Why West Des Moines
What makes selling in West Des Moines different
West Des Moines is defined by growing suburbs on the edges while the older core neighborhoods turn over slowly. We know the neighborhoods here and buy older homes with original finishes through brand-new builds directly, as-is. Iowa's housing is largely older farmhouses, bungalows, and post-war homes, and winters are hard on roofs, basements, and foundations. Selling traditionally in a small Iowa market can mean months on the market. SilverCrest buys Iowa homes directly for cash — including flood-affected and long-vacant properties.
The typical West Des Moines home is valued around $286,300, with a median build year of 1993 — a mostly late-century stock where dated kitchens, baths and HVAC are the usual sticking points on a listing. Owner-occupancy runs about 57.4%, across a city of roughly 69,893 residents, with median property taxes near $4,586 a year. Those figures come from the U.S. Census Bureau's ACS 2023 5-Year Estimates, and they are part of how we benchmark a direct cash offer on your West Des Moines property.
- Basement, roof, and foundation issues are no problem
- No repairs and no commissions
- Close in about a week if you need to
