You probably need the court's permission to sell
In Connecticut, the executor or administrator of an estate usually needs Probate Court authorization before selling estate real property. That means an application, notice to the people with an interest, a hearing, and often a bond. It is not difficult, but it takes weeks, sometimes longer. If a buyer tells you they will close in fourteen days on an estate property, they either have not done one or they are not telling you the truth. We will work on the court's schedule, not pretend it does not exist.
Two courts cover this area
Estates for Brooklyn, Pomfret, Putnam and Woodstock go through the Northeast Probate Court in Putnam. Estates for Canterbury, Killingly and Plainfield go through the Plainfield-Killingly Probate Court. Which one you are in changes nothing about our offer, but knowing it saves you a phone call.
You do not have to clean it out
This is the part families are most surprised by. You can leave the furniture. You can leave the contents of the basement, the garage, the shed and the attic. Take what matters to your family and leave the rest exactly where it is. For an out-of-state heir, not having to spend four weekends and two dumpsters emptying a house is frequently worth more than the difference between offers.
The house is costing the estate money right now
Property taxes, insurance and heat keep running while the estate is open, and vacant-home insurance costs more than the policy that was on it. An unheated house in a Connecticut January is one frozen pipe away from a claim that costs more than the gap between any two offers. None of that is a reason to rush. It is a reason to decide on purpose rather than by default.
We will not be the highest number you can get for your house. A house in good condition, listed on the open market with time to wait, will beat us. That is simply true and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something.
What we offer instead is certainty and no work: no repairs, no cleanout, no showings, no commission, no financing that can fall through. If we think listing it would net you more, we will tell you that — and then you should go do that.
We buy with our own funds and take title. We are not a wholesaler, we do not put your house under contract and shop it to somebody else, and we are not a lead service that sells your phone number to a list of investors.
Since July 2026 Connecticut requires anyone who does that to register with the Department of Consumer Protection and hand you a state disclosure form before you sign anything. If someone is knocking on your door, it is worth asking which one they are.
How it works
Call, text, or send the form. Tell us the address and roughly what is going on. It takes five minutes and commits you to nothing.
Usually within a couple of days. You do not clean, fix, or move anything first. We are looking at the house, not at your housekeeping.
Normally within a day of the walkthrough, in writing, with how we got there. No inspection contingency, so the number does not change later.
Take it, leave it, or think about it for six months. If you sign, our contract gives you three days to cancel for any reason — nobody requires that of us, and we do it anyway.
Towns we buy in
Questions we get
There are four of us and we don't agree. Can you still make an offer?
Yes. We can give you a number to argue about, which is often more useful than arguing in the abstract. We just cannot buy until whoever has authority signs.
Do we need to fix anything first?
No. Nothing. We buy the house in the condition it is in on the day we walk it.
Tell us about the house
No obligation, and no pressure afterward. If we are not the right answer for you, we will say so.
Six questions, about two minutes, and you do not need any paperwork in front of you — the address is enough to start. We answer personally, usually the same day. We do not sell or share your information with anyone.
