line in writing, and if listing with an agent makes more sense for you, we'll say so.

The date you pick

Sign, get paid, hand over the keys

It's a normal, legal sale through lawyers, just without agents, showings or waiting. Often within 2 weeks, or later if you need. We're the buyer, so we're not acting for you. Your lawyer is.

  1. You accept in writing

    You sign an agreement of purchase and sale. Your lawyer can review it first.

  2. Lawyers take over

    Your lawyer and ours handle the title search and paperwork.

  3. Your mortgage is paid off

    Anything owing on the house is paid from the sale on closing day.

  4. You get paid

    The rest comes to you through your lawyer, and you hand over the keys.

Good to have ready

  • Photo ID
  • Latest mortgage statement
  • Property tax bill
  • Your lawyer's name
  • Keys

Don't have a lawyer? We can suggest a few local ones. You choose.

The cost

What it costs you

Asking for an offer is free, and you're never obligated to take it.

$0Commission

We're the buyer, not an agent.

$0Fees from us

No admin, inspection or closing fees.

$0Repairs or clean-up

Leave it as is. It's built into the offer.

Legal fees: [Confirm with Jaz: who pays the seller's legal fees.]

An honest comparison

Is a cash sale right for you?

Our offer will be below what a house in perfect shape gets on the open market. We cover the repairs, the holding costs and the risk of reselling. Here's what you get in return.

What matters Selling to us Listing with an agent
Price A cash price, below top market value Often higher, if the house shows well
Commission None Usually 4% to 5%
Repairs and cleaning None, leave it as is Often needed to sell
Privacy One visit, no sign, no listing Public listing and open houses
Closing Often about 2 weeks, or your date 60 to 90 days is common
Certainty Cash, no mortgage approval needed Buyer financing can fall through

A cash sale usually makes sense if

  • You need to sell soon, or on a set date
  • The house needs work you can't take on
  • You want privacy and no showings
  • You're handling tenants, an estate or a separation

An agent is probably better if

  • Your home is in great shape
  • You can wait 2 to 3 months or more
  • Top dollar matters more than speed or certainty

If that's you, we'll tell you, even if it means we don't buy your house.

Questions about the process

Something we didn't cover? Give us a call.

Call or text647-955-4277

How fast can you close?

Many sales close in about 2 weeks. If you need it sooner, we'll try, and if you need more time, we can close weeks or months out. You pick the date.

How do you decide on the offer price?

We look at recent sales near you, the home's condition, the cost of repairs, and what similar homes rent for. We walk you through the numbers so you can see how we got there.

I'm already behind on my mortgage. Is it too late?

Call us as soon as you can. There's often still time to sell before a power of sale goes through. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help in time. A lawyer can explain your options too.

Do you really pay cash?

Yes. Funds come by bank draft or wire through your lawyer on closing day. Our offer doesn't depend on a bank approving a mortgage.

Do I need to clean up or fix anything?

No. Leave what you don't want. Just tell us ahead of time so we can plan for it in the offer.

What happens after I ask for an offer?

Someone from our family team calls you to learn about the home. It's a conversation, not a sales pitch. If it makes sense, Jaz books a short visit and gives you a written offer.

Free, no obligation and completely private. Ask anything, then decide in your own time.
