Yes, we buy houses across South and Central Florida for cash, as-is. You get a written offer within 12 hours of our call with the comps behind it, pay no commissions, fees or closing costs, and close as fast as 7 days when the title is clear, or on your date. Closing happens at a licensed Florida title company or attorney. Homes in 55+ communities and mobile homes on rented land are not a fit, and we say so up front.
We're not attorneys or tax advisors. Florida probate, insurance claims and tax questions belong with a Florida probate attorney, your insurer or a CPA. We handle the sale.
Yes. The written offer shows the comparable sales and our repair estimate, so you can check every number.
As-is means exactly that. No roof repair, no permit chase, no cleaning, no showings. Leave the furniture, the storm shutters in the garage and the boxes in the Florida room. We renovate the house after closing and then rent it out or sell it.
You pick the closing date. As fast as 7 days when the title is clear, or weeks out if you need time. If you qualify, you can get up to $20,000 before closing once you sign, stay up to 14 days after closing for free, and get a free local move or a free cleanout. Read how it works step by step, or see what selling as-is covers.
Most of the houses we buy are in South and Central Florida: Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Duval, Lee, Polk, Brevard and Volusia counties. We also look at houses in the counties around them.
Send the address, we confirm within minutes. Outside these counties, and outside Florida, we still buy when the numbers work (we have crews in other states too); now and then a trusted partner investor is the buyer instead of us, and we tell you that before you sign. If we can't make an offer at all, we say so on the first call and don't waste your time.
Our local pages go deeper on the three counties where we buy most: Fort Lauderdale and Broward County, Miami and Miami-Dade, and West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County. Everywhere else in Florida, a house in Lakeland gets the same written offer, the same title-company closing and the same phone number: (888) 260-1777. See all the states we buy in.
Not a fit: homes in 55+ communities, mobile homes on rented land or in a park, and houses already listed with an agent. Everything else, send the address.
You get a written cash offer within 12 hours of our call, with the comps behind it. No obligation, no pressure.
A few things are different in Florida. Here is what they mean for you when you sell to us.
Our offer is lower than a fixed-up retail price. In exchange you skip repairs, commissions, showings and months of waiting. We show the math.
At closing, the title company pays off the mortgage, any property taxes, HOA or code liens, and the documentary stamp tax we cover for you. What's left is yours, by wire or check the same day. There are no fees from us at any point. If you took the advance before closing (if you qualify), it comes out of the proceeds at closing, and you see that line on the closing statement before you sign.
Compare that with a listing where the agent commission, seller closing costs and buyer repair credits come off the top. Our cash offer vs. realtor page lays both paths side by side, and tells you when a listing wins.

I had a great experience working with Sterling Home Offer. Their communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and they made everything simple and stress-free. The team was professional, responsive, and very easy to work with. I truly appreciated how smoothly everything went and would definitely recommend them to others!
My mom passed and left me her house in Fort Lauderdale. I live out of state and had no idea where to start. Andy walked me through every step, and I never had to fly down. Sterling Home Offer handled the cleanout and the paperwork. Honest people, easy to work with
Working with Sterling Home Offer has been efficient and fun!

Yes, including a denied or open insurance claim; the roof and water damage are priced into the written offer, as the cards above explain. If a claim is still open, tell us, and the title company and your insurer sort out who gets what at closing.
Yes. One short visit by our team confirms the condition, the title company arranges remote signing where Florida rules allow it, and your money arrives by wire.
As fast as 7 days when the title is clear, or on your date; in probate we sign now and close when the court allows the sale. If you qualify, you can also stay up to 14 days after closing, free.
We do. That includes the documentary stamp tax on the deed, which Florida Statutes s. 201.02 imposes and the Florida Department of Revenue lists the rate for, and which the seller customarily pays, plus the title and settlement fees. The only amounts that come off your price are a mortgage or liens the title company pays off.
Yes. Condos and townhouses are fine, and so are mobile homes when the land comes with them. We pass on homes in 55+ communities and mobile homes on rented land or in a park; the full list is in the section above. Single-family houses, duplexes and small multi-units, send the address.
Often you can sign the purchase agreement now and close once the court gives the personal representative authority to sell. The Florida Bar's probate pamphlet describes a shorter summary administration for smaller estates and a formal administration for the rest. Your probate attorney confirms which applies. More on our inherited house page.
You can still sell. The title company pays the back taxes, HOA liens and any code fines from the sale at closing. You don't bring money. If the liens add up to more than the offer, we tell you honestly before you sign. See selling with back taxes.
Not to us. We buy houses that are uninsured, have an old roof or failed a four-point inspection. It changes nothing about the offer process: same written offer within 12 hours of our call, same closing at a licensed title company. After closing, insuring the house is our problem, not yours.
Yes. The written offer, the comps, the proof of funds and the visit cost you nothing, and nothing is binding until you sign a purchase agreement.
Yes. Flood zone, an older roof, past water in the house: we price it as it is and insure it ourselves after closing. Tell us about any past flooding on the first call so the repair estimate holds after the visit.
You can still sell. Code fines and liens are paid from the sale at closing by the title company, and an open case or unpermitted work becomes part of our renovation after closing. Tell us about it on the first call so the written offer accounts for it.
