    Moving for work? Don't carry two mortgages

    Your start date isn't flexible. Your home sale shouldn't be the thing that holds you back — or follows you to your new city.

    • No repairs
    • No fees or commission
    • Close in as little as 7 days
    • No obligation

    Quick answer

    SilverCrest Estates buys houses for cash from homeowners relocating for work or family, closing in as little as 7 days or on a later date of the seller's choosing so they never pay two housing costs at once.

    Is this you?

    This page is for you if…

    • You've accepted a job or transfer in another city
    • You need to move before the house could sell
    • You don't want to manage a sale from far away
    • Your relocation package doesn't cover a long listing

    Double housing costs

    Rent or a new mortgage on top of the old one.

    Managing from afar

    Showings, repairs and offers while you're gone.

    Vacant home risk

    Empty homes need insurance, care and attention.

    How we help

    Four steps, start to finish

    1. 1

      Share your move date

      We plan the closing around it.

    2. 2

      Get your offer

      Usually within 24 hours.

    3. 3

      Close before or after you go

      Stay until your move date with a post-closing occupancy if needed.

    4. 4

      Sign from anywhere

      Remote notary or e-closing where permitted.

    Timing the sale around your move

    Some sellers want the cash before they buy in the new city; others want to stay until the last day. We can close early and let you remain in the home for an agreed period, or set closing for after you've left. Leave behind furniture you don't want to ship.

    Relocation packages

    If your employer offers a relocation benefit, read the home-sale terms carefully — some require you to list first or cap the time they'll cover. A direct offer is another number to compare against.

    This page is general information, not legal, tax or financial advice. Laws and timelines differ by state. Talk to a licensed attorney, CPA or HUD-approved housing counselor about your specific situation.

    Questions

    What sellers ask us

    Often yes. We can agree on a short post-closing occupancy so you move once, on your schedule.

    Yes. Vacant homes are easy for us — we coordinate access and you sign remotely.

    Leave it. We'll take care of it after closing.

    In as little as 7 days with clear title, or any later date you pick.
