    Foundation, roof or mold? No repairs required

    Big structural problems are where traditional deals fall apart — after the inspection. We price them in up front so there's nothing to renegotiate.

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

    Quick answer

    SilverCrest Estates buys houses with foundation damage, failing roofs, black mold and other major structural problems as-is for cash, pricing the repairs into the offer up front so there are no inspection renegotiations.

    Is this you?

    This page is for you if…

    • An inspection found foundation or structural issues
    • The roof is failing or leaking
    • There's visible mold or a moisture problem
    • A previous buyer backed out after inspection

    Deals die at inspection

    Buyers renegotiate or walk away.

    Lenders say no

    FHA and VA appraisals flag safety issues.

    Repairs are expensive

    And often uncover more problems.

    Disclosure still matters

    Most states require sellers to disclose known material defects, even in an as-is sale. Tell us what you know; it doesn't scare us and it protects you. Your state's disclosure form or a real estate attorney can tell you exactly what's required.

    Why structural issues kill traditional sales

    Government-backed loans set minimum property standards for safety and soundness. When an appraiser or inspector flags foundation movement, active leaks or mold, the deal may stall until repairs are made. A cash purchase skips that requirement entirely.

    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

    Yes. Foundation problems are one of the most common reasons sellers call us.

    No. Share anything you already know and we'll account for it.

    Our goal is to see the issue before we put the final offer in writing, so the number holds.

    Generally yes. Disclosure laws apply even to as-is sales. Ask an attorney if you're unsure.
