Sacramento is built on a river floodplain, and much of the city depends on levees. Older neighborhoods like Oak Park, Land Park and Curtis Park are full of 1920s to 1950s homes, and Census estimates put about 1 in 10 city homes before 1940. Heirs who inherit a Sacramento house and don't plan to move in often face a reassessed property tax bill under Prop 19, so many decide to sell. We'll make you a cash offer as-is.
We buy houses in all 50 states. These are just some of the areas we serve. Don't see your city? We still want to hear from you.

Why Sacramento owners sell to us
We hear from heirs facing Prop 19 reassessment, landlords tired of tenant and repair costs, and owners leaving California.
See our pages for an inherited house, probate, a house that needs repairs, being a tired landlord, or a vacant house.
Probate and foreclosure in Sacramento
