A note from Andy
I've been investing in real estate since 2021, buying houses that most buyers walk away from: inherited homes full of memories, houses behind on taxes, homes that need a new roof and a lot more. I renovate them, then rent them out or sell them.
Sterling Home Offer is the name we put on that work. Every house we buy gets a real renovation: a new roof when it needs one, new systems, a clean start for the next family or tenant. That is the part of the work we are proud of, and it is why we can buy a house exactly as it stands today. Every offer we send gets my sign-off, and you can reach the team on one number: (888) 260-1777.

What we stand for.
We solve house problems. Even when the answer isn't us. A loan you can't pay, a house you inherited, a move you didn't plan. If we are not the right fit, we say so and show you what else you can do.
- Like family. We listen first, explain every step and never rush you.
- Every number shown. Your offer comes with the recent sales and today's listings behind it.
- Honest advice. If listing would get you more, we tell you.
- Your pace. Close in as little as 7 days, or on your date.
- Your decision. Nothing is binding until you sign a purchase agreement.
- Help with the move. Up to $20,000 before closing and a free local move, if you qualify.
See your number. Then decide.
You get a written cash offer within 12 hours of our call, with the comps behind it. No obligation, no pressure.
- No fees or commissions
- Sold as-is
- You pick the date

Real investors who renovate homes.
We solve house problems. Even when the answer isn't us. A loan you can't pay, a house you inherited, a move you didn't plan. If we are not the right fit, we say so and show you what else you can do.
Hi, I'm Andy.
Real estate investor since 2021
I buy houses in any condition for cash, then renovate and rent or resell them. When a house isn't one I renovate, a trusted partner investor I've closed with before buys it on the same terms.
Because I pay cash, I don't wait on a bank. Behind on payments, inherited, full of belongings or falling apart: I can buy it. The offer reflects the house as it is and what it takes to resell it. I show you every number, and you pick the closing date.
My price is lower than what a fixed-up house sells for; in return I take on the repairs, the risk and the wait. I never push. If a listing would get you more, I'll say so.
Before you sell to anyone, me included, check three things
- Proof of funds. Ask any buyer for it. Mine is a bank letter in the company's name; you get it on request, before the visit.
- Where the money moves. Only at a licensed title company or closing attorney in your state. They run the title search, order your mortgage payoff, hold the funds and pay you. Nobody hands you a deed to sign at the kitchen table.
- Real projects, not stock photos. Every before-and-after on this site is a house we bought and renovated ourselves. See the projects →

How we make money.
We are a business, and we are open about it. Our money comes from the house after we fix it, never from a fee to you.
- 1We buy it as-isA fair cash price for the house as it stands today. You skip repairs, cleaning and commissions.
- 2We fix it upRoof, systems, kitchen, baths. We pay for the work and carry the risk.
- 3We rent it out or sell itThe finished house earns us a margin. That is our only income from your sale.
You never pay us a fee. No commissions, no closing costs, nothing hidden.
The honest trade-off
Our offer is lower than what a fixed-up house sells for on the open market. That gap pays for the repairs, the holding costs, the risk and the time it takes to resell. In exchange you skip repairs, commissions, showings and months of waiting, and you get a firm date. If your house is in good shape and you have time, a listing may get you more, and we will say so. Our cash offer vs. realtor page shows the math side by side.
Where your closing happens
Every sale closes at a licensed title company or attorney in your state. Here is what they do, and what we never do.
- They run the title searchA licensed title company or attorney in your state checks the title before anything is signed over.
- They hold the moneyThe purchase money sits in escrow with them. We never hold your money.
- They pay off liens, then pay youAny mortgage or liens are paid at closing, and the rest goes to you.
- No deed outside closingWe never take a deed outside that closing table. If it doesn't happen there, it doesn't happen.
Take your time. We mean it.
The Federal Trade Commission's plain advice on avoiding scams is to take your time, because a real business gives you time to decide. We agree. Our how to check us page walks through it.
- Ask for proof of funds
- Have an attorney read the contract
- Nothing is binding until you sign the purchase agreement
We give back where we buy.
Houses are how we make a living, and these neighborhoods are where our families live. Part of what we earn goes back to them, in different ways through the year.
Families in needHelp for local families going through a hard stretch, from holiday drives to everyday needs.
Safer homesRepairs and clean-ups for neighbors who cannot manage them on their own.
Local causesSchools, youth sports and community groups in the areas we buy in.
Hear it from sellers.

House needed evrything. Roof, AC, plumbing, electrical, foundation had cracks. Got a quote for 95k in repairs on a house worth maybe 180. The math wasn't mathing. Sold to sterling as is and moved on with my life. Recommend them. Really simple and without headache
★★★★★
Very easy to work with!

If youve never been thru probate consider yourself lucky. Its a mess. Sterling actually knew what they were doing which is more than I can say for the first 2 companies I called. They worked with my attorney and didnt make it harder than it already was. ✨
★★★★★
Got a job transfer with three weeks notice. Listing the house and waiting 90 days wasn't an option. Sterling gave me a cash offer on day one and let me pick the closing date. I moved on my schedule, not a realtors. Highly recommended!
★★★★★
