View the Linares Street transactionOther areas we consider
Outside our main buying area?
We also consider houses in Kern, Ventura and San Luis Obispo counties. These are outside our usual buying area, but we are open to buying there when the property is a good fit. Send us the address, the condition of the house and your preferred timing so we can see whether we can help.
Considered case by case
Kern County
Have a house to sell in Kern County? You are welcome to ask us about it, even though the county is outside our regular buying area. We consider properties here individually rather than ruling them out because of their location.
Start with the address and a brief description of the house. Let us know about repairs it needs and when you would like to sell so we can review whether it is a fit.
A completed Bakersfield transaction
Siena Lane
The owner compared offers before moving forward. Our team arranged the property inspection and opened escrow.
Considered case by case
Ventura County
We are open to buying in Ventura County when the property makes sense for our team. It is not part of our usual five-county service area, so please check with us about your house before making plans around a sale to us.
Send the address, the current condition and your preferred timing. You do not need to see your city listed on this page to get in touch.
A completed Oxnard transaction
Mainsail Lane
The owner was preparing to move out of state, and the house needed updating. Our team coordinated the sale and key handoff with escrow.
Considered case by case
San Luis Obispo County
Selling a house in San Luis Obispo County? Being outside our main buying area does not automatically put your property out of consideration. We are happy to hear about it and assess whether we can help.
For a house in a small town or a rural location, please include the full property address rather than only the city name. Tell us a little about the house and your plans for selling; we will need to review the individual property before deciding whether to move forward.
A completed Shandon transaction
El Portal Drive
A small home on its own lot. Our team arranged the purchase and agreed with the existing tenant that they could continue renting after the sale.
These past sales are examples, not a guarantee that every property in these counties will be a fit. You are welcome to ask about your address.
