Lockwood Home Buyers

Situations we handle

Every seller's situation is different. We buy houses in each of the situations below — pick yours to see how it works.

inherited

Inheriting a house often arrives with a long list of decisions: clearing personal property, handling out-of-state logistics, sometimes settling a deceased relative's estate.

probate

Houses tied up in probate can still be sold for cash, but the process has more moving parts than a typical sale.

foreclosure

When the foreclosure clock is running, the timeline matters as much as the offer.

divorce

Selling a marital home during divorce is typically about speed, fairness, and minimizing the friction between two parties who often want very different outcomes.

behind on payments

Falling behind on payments doesn't have to end in foreclosure.

tenant occupied

We actually like tenant-occupied property — instant cash flow from day one, no vacancy or marketing period.

vacant house

Vacant houses get more expensive every month: utilities, taxes, insurance, and the slow deterioration of an unoccupied building.

damaged house

Damaged property scares off most retail buyers, but it's exactly what we want.

job relocation

When a job move forces a tight timeline, a traditional 60-120 day MLS listing rarely lines up with your start date.

medical bills

Major medical expenses force fast decisions about every asset on the balance sheet — and a house is usually the biggest.

downsizing retirement

When you're ready to right-size into something smaller or move closer to family, the last thing you want is six months of showings and a listing agent walking strangers through your home.

back taxes

Owing back property taxes doesn't stop you from selling — but it does compress the timeline before the county can move to tax sale.
