Common Questions About Selling Your House to PDQ

How do you decide what to offer for my house?

We look at the property’s location, current condition, what comparable homes have sold for in the area, and what it will cost us to repair and resell it. We’re not trying to steal your house — we need to make a profit, but we’re also not going to come in with an insult offer. We’ll show you how we got to our number and you can ask questions.

Do I need to make repairs before you’ll buy?

No. We buy houses as-is. You don’t need to fix anything, clean anything out, or do any prep work. We’ve bought homes with roof damage, fire damage, animal infestations, decades of deferred maintenance, and properties that hadn’t been touched in years. Condition is not a barrier.

How fast can you close?

As fast as 7 days if needed. If you need more time — a month, two months — we can work with that too. You pick the date that works for your situation.

Do I have to pay closing costs?

No. We cover closing costs. There are no agent commissions, no fees, and no surprises at the closing table.

What if there’s a lien or back taxes on the property?

This comes up regularly. In most cases, we can still buy the property — the liens or taxes are typically resolved out of proceeds at closing. Tell us about it upfront and we’ll factor it in.

What if the house is in really bad shape?

That’s often where we can help most. Properties that are difficult or impossible to sell on the traditional market are exactly the kind of deals we’re set up to handle. If anything, severe condition issues tend to make a cash sale the most practical option.

What if I inherited the house and there are multiple heirs?

We deal with estate situations regularly. All heirs will need to be in agreement to sell, but we can work with your attorney or the estate administrator to make the process as smooth as possible. We’ve closed dozens of estate sales.

What if I’m behind on my mortgage or facing foreclosure?

Call us before the foreclosure process gets too far along. In many cases we can close fast enough to prevent the foreclosure from completing, which protects your credit. Time matters here — don’t wait.

Will you make an offer on any house?

We evaluate every property, but we’re most active in Northwest Arkansas and Newton County. If your property is outside that area, let us know and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s something we can work with.

What happens after I fill out the form?

We’ll reach out within 24 hours — usually same day. We’ll ask a few questions about the property, and if it sounds like a fit, we’ll schedule a quick walkthrough and put together a written offer. No obligation on your end.

Is there any obligation if I request an offer?

None. A cash offer from PDQ costs you nothing and obligates you to nothing. If you decide to list with a realtor or sell another way, that’s your call. We just want to make sure you know what your cash option looks like.

How is this different from listing with a realtor?

With a realtor, you typically wait 30–90 days for a buyer, pay 5–6% in commissions, negotiate repairs after inspection, and deal with financing contingencies that can fall through at the last minute. With PDQ, you get a cash offer, close when you want, and walk away with no fees deducted. The tradeoff is that a cash offer will typically be below full retail market value — we’re not pretending otherwise. Whether that tradeoff makes sense depends on your situation.

I’ve heard cash buyers offer way below market. Is that true?

Some do. We don’t lowball as a strategy. We’ve paid full appraised value on properties where the situation warranted it — estate sales with timeline pressure, properties in difficult condition where an appraisal-based offer made sense for both sides. Every deal is different. The only way to know what we’d offer on your property is to ask.
