Zero. No agent commissions (which typically run 5–6% of the sale price), no closing costs, no hidden fees of any kind. The number we offer is the exact number you walk away with at closing.
We base our offer on the property's after-repair value in the current Madison County market, minus estimated renovation costs and our target margin. Our offer won't match full retail — but when you subtract agent commissions, repair costs, closing costs, and months of carrying costs from a traditional sale, most sellers net more with us.

Local Expertise
Alton is one of the most distinctive housing markets in the Metro East — grand 19th-century homes on Christian Hill, brick four-squares in Middletown, and workforce housing through Upper Alton near the river bluffs. Big, beautiful old houses come with big old repair bills: slate roofs, stone foundations, knob-and-tube wiring. Many Alton homes trade at price points where a $30,000 repair makes a traditional sale impossible. We buy those houses as-is and do the work ourselves.
We invest in the Alton–Godfrey corridor for our own rental portfolio, so we're buying here in any market. The situations we see most in Alton: inherited family homes that have been sitting vacant, landlords with tired rentals, and houses carrying years of deferred maintenance the owner can't fund. Whatever shape it's in, Jim will look at it — vacant, full of belongings, or mid-repair — and make a firm cash offer within 24 hours.
