How Our Home Buying Process Works in 3 Steps
We cut out the agents and the banks, so the path from first call to cash in hand is short. Here is what to expect at each step.
Tell Us About Your Property
Fill out the form on this site or call us at (321) 241-9953. It is quick, easy, and free.
Share the address, a little about the condition, and your timeline. There is no obligation, and we never rent, sell, or share your information with anyone.
Get a Fair, Written Cash Offer Within 24 Hours
Pricing against these local factors is how we reach the strongest cash number we can responsibly offer. You get that offer in writing, usually within a day, with no pressure attached.
Close at a Local Title Company and Get Paid
Accept the offer and choose your closing date. We close at a local, reputable title company, often in as little as 7 days, and sometimes we can put a check in your hand the same day.
We handle the paperwork and cover the closing costs. You walk away with cash and nothing left hanging.
Timeframe at a glance: offer within 24 hours, closing in as few as 7 days, or whenever suits your schedule.

Cash House Buyers in Melbourne, FL: Why Sellers Choose Us
Selling for cash is not the right move for every homeowner, but for the right situation it solves problems a traditional listing cannot. Here is what working with us gets you.
- A fair cash offer in 24 hours. No waiting weeks for showings to turn into an offer.
- No fees or commissions. Since we are the buyer, the number we quote is the number you keep.
- No repairs or cleaning. We buy as-is and handle the work ourselves.
- No showings. Skip the open houses and the disruption to your life.
- You pick the closing date. Close fast or take the time you need to plan your move.
If selling on the open market would net you more and you have time to wait, that may be the better path. We will tell you honestly which option fits your situation.
Selling to Us vs. Listing With an Agent
Every seller’s situation is different. This side-by-side shows where a cash sale to us beats a traditional listing, and where it might not.
| Selling to The Honest Home Buyers | Listing With an Agent | |
| Commissions / fees | None | Around 6% of the sale price |
| Closing costs | We pay them | Often 1% to 3% on the seller |
| Repairs before sale | None, sold as-is | Usually required to attract buyers |
| Cleaning / showings | None | Ongoing showings and open houses |
| Time to offer | Within 24 hours | Varies, often weeks |
| Time to close | As little as 7 days | 30 to 60+ days after an offer |
| Risk of deal falling through | Very low, cash buyer | Financing and inspection contingencies |
| Who it suits | Speed, certainty, convenience | Maximum sale price with time to wait |
A listing can make sense when your home is in good shape and you can wait for the right retail buyer. A cash sale makes sense when speed, certainty, and skipping repairs matter more than squeezing out the last dollar.
Situations We Help Melbourne Homeowners Through
People call a cash buyer because something about the standard process does not fit their life. These are the situations we handle most often in Brevard County.
Facing Foreclosure
If you are behind on payments, a fast cash sale can settle the loan before it reaches auction and protect your credit from further damage. Time is the deciding factor here, so reach out early. Our guide on avoiding foreclosure in Brevard County walks through your options.
Going Through a Divorce
Splitting a shared home is hard enough without a months-long listing. A clean cash sale lets both parties move forward quickly with a clear, agreed number.
Selling an Inherited House
Managing a relative’s home from out of state, often with belongings still inside and probate to navigate, is a heavy lift. We buy inherited properties as-is so you can settle the estate without the cleanup. Here is how to sell a house you inherited in Melbourne.
A House That Needs Major Repairs
Fire, mold, water damage, or just years of deferred maintenance scare off retail buyers and their lenders. They do not scare us. See our guide on selling a damaged house in Melbourne.
Tenant or Landlord Headaches
A problem tenant, late rent, or a property you are simply tired of managing are all good reasons to sell. We can buy with tenants in place. Read more on how to sell your house with tenants in Melbourne.
You Have Options, Not Just One Offer
This is where we differ from most investors. If selling fast for cash is your goal, you skip the repairs, the out-of-pocket costs, and the prep work entirely.
If listing on the market would serve you better, we can help with that route too, and work to sell your house for top dollar to a traditional buyer. Either way, you get a clear picture of both paths before you decide.
That honest guidance is the reason most of our business comes from referrals. Get to know The Honest Home Buyers and see if we are the right fit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do you really buy houses in any condition?
A: Yes. We buy houses that need major repairs, homes with fire, mold, or water damage, and properties still full of belongings. You do not have to clean or fix a single thing before selling.
Q: How much will you offer for my house?
A: We base every offer on local market data and the after-repair value of your home, which lets us give you the strongest cash number we can. There is no obligation to accept, so you are free to compare it against other options.
Q: Are there any fees or commissions?
A: No. Because we are the buyer, there are no agent commissions, no service fees, and no closing costs on your end. The offer we present is what you keep.
Q: How fast can you close on a house in Melbourne?
A: We can close in as little as 7 days through a local title company once you accept the offer. If you need more time to plan your move, you choose the closing date.
Q: Do you only buy in Melbourne?
A: No. Melbourne is our home base, but we buy houses throughout Brevard County and the wider Orlando area. If you do not see your town listed, call and ask, because we likely still buy there.
