Everything You Want to Know About Selling Your Sacramento House for Cash

It's three simple steps. First, you fill out the form on this site or call Gordon directly at 916-261-2381. Second, Gordon visits the property and presents you with a written no-obligation cash offer — typically within 24 hours. Third, if you accept, you pick the closing date and Gordon handles all the paperwork. That's it.

As fast as 10 days from the day you accept the offer. But speed is an option, not a requirement — you choose the closing date. If you need 30, 60, or even 90 days to find your next place or coordinate a move, that's completely fine. Gordon works on your timeline, not his.

You talk directly to Gordon Cuffe — the actual buyer. Not a call center, not a middleman, not an assistant reading from a script. Gordon picks up his own phone at 916-261-2381. The person you talk to on day one is the same person who shows up at the property and signs at the closing table.

It helps to be there so Gordon can answer questions on the spot and you can ask yours, but it's not required. If you can arrange access to the property, Gordon can do the walkthrough without you present and follow up with the offer by phone or in person.

Gordon typically makes his offer the same day as the walkthrough or within 24 hours. There are no committees, no investors to get approval from, and no third-party appraisals. Gordon is the decision-maker, which means no delays.

Gordon looks at the property's location, current condition, what comparable homes have sold for nearby, and what it will realistically cost to renovate and resell. He has been working in Sacramento real estate since 1993 and buying fixer-uppers since 2009, so he knows local values without relying on a national algorithm. He uses that experience to make you the highest offer he can while still making the deal work.

Gordon makes his best offer the first time, every time. He's not here to play games — his business model depends on buying homes at a fair price, renovating them, and putting them back into the Sacramento community. Read the reviews: sellers specifically mention that Gordon was fair and didn't try to squeeze the price down after the fact.

None whatsoever. The offer is 100% free and there is zero pressure to accept it. If it doesn't work for you, you walk away — no hard feelings, no follow-up calls pushing you to reconsider. Gordon would rather you feel good about the deal than feel cornered into one.

No. Gordon doesn't make a high offer and then chip away at it after conducting inspections — a tactic sometimes called a 'bait and switch.' The number he offers is the number he pays. There are no official inspections required, no bank appraisals, and no third-party approval process that could be used as an excuse to reduce the offer.

Yes. Gordon buys houses with existing mortgages all the time. At closing, your mortgage gets paid off from the proceeds of the sale, and you receive whatever is left. The title company handles all of this — you don't need to do anything extra.

Zero. No realtor commissions (typically 5–6% with a traditional sale), no closing costs charged to you, and no hidden fees of any kind. The number on Gordon's cash offer is the number you walk away with at the closing table. Period.

No. Gordon handles all the paperwork through a reputable local Sacramento title company. You don't need a real estate attorney, a realtor, or any other professional to facilitate the sale. Just show up on closing day, sign, and collect your cash.

With a traditional listing you typically pay 5–6% in realtor commissions plus 1–3% in closing costs, spend money on repairs or staging, and wait 60–90+ days with the risk of the buyer's financing falling through. With Gordon you pay zero fees, make zero repairs, and close in 10 days or on your timeline. The offer may be below full market value, but when you factor in zero fees, zero repairs, and zero uncertainty, many sellers come out ahead — or very close. See our full comparison page.

Not a thing. Gordon buys Sacramento houses completely as-is — no cleaning, no repairs, no paint, no landscaping, nothing. Take what you want from the house and leave the rest. Gordon handles all cleanout and renovation after closing. You are not responsible for hauling anything out unless you choose to.

Yes. Gordon specifically buys fixer-uppers — that's been his focus since 2009. Foundation issues, roof damage, fire damage, water damage, pest infestations — he has seen it all and bought it all. The condition of the property does not disqualify it from consideration.

Yes. Properties with code violations, unpermitted work, or open permits are exactly the kind of homes Gordon specializes in. You don't need to resolve any violations before selling. Learn more about selling a house with code violations in Sacramento.

Gordon buys single-family homes, townhouses, condos, and mobile homes across all of Sacramento County. He also buys rental properties and multi-unit properties. Any property type, any condition, any neighborhood in the 916.

Yes — and the sooner you call, the more options you have. A cash sale can stop a foreclosure before it goes on your record, protecting your credit for years to come. Gordon has helped Sacramento homeowners in pre-foreclosure sell quickly and walk away with cash rather than losing everything to the bank. Read more about avoiding foreclosure in Sacramento.

Yes. Gordon buys inherited Sacramento homes and properties going through probate regularly. If the estate is still in probate, Gordon can work with your attorney to time the sale appropriately. If the property has already passed to you, the process is the same as any other sale — just typically faster because there's urgency. Learn more about selling an inherited property in Sacramento.

Absolutely — and this is one of the most common situations Gordon deals with. Post-eviction properties often need significant repairs, and most traditional buyers or lenders won't touch them. Gordon buys them as-is. If there are still personal belongings left behind by the tenant, leave them — Gordon handles cleanout. Learn more about selling a rental after eviction in Sacramento.

Yes. Tax liens on a property don't prevent a cash sale — they get paid off at closing from the proceeds. Gordon deals with tax lien situations regularly and can often move fast enough to prevent further county action. Learn more about selling a house with delinquent taxes in Sacramento.

Yes, and this is a situation Gordon handles with particular care. Families in this situation need flexibility — not pressure to move fast. Gordon will work entirely on your family's timeline, close when you're ready, and can work with multiple family members or decision-makers involved in the sale.

You meet at a local Sacramento title company, review and sign the closing documents, hand over the keys, and receive your funds. Gordon handles all the paperwork beforehand so closing day is straightforward. The whole appointment typically takes under an hour.

Funds are disbursed by the title company on closing day, either by wire transfer to your bank account or by cashier's check — whichever you prefer. You don't have to wait for a buyer's mortgage to fund or for any other approval process.

Take what you want and leave the rest. Furniture, appliances, personal items, junk — Gordon handles everything after closing at no cost to you. You are not responsible for cleaning out the house unless you choose to.

Yes. Your information is never sold, shared with third parties, or used for any purpose other than preparing and presenting your cash offer. Gordon runs a small, local Sacramento business — not a data operation. Your situation stays between you and Gordon.
