How fast can you close?

As little as 7 days, or on whatever timeline works for you. You pick the closing date.

Do I need to make repairs or clean up?

No. We buy houses as-is — take what you want and leave the rest.

Are there any fees or commissions?

None. No agent commissions, no fees. The offer we make is the amount you receive at closing, minus any mortgage payoff or liens.

How do you decide what to offer?

We look at comparable sales, the home's condition, and what it will cost to repair and hold. We'll walk you through our numbers so the offer makes sense.

What if the house is in foreclosure or probate?

We buy houses in foreclosure and probate regularly. Call us right away if there's a deadline — timing matters and we move fast.

Is the offer really no-obligation?

Yes. Get the offer, think it over, talk to whoever you want. No pressure either way.

Situations we help with

If the house has become a burden, we can help

Most of the houses I buy aren't HGTV material — they're houses with a situation attached. Here's what I deal with every year:

🏦 Facing foreclosure

If there's a sale date looming, time matters. A cash sale before the auction can protect your credit and sometimes put money in your pocket. Call now — don't wait.

📜 Inherited / probate property

A house two counties away that you didn't ask for. We buy inherited homes as-is — take the keepsakes, leave the rest, skip the cleanout.

💔 Divorce

A fast, clean sale both parties can agree on — with a firm closing date so everyone can move forward.

🧾 Behind on taxes

Property tax liens and back taxes don't scare us. We'll factor them into the offer and handle payoff at closing.

😤 Tired landlord

Tenants, toilets, and 2 a.m. phone calls — done with it? Sell the rental as-is, tenants and all if needed, and be done.

🔨 Major repairs you can't afford

Roof, foundation, mold, fire damage — whatever it is, don't fix it. We buy houses in any condition.

🏚️ Vacant / code violations

Vacant houses attract fines, break-ins, and insurance headaches. Turn it into cash before it costs you more.

🚚 Relocating

Job moved you and the house didn't sell? Close on your schedule — even after you've already moved.

🤔 Just exploring

Curious what a cash offer looks like versus listing? I'll give you an honest read on both — even if listing is the better move for you.

An honest comparison

Selling to me vs. the alternatives

A cash sale isn't always the highest price — it's the fastest and most certain. Here's the real tradeoff:

	Sell to me for cash	List with an agent	National "we buy houses" chain
Speed	Close in as little as 7 days	60–120+ days typical	Fast, but you may never meet the buyer
Repairs	None — buy as-is	Often required for financing/appraisal	None
Fees	Zero commissions or fees	~6% commissions + closing costs	Varies — read the fine print
Certainty	Cash — no financing fall-through	Deals fall through regularly	May wholesale your contract to someone else
Who you deal with	Me — the local buyer, in person	An agent (good ones earn it)	A call center, then whoever they assign
Price	Fair cash price, below retail	Highest potential price, minus costs & time	Often the lowest offer of the three

My honest advice: if you have time to list with a good agent, wait out the market, and handle repairs — that's often more money. If you need certainty, speed, or just want the problem gone, that's where I come in. I'll tell you straight which camp you're in.

Who's actually buying?

I'm Mark — not a franchise, not a call center.

I live in Morehead. I've been buying houses here for 12+ years, and I own 22 rental homes across the area. When you call, you talk to me. When I make an offer, I come look at the house myself.

Four things sellers should always ask a cash buyer — answered up front:

Who is buying? Me, Mark Nickell, through Solid Ground Rentals, LLC — a Kentucky company.
Who signs the contract? I do — personally. No assigning your contract to a stranger.
How is it funded? With cash. No bank approval, no financing contingency, no fall-through.
Who handles closing? A local title company right here in the area — real closing, real title search, real check.

What you can count on

As-is means as-is. Don't clean, don't repair, don't haul. Take what you want; leave the rest.
No commissions, no fees. The offer is the offer.
Your timeline. Need 7 days? Done. Need 90 days to figure out your move? Also done.
Straight talk. I'll show you how I got to the number — comparable sales, repair costs, all of it.
Local knowledge. Rowan, Fleming, Bath, Menifee, Morgan & Montgomery counties — I buy where I already own and operate.

Questions sellers ask me

As little as 7 days from a signed contract — or on whatever timeline works for you. Some sellers need speed; others need two months to move. You pick the date.

No. Take what you want and leave the rest — furniture, junk, all of it. We handle cleanout and repairs after closing.
