Get a cash offer for your house from out of state.
You live somewhere else. The house is here. Enter the address and see a real cash number. You sign remotely; no flights, no weekends back.
You don't live here anymore. We do the work on this end.
Out-of-state owners come in a few shapes. Inherited a house from a parent across the country and live somewhere else. Moved for work in 2019 and rented it out ever since. Bought a second home that never became the retirement plan. Each version has the same problem: managing a sale from 500+ miles away, often with a property you haven't seen in person in years.
The mechanics of selling remotely are fine now. E-signature, remote online notarization (RON is authorized in nearly every US state — most adopted it during 2020–2022 and keep extending it), wire transfers at closing. You don't need to fly in. You don't need to be at the title company.
The hard part is the walkthrough, the property condition, and the cleanout (if there's stuff left). A cash buyer with a local crew handles all three.
Your stage sets your buyer pool and your offer range.
What a cash buyer actually pays here.
The cash-offer math is unchanged by geography: ARV × 0.65–0.75, minus repair reserve, minus margin. What geography does affect is information quality. A seller who last walked the house 5 years ago can't tell us what the HVAC is doing today, so the walkthrough becomes the source of truth and the reserve widens until we do it.
Example: $280,000 ARV on a house in Atlanta, GA, owner in Arizona since 2018, tenanted until 2024 and vacant since. Walkthrough finds $28,000 in repairs (roof, HVAC, kitchen, minor water damage from an old leak). Math: $280,000 × 0.70 = $196,000, minus $28,000 = cash offer around $168,000.
We send video walkthroughs to out-of-state sellers before the offer locks. You see what we see. No hidden surprises.[1]
Cash vs. listing — here's how long each takes.
Remote closings take the same 21–30 days as local. Signing happens at a title company near you (the buyer's title company can typically use a reciprocal arrangement), or with a remote online notary. Funds wire from the title company to your account the day of closing.
With work before listing, photos, time on market, and inspection risk. On a tight timeline, a listing usually doesn't close in time — you'd want cash or a hybrid strategy.
When cash is NOT the right move from out of state.
If the house is in good shape, tenanted with a strong renter, and generates positive cash flow, hiring a local property manager (8–10% of gross rents) usually beats selling. Rental demand is strong enough in nearly every major US metro that a professionally managed rental runs near-autonomously.
If the house is in good shape and you have 60–120 days, remote listing with a local agent works. Modern tools (virtual tours, DocuSign, remote notaries) mean you don't need to travel. Retail typically beats cash by 15–25 points.
And if the reason you haven't sold is emotional (grew up there, sentimental value), a fast cash sale will not feel better than a slow retail sale. Give yourself the time. The cash option waits while you decide.
