Max Cohen: Your Trusted Detroit Home Buyer

"I know the Detroit market, not just from data, but from walking the neighborhoods and seeing the unique challenges homeowners face. I see Mid-Century Brick Ranch homes dealing with Galvanized Plumbing Corrosion and other costly issues every day. Unlike Keller Williams Realty, I buy houses directly, as-is, saving you the hassle of repairs, showings, and realtor fees. That means you save an average of $6,000 on a typical Detroit home sale with us. My goal is to provide a transparent, fast, and fair solution so you can move on to your next chapter without stress."

Understanding Detroit Property Laws & Costs

Navigating property transactions in Detroit requires an understanding of Michigan Compiled Laws Chapter 565 (MCL 565). This is especially true for complex situations like an inherited home, where probate can add significant time and legal fees.

Dealing with properties that have been neglected or abandoned is also common in certain Detroit areas. If you're managing a vacant property, you might face specific challenges, including increased liability and the potential for blight enforcement from the City of Detroit Assessor's Office.

We streamline the process, ensuring compliance while offering a quick sale, saving you from protracted legal battles and ongoing expenses.

Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Your Detroit Home

What types of houses do you buy in Detroit?

We buy all types of residential properties in Detroit, regardless of their condition, size, or age. This includes single-family homes, multi-family units, condos, and even properties with significant issues like foundation problems, outdated electrical, or specific local challenges such as Galvanized Plumbing Corrosion and effects from Heavy Rainfall and Urban Flooding in areas like Zone AE.

How quickly can I get an offer for my Detroit home?

Once you provide us with your property information, we typically perform a quick evaluation and can present you with a fair, no-obligation cash offer within 24-48 hours. Our process is designed for speed and efficiency to meet your urgent needs.

Do I need to make any repairs to my Detroit property?

Absolutely not. We specialize in buying homes as-is. You don't need to spend any money or time on repairs, cleaning, or staging. We'll take care of everything after the purchase, saving you the typical costs and headaches associated with traditional home sales in Detroit.

What if my property has code violations or tax issues?

Detroit properties sometimes come with existing challenges such as Blight Violation Fines or outstanding taxes handled by the Wayne County Treasurer. We are experienced in resolving these issues and can often absorb them into our offer, providing a clear path to closing for you without the additional burden.

How does your offer compare to selling with a realtor?

While a realtor might aim for a higher list price, their process involves commissions (often up to $6,000 on a $100,000 home), closing costs, repair expenses, and months on the market. Our cash offer is firm, requires no repairs or fees, and offers a guaranteed quick close. We provide certainty and convenience, often resulting in a net amount similar to or better than a traditional sale once all costs are factored in.
