Want to sell your house as-is in Des Moines? I buy houses in any condition for cash. Leave the repairs, the junk, and the cleaning to me, and walk away with a fair price and zero hassle.
Why Des Moines homeowners call Sam
Any condition really does mean any condition
Outdated kitchen, leaky roof, fire or water damage, a hoarder situation, code violations, a house that's been sitting empty for years, I've bought all of it in and around Des Moines. These are the houses most agents won't even list because they're too rough. You don't clean, you don't fix, you don't haul anything off. Take what you want, leave the rest, and I handle the mess.
Wondering how an as-is cash number gets built? The CFPB explains how cash-buyer offers work, and HUD has solid background on the selling process.

Sell My House As-Is in Des Moines: FAQ
Do I need to clean or repair anything first?
Not a thing. Leave behind broken appliances, old furniture, and clutter. I buy the house exactly as it sits and deal with all of it.
What condition of house will you actually buy?
Just about any. Storm and water damage, deferred maintenance, full gut-jobs, inherited time-capsules, rentals trashed by tenants. The rougher it is, the more likely I'm your buyer.
Will you buy a house with liens or code violations?
Usually yes. Liens get sorted out at closing through the title work, and code issues are exactly the kind of thing I take on so you don't have to.
Do you buy houses in every part of Des Moines?
Yes, every neighborhood and every condition, from Beaverdale bungalows to south-side starter homes and everything in between.
