"I know the Lake Charles market. I've seen firsthand the unique challenges homeowners face here, especially after recent events. I see Ranch-style and mid-century brick homes dealing with galvanized plumbing corrosion and the lingering effects of hurricane and tropical storm flooding. Unlike Latter & Blum and traditional real estate agents, my focus is on providing a seamless, as-is sale. I buy your property directly, saving you the headache of repairs, endless showings, and realtor fees. That means you save an average of $13,200 on commissions alone.

Selling an inherited home in Lake Charles? Louisiana law (specifically under the Louisiana Civil Code, Articles on Succession) can be complex, especially with probate. We simplify this. If your property is currently vacant or abandoned, additional local ordinances and potential liabilities may apply, making a swift sale even more critical.

Absolutely. Lake Charles has unfortunately seen its share of natural disasters, and many homes still bear the brunt of hurricane and tropical storm flooding. We specialize in buying homes as-is, regardless of the extent of storm damage. You don't need to undertake costly repairs or deal with insurance adjusters; we'll assess the damage and provide a fair cash offer.
Selling an inherited home can be emotionally and legally complex, especially if it involves probate court through the Calcasieu Parish Clerk of Court. We have extensive experience with inherited properties and can guide you through the process, often buying the home directly to simplify matters and provide immediate liquidity to heirs, even if the property needs significant repairs or is far from Chennault International Airport.
Yes, we absolutely can. Many properties in Lake Charles are located in areas designated as an AE Flood Zone by FEMA. This often deters traditional buyers due to increased insurance costs and financing hurdles. As cash buyers, flood zone designation does not prevent us from making an offer and purchasing your property quickly and efficiently.
The primary difference is convenience and speed. With a traditional agent like Latter & Blum, you'll likely face showings, open houses, negotiations, mandatory repairs (like fixing galvanized plumbing corrosion), and pay a 5-6% commission, which for a $220,000 home is about $13,200. We offer a direct cash purchase, eliminating all those steps, associated costs, and the uncertainty of traditional financing.
Yes, you can. We frequently work with homeowners who are behind on property taxes with the Calcasieu Parish Tax Assessor or utility bills with providers like Entergy Louisiana. These financial burdens can be resolved through the cash sale, allowing you to settle debts and move forward without further stress. We handle the complexities to ensure a clear title for closing.
