Cash Sale Timeline

Day-by-Day: From First Call to Wired Funds

Cash sales move at a different speed than financed ones. There's no lender, no appraisal, no inspection contingency, no underwriter looking for reasons to deny. The only real-world bottleneck is title — and even that runs faster when the buyer is paying cash and the title company knows it.

Day 0

First contact

Phone call or form submission. Takes 5 minutes — address, condition, situation, timeline.

Day 1–2

Offer delivered

We pull comps, estimate repairs, and send a written cash offer. No appraisal, no inspection contingency.

Day 2–5

Contract signed

Standard NC offer-to-purchase contract. You sign electronically. We send earnest money to the title company.

Day 3–10

Title search

Title company orders the search, pulls payoffs, and resolves any liens or judgments. This is usually the longest step.

Day 7–14

Closing

Sign at the title company (or via mobile notary anywhere in the country). Wire or cashier's check the same day.

Frequently Asked

Questions Sellers Ask Us

What's the fastest you've ever closed?+
5 days from first call to wired funds — a foreclosure case where the auction was 7 days away. The title was clean, the seller was responsive, and we paid for a rush title search. Typical is 7–14 days.
What slows cash closings down?+
Title issues are the #1 cause: unknown liens, missing heirs on the deed, divorce decrees that never recorded, old mortgages never released. Second is seller availability — every signature day adds a day. Third is open probate.
Why is cash faster than a financed sale?+
Financed sales need: lender approval (30–45 days), appraisal (1–2 weeks), inspection contingencies (10–14 days), and underwriting (week-of-close drama). Cash skips all of it. The only required step besides title is wiring funds.
Do I need an attorney to close in NC?+
Yes — NC requires real estate closings to be supervised by a licensed attorney (not just notarized). The title company we use handles attorney coordination at no extra cost to you.
Can I pick the closing date?+
Yes. We can close as fast as 7 days or as slow as you need — 30, 60, even 90+ days. Many sellers need time to move, line up a new place, or wait for the school year to end. Your timeline, your choice.
What about closing costs?+
We pay them. No commissions, no title fees, no attorney fees, no closing fees. The offer is what you receive, minus any existing mortgage or liens (which are paid from proceeds).
Can I close remotely?+
Yes. Mobile notaries and remote online notarization (RON) let you sign from anywhere. We've closed with sellers in 20+ states, military deployments overseas, and assisted-living facilities.
