Common Questions
I'm already behind. Is it too late?+
Often it's not — but timing matters. The sooner you reach out, the more options you have to close before the foreclosure completes. We'll move quickly and keep everything confidential.
How is SoldHouse different from a wholesaler?+
In Illinois you can't legally wholesale houses, so we don't. SoldHouse is the actual buyer — we purchase your home with our own funds and close in our name. No middleman shopping your contract around.
Do I pay any fees or commissions?+
No. There are no agent commissions and no listing fees, and we cover most closing costs. The cash offer we make is what you walk away with — no surprise deductions.
Do I have to clean out or repair the house first?+
Not at all. We buy as-is and clean out the property for you — take what you want and leave the rest. No repairs, no junk removal, no cleaning required.
Is the $500 moving bonus real?+
Yes. When you close with us, we include a $500 credit toward a trusted local moving company to help make your move easier.
What kind of houses do you buy?+
Single-family homes, townhomes, condos, and small multifamily across Chicagoland, southern Wisconsin, and northwest Indiana — in any condition, including homes that need major repairs.
How fast can you close?+
As fast as 7 days when you need it, or on a timeline that works for you. You pick the closing date.
